- “PROMOTE POLITICS OF INTEREST FOR STABILITY” - PRESIDENT
MUSEVENI URGES AFRO-ARAB YOUTH COUNCIL MEMBERS
H.E Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has appealed to the members of the Afro-
Arab Youth Council to promote politics of interest in order to maintain
peace and stability among member countries.
“As a powerful youth group, you should strengthen that idea and spread
it,” he said.
President Museveni made the remarks today while meeting a delegation
from the Afro-Arab Youth Council at State Lodge-Nakasero.
The President said unlike politics of interest, the politics of identity which
is mostly based on tribes and religions is counterproductive, diversionary
and at most times, it's the cause of political instability in countries.
“When I went to Sudan, I told them that they are going to destroy their
country because of different ideas. There's no Islamic hunger and
Christian hunger. If you are hungry, you are hungry. I told them to look at
people's needs instead of identity. Now Sudan is being destroyed
because of wrong ideas. A country like Lebanon was destroyed and sub-
divided over religious differences,” he explained.
H.E Museveni revealed that in 1962, Uganda faced the same problem of
identity whereby no political party could get majority vote in elections
because all of them had been formed based on religions and tribes.
However, President Museveni was happy to note that Uganda managed
to overcome the wrong Ideology because the country had enough time
to debate and discuss on how to balance the right ideas.
“For instance, we have a three-language policy, we can use English in
the offices, but we also use Swahili as a regional language and in the
districts, they use their indigenous languages; so you will not get a
problem that our language is being suppressed,” he noted.
“What is important is interest not identity because Ideology is like
medicine. When you look at a patient, you must diagnose his sickness, if
you don't get the correct diagnosis, there's no way you can get a correct
prescription,” he added.
President Museveni further urged the youth to act as advocates and
connect African and Arab countries to cooperate in areas of business.
He also pledged support to the Afro-Arab Youth Council to ensure that
they set up their International Headquarters in Ssisa- Nakawuka.
“As your Patron and chief fundraiser, I will write to member countries for
contributions,” the President assured.
The Afro-Arab Youth Council president, Dr. Abdul Haddi Lahweeji
informed President Museveni that as a youth organisation, they aim at
preserving peace and Independence of member states as well as
improve the lives of people socially and economically.
“This Council is the bridge between the Arab world and African
countries, and we want African youth to know that the future of Africa is
within their hands,” said Dr. Haddi.
“Two thirds of Arabs are in Africa and our major mission is the joint
cooperation of the Afro-Arab people and through you Your Excellency,
we want to participate in the Arab-Africa summit that is going to take
place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. As the Patron of the council, you are the
voice of these youth in the Arab world and Africa and yesterday Your
message was very clear to the youth, it was about Education, skills
development, Ideology and good behaviour,” he added.
Dr. Haddi further requested that during the summit, the organisers permit
them to have a side summit for the youth.
In response, President Museveni assured the delegation that he will
write to the government of Saudi Arabia to grant them permission.
Dr. Haddi on the other hand told the President that they were designing
a number of developmental programs with the Ministry of Gender,
Labour and Social Development to support the youth and girl child in
Uganda.
“We are also organising a caravan where we are going to come and
provide scholastic materials to the children because primary education is
very important for the development of the country. We are coordinating
businesspeople to provide about 50,000 school bags for school children
in Uganda. In that caravan we also plan to mobilise specialised doctors
from different countries to carry out a medical camp.”
He also thanked President Museveni for his continued support and
guidance towards the organisation.
The meeting was attended by; Dr Abbas Agaba, the Afro-Arab Youth
Council Secretary General, Hon. Amina Hilmi, the Deputy Secretary
General, Hon. Ebenezer Oyetakin, Chairperson Audit and Advisory
Committee, Hon. Alfred Muzawake, Coordinator Southern Africa, Hon.
Lisper Machoka, Coordinator Eastern Africa, Dr. Ibrahim Ssali, Moroccan
Consulate in Uganda, Ms. Priscilla Manganyi, among other delegates.

The problem we face in Arab countries is the language barrier
They have never had respect for black people or Africa❤
Even Africans see no respect, or value in their own identity.
Our so called educated despise their own image and embrace foreign ones. Someone would rather have 5 European, or Arabic names than being proud of their own. Mental slavery is still Africa's number one enemy. We are killing each over foreign beliefs, and stay devided by tribalism a cross the continent, which gives external parasites a soft ground to exploit and enslave us. So sad.
Who would respect you unconditionally - the White Christian Missionaries?
