A baby who tries to walk and falls is not a failure; it is simply learning. This is how a nation builds itself—through a process of trying, falling and rising again. I am pleased that Tuhiriwe Tailoring Group has started on this journey. They now aspire to shift from the service sector to manufacturing. This shift from service to manufacturing marks significant progress. I also reminded them to utilise ekibaro, because it is essential to track what you invest and what you gain. That is how you foster growth, it is not about guesswork. Wealth creation is not a mystery, it is rooted in mathematics, discipline, and time. We will support them as they grow.

We urgently need to review our election calendar & ammend the law accordingly. Long periods of electioneering are a serious threat to production in all livelihood sectors. In particular, food security will be compromised. We must allow people time to work.@norbertmao @KiryowaKk

In response to the question on how can women leaders increase their visibility in media addressing the issues affecting women. @LINDAIRENE17 responded that, First of all Women leaders need to embrace doing research,and be informed so that they can give well informed statements

In response to the question posed as to how women in leadership can increase visibility of the issues faced by women in the media, the honorable MP @LINDAIRENE17 responded saying that the women called to these media houses need to be informed firstly. #WomenInPowerUG

We need values. The missing link is values:traditional values. Values of integrity. We cry of corruption yet the people we admire are those who have stolen and built mansions and look down on the humble honest hard workers. #WomenInPowerUg

The honorable member of parliament @LINDAIRENE17 also says the parliamentarians need to go back to their constituencies and consult with their voters to find out what is wrong and how best to solve it. #WomenInPowerUG
