The Sembabule District (NRM) Youth Chairman who is also the aspiring District Youth chairperson Nayebale David has urged residents and youths to stay indoors to prevent an “overwhelming” spread of coronavirus, taking his strongest stance yet against the pandemic that has killed over 50,000 worldwide and infected nearly 100,000 so far.
“This is a deadly disease my people, we have to stay in our homes, we have to keep a healthy distance,” Nayebare said, warning that the health system may not be able to cope with a mass outbreak of cases, although Uganda has so far registered fewer cases than other countries.
“If we don’t stay inside our homes the number of infection cases could shoot up, and it would saturate our hospitals,” he said.
“It would be overwhelming let’s follow the ministry of health and Presidential guidelines,” he added.

Besides that, Mr. Nayebale has been addressing youths challenges in the district, sensitizing them to be hardworking as well as advising youths to always welcome, engage and support government funded programs.
“You see Mbabazi, statistically, agriculture is the predominant sector of employment in Uganda providing employment to about 66 percent of the workforce. The services and industrial sectors employ about 28 percent and 7 percent of the labor force, respectively. Despite the bulk youth employment in agriculture, less than 5 percent of those in agriculture are in wage-paying jobs. The majority are engaged as subsistence family workers with no wages accruing to them. Similarly, informal employment accounts for the highest proportion of employed youths outside agriculture but once we sensitize our youth on modern agriculture as government support supports us, our youth would be the richest in Uganda and this is what am upto. We shall achieve it together,” he said.

There are several projects youths can engage in, NRM government is looking foward to improve youths livelihood. As youths, shall achieve our goal am sure. Projects like Cattle rearing for milk production, poultry, piggery and more are among projects am looking forward to bringing to our youths.
