Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>President Museveni has once again lashed out at Europeans whom he accused of meddling in the affairs of Uganda to the extent of trying to teach him how to conduct elections.<\/b><\/p>\n

While officiating at the fourth Youth Business Forum and Expo at Kololo Ceremonial Grounds yesterday, Mr Museveni, said: \u201cThese Europeans, they come to me and want to educate me on how to conduct elections. I know how to handle elections, it\u2019s me to teach them….,\u201d he said adding, \u201cYou are the people that come to someone\u2019s house and start telling him how to organise his house. You start saying that this chair has to be here.\u201d<\/p>\n

The European Union (EU) and United States in April 2021 called for an independent probe into the polls won by Mr Museveni who secured his sixth term after defeating his closest rival Mr Robert Kyagulanyi, the president of the National Unity Platform. A series of perceived human rights abuses dominated the polls.<\/p>\n

The President also commented on the issue of same-sex relationships<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were asking me to leave the homosexuals, I know how to handle these homosexuals. You people should leave me alone,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr Museveni on May 26, signed into law the Anti-homosexual Act, 2023 which criminalised homosexuality.<\/p>\n

The law has since attracted numerous reactions and actions from the international community with the latest being the World Bank Group (WB), which halted $1.8 billion (about Shs6.7 trillion) development projects until the government repealed it<\/p>\n

To avoid what he called unnecessary diversions which will end up leaving Uganda behind, Mr Museveni asked the youth to exploit major key human needs including; food, clothing, shelter and security, and turn them into opportunities.<\/p>\n

He also promised to meet with leaders and discuss how youth can access funds from the Uganda Development Bank. Mr Museveni was responding the Chairperson of the Parliamentary Forum on Youth Affairs, Ms Phionah Nyamutoro, who said it is difficult for youth to access finance.<\/p>\n
