Sylvia Tamale
The youth in Ugandan are challenged to really understand the current issues of the nation before they are swiftly taken up by the promises of the politicians in the current campaigns. Giving her keynote speech at the youth African leadership initiative Uganda forum today, Dr. Sylvia Tamale reminded the youth that the current situation in Uganda is not new and a deep thought on the situation mainly by the youth has to be taken in if the nation is to register change and have a better government.
Dr. Tamale notes that unless the youth get to the bottom of the problems and internalize them then nothing better is soon coming in this nation. She further advises them to desist from being used to champion political violence but instead work towards taking this nation into the right direction.
At the meeting, the youth demanded from the leaders good governance and inclusive political participation from all citizens.
