President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has urged countries and leaders not to use their progress in science and technology for parasitism.


President Museveni made call today while officiating at the opening of the 27th Conference of Speakers and Presiding Officers of the Commonwealth (CSPOC) at Munyonyo Commonwealth Resort, Kampala.

According to Museveni, when the dangerous illusion of empires/imperialism was defeated, the elders of the countries that had been part of the British empire decided not to throw away completely some aspects they had got from the British like the English language, the concept of representative government, among others and that is how the association of Commonwealth came in place. Museveni also urged leaders/ actors to stop manipulating and lecturing other societies that are different from theirs on what they should do.

The Speaker of Parliament, Anita Among said hosting the conference in Kampala is a remarkable milestone in the legislative history of Uganda.
