John Walakira

Today at National Livestock Resources Research Institute in Namulonge, I commissioned Uganda’s first locally developed anti-tick vaccine, NAROVAC-ATV1. This is a lasting solution to tick-borne diseases that have affected our cattle keepers for a long time. The cow now kills the tick. This innovation reduces reliance on toxic acaricides and lowers the cost of livestock production. It is part of Uganda’s movement into science-led transformation. I congratulate our scientists and reaffirm government support to strengthen research for national development.
