Secretary General of the National Resistance Movement, Justine Kasule Lumumba has lauded the National Secretariat for patriotism corps for reminding Ugandans their history which is very key in nation building.
Lumumba says Uganda being a young population, it is paramount to have programmes – like patriotism that doesn’t only encourage them to love their country but teaches them what happened before they were born.
Lumumba was this Saturday officiating at the pass-out of hundreds of youth in Kasambya Constituency, Mubende district who have undergone patriotism training organised by the national secretariat for the patriotism corps.
“It’s proper for all Ugandans to know where we have come from as a country because it propels us to love and protect our achievements,” she said.
Lumumba lectured the thousands of youth gathered for the camp on what Uganda expects from them as patriots.
“We shouldn’t be reminded to love our country, it should rather be something we freely feel proud to do,” she explained.
The Secretary General also applauded the residents of Kasambya Constituency for overwhelmingly voting NRM in the recent village local council elections and argued them to continue supporting the ruling party and president Yoweri Kaguta Museveni. In the recent elections NRM won all the LCI seats in Kasambya.
