President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, also the National Resistance Movement (NRM) Presidential flag bearer, stressed the importance of free education in government schools.

“Those who don’t support my policy of free education are creating a time bomb, conserving ignorance, and destroying the future of our children along with their potential. You have seen in just six months in the Presidential Skilling Hubs what these children are producing,” he said.

The President who was in the company of the First Daughter, Mrs. Natasha Karugire Museveni, made the remarks on Tuesday November 11, 2025 while addressing a campaign rally in Kapchorwa district.
