Gen Museveni's key achievements for the Republic of Uganda.

Yoweri Kaguta Museveni is the president of the Republic of Uganda since 1986.
Museveni’s greatest achievement was to stabilize the political dispensation. This is reflected in three critical areas where Uganda’s state fragility was most reflected: incessant military coups and civil wars. Museveni ended these and reestablished the state’s monopoly over the exercise of violence. This allowed him to build a stable and continuous presidency that has lasted nearly three and a half decades. To achieve these aims, Museveni took effective personal control over the security apparatus and disciplined the army, making it subordinate to his personal will.
He also ensured good relations with the western powers (much about this later), and established some degree of individual freedom. Museveni’s second greatest achievement has been to initiate economic growth and to sustain it over 34 years.
Uganda’s economy has grown at an annual average rate of nearly 7% during his presidency, making it among the best performing economies in the world. GDP has expanded from under US$4 billion (after correcting for distortions engendered by the official exchange rate that existed in 1986 and then adjusting this to inflation) to US$34 billion today. That is a performance few nations across time and space have registered over such a long period.

Bushenyi-Ishaka Municipality Here is a young leader @kabuura who is thriving to take all the communities together and uplifting of the constituency. please give him chance to serve you by voting him.  He is an excellent candidate. I support him wholeheartedly and will vote for him without hesitation because I believe he is the best candidate in this election. His policies proposals are the proof that he is the best candidate for our constituency and the NRM party.
