President Yoweri Museveni remains to be one of the cool presidents in Africa.
Saying the man is down to earth may be an understatement considering how he has spent so many moments on the soil than on the red carpet.
While South Africa were busy removing a corruption tainted president Jacob Zuma, President Museveni was busy harvesting from his fan in Uganda, like nothing was happening to his fellow.
Museveni has been one of the rogue presidents in Africa considering that his government has been autocratic and supported corruption cartels.
Museveni has literary send Ugandans to dogs at the expense of his poor leadership skills.
Kawumu in Luweero District was a special place in the protracted struggle against bad governance that brought the NRM to power. I was pleased to be back here today as we focus on the fight against poverty among Ugandan households. pic.twitter.com/L3wjaZ78mv

In October 2016, I started a demonstration farm here in Kawumu to put in practice what I have been talking about as the four-acre model. pic.twitter.com/PW5uBYl9pX

At that time, we were experiencing an extended drought and I talked to people about adapting some rudimentary methods like drip irrigation using plastic water bottles to keep the crops alive. Those who heeded my advice must be happy. They should be harvesting like me. pic.twitter.com/ssXjiVVvwJ

Today, 16 months later and with consistent bottle irrigation, the farm is yielding results. We are now harvesting tomatoes, passion fruits, mushrooms, pineapples and matooke alongside fish, chicken and dairy products. pic.twitter.com/u8If26zrn6
