President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda said
that if begging saves countries, Africa and South America will be better.
He announced this on Wednesday, November 27
when he participated in the Ateker Festival, which brought together people from
the tribe known as Ateker from the countries of Uganda, Kenya, South Sudan and
Ethiopia.
Museveni said that although it is good to think
about culture, Africa should work together and develop itself, instead of
relying on others to help it.
He said, “When begging makes countries
thrive, all African countries are prosperous. We asked the Africans the same as
those in South America."
Museveni said that Africans should develop
knowledge, do things that make others need them or need what they have done
because it has added value.
