Thousands of youth leaders from greater Masaka districts have arrived today Tuesday 5th, December, 2023 at St. Charles Lwanga Kasasa Senior Secondary Secondary in Kalungu district to attend a three-day ideological work camp organized by the ruling party Secretariat.
The camp according to NRM officials is aimed at orienting youths into becoming responsible future leaders in their communities and to the nation at large.
The NRM director of mobilisation, Hon. Rosemary Nansubuga Seninde said that the program which will officially begin tomorrow will enrich the youth with all round knowledge in using leadership to address the social problems of society like poverty, ignorance and disease.
“We seek to empower our aspiring leaders with ideological orientation, positive mindset and leadership skill in order to enable them participate in productive politics and social – economic transformation of the country, through supporting government programs,” Seninde said.
Hon. Seninde added that at times the youth are misled not because of their wish but due to wrong guidance from some groups hence, forming negative mindsets and perception about the government.
She invited all youth leaders across all religious, cultural and political institutions who hail from Kalungu, Bukomansimbi, Masaka districts and Masaka city to participate.
The Director of communication at the NRM Secretariat, Hon. Emmanuel Dombo reiterated that the youth retreat will empower young people to know their responsibility and also provide platform where they can exchange ideas on the government programs like the Parish Development Model and other wealth creation projects within their communities.
He committed that the facilitators will take responsibility to teach them, train them and show them what they are supposed to do to benefit from government.
The retreat will end on Friday 8th this week.
