Odrek Rwabwogo, Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee on Exports and Industrial Development (PACEID), has strongly rejected allegations by Kasambya County MP Daudi Kabanda over land ownership and investment projects in Kiruhura District.Speaking in response to the claims, Rwabwogo said he was “deeply hurt” by what he described as false accusations, arguing that many people had judged him without understanding his work and commitment to Uganda’s development.
He defended the Nshaara Industrial Park, saying it was established to promote agro-industrialisation, create jobs and provide markets for farmers, not for personal gain. Rwabwogo explained that planned investments, including a major abattoir, faced setbacks due to the COVID-19 pandemic, cattle supply shortages and delays in export certification.
He also dismissed claims that dairy farmers had gone unpaid, saying his milk factory has bought milk worth more than Shs11 billion over the past nine years and now pays farmers directly after an intermediary allegedly mismanaged funds.Rwabwogo accused his critics of ignoring investments that improve livelihoods and instead choosing political attacks. He maintained that he remains committed to supporting farmers, expanding Uganda’s exports and promoting unity, insisting he will not be intimidated by what he called baseless allegations.(For adverts, inquiries news, send us a message on +211929244599)
