Sarah Nakitende, the deputy RDC for Nakaseke, has urged leaders at all levels to adopt the ‘Musevenomics’ theory, saying using the theory reduces wasteful public expenditure.
Speaking at the opening of a ‘Musevenomics’ workshop at Nakaseke Vocational Institute in Butalangu, Nakitende commended the initiative to Bbeg Media.
“I applaud the Musevenomics secretariat for creating a platform where Ugandans can plan effectively, from parish to national levels, focusing on public priorities rather than squandering resources on non-essentials,” Nakitende stated.
She said Musevenomics forums have reached 20 districts across Uganda, enabling citizens to engage with government programs such as the Parish Development Model (PDM), Operation Wealth Creation, and Emyooga.
Nakitende urged leaders to diligently monitor these programmes to curb rising cases of corruption and misuse of public funds, which she described as taxpayers’ money.
Dr. Edward Katende, the chief executive officer of the National Development Forum (NDF), called on local leaders to promote the Musevenomics theory to ensure its effective dissemination to the public.
The theory, he said, addresses these six critical questions:
- What was Uganda’s economy like in 1900 at the onset of colonialism?
- What was the state of Uganda’s economy in 1962 at the end of colonial rule?
- What was the extent of the economic collapse between 1971 and 1986?
- What was Uganda’s economy like in 1986?
- What is the current state of Uganda’s economy, and why?
- What should Uganda’s economy look like as a fully modernized nation?
