As we implement the Financial Year 2026/27 Budget, we must remain focused on Uganda’s strategic goal of socio-economic transformation. Our economy is growing at 6.4% and is projected to expand to 10.2% next year, driven in part by petroleum. By fully utilizing our vast potential, taking advantage of the African market, and ensuring that every household joins the money economy, we shall create prosperity for all Ugandans.

I once again wish to thank H.E. Gen. @KagutaMuseveni, President of the Republic of Uganda, for the opportunity to continue serving the people of Uganda as Prime Minister.
I appreciate the Rt. Hon. Speaker @ObothOboth and Hon. Members of @Parliament_Ug for approving my appointment as Prime Minister and Leader of Government Business in Parliament today.
I strongly believe that, under the wise and visionary leadership of His Excellency President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, we will protect and build on our collective gains for nationwide socio-economic transformation of our people during this new term and beyond.
The priorities of Government are very clear, as outlined in the National Development Plan IV and the 2026-2031 NRM Manifesto, aimed at creating wealth, improving household incomes, and expanding our economy from an estimated USD 68.4 billion as of the end of June 2026 to USD 500 billion by 2040.
I pledge continued commitment, collaboration, and teamwork during this “No Corruption, No More Sleep” term of office as our country takes a qualitative leap into the Upper Middle-Income status. @OPMUganda @GovUganda @StateHouseUg

Uganda warmly welcomes H.E. Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema, President of the Gabonese Republic, upon his arrival for the Swearing-in Ceremony of H.E. the President-elect @KagutaMuseveni.
His presence in Kampala reflects the growing spirit of African solidarity and high-level cooperation between Uganda and Gabon, two nations committed to peace, stability, constitutional governance, and the renewal of Africa’s development agenda. President Oligui Nguema’s leadership also marks an important chapter in Gabon’s return to constitutional order following the country’s recent political transition.

After a full day of engagements in Entebbe, I proceeded to Speke Resort Munyonyo with Natasha, where I hosted Their Excellencies and other distinguished guests at a State Dinner ahead of tomorrow’s swearing-in ceremony.
I welcomed them to Uganda, a country strategically located at the centre of the world and naturally positioned as a regional hub. From Munyonyo, our guests were able to experience the beauty of our country, our pleasant climate and the uniqueness of our geography.
I thank them for honouring our invitation and for the solidarity they continue to show Uganda.
