President Hakainde To Strengthen Bilateral Links With Uganda

President Hakainde Hichilema has promised to strengthen bilateral ties between Zambia and Uganda.

President Hichilema stated that Zambia and Uganda's bilateral connections have grown from strength to strength in all sectors of the economy.

He added that Zambia is now preparing to explore additional areas of collaboration with Uganda, such as agriculture.

Mr. Hichilema noted that with continuous reports of conflicts in other countries, the need for food will rise, necessitating the need for nations with agricultural potential, such as Zambia and Uganda, to grow more food and assist others.

“We admire Uganda’s strides in the agriculture sector, some of the gains made are important to us, and will ensure that agriculture takes position in the country because we have resource empowerment as you know the world needs more food, with wars rising around now, more people need to be supported,” he said.
