MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

H.E YOWERI KAGUTA MUSEVENI
PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF UGANDA

Cassava has got a lot of Value! When mixed with millet flour produces a very good mbumburi (millet big lump-feeling endiiro - millet food basket), with some elasticity, as you eat it. We, the surviving authentic Africans, this is what we eat.

With our Europeanized people who eat bread made of Wheat, it is proposed that a certain percentage of the bread must be cassava by law.

Cassava is also needed by the pharmaceutical industry to make tablets. Much of the tablet is not medicine. It is starch carrier for the medicine. Our Pharmaceutical industries have been importing such starch from India - thus rendering our medicine expensive.

Cassava can be turned into ethanol for cooking purposes. it is also needed for animal feeds. Starch is needed in textile factories.

I therefore call upon Ministries of; Finance, Science and Technology, Agriculture Animal Industry and Fisheries that we should support such initiatives
