The State Minister for ICT and National Guidance Hon. Godfrey Baluku Kabyanga has implored local leaders to sensitize the population about the need to embrace poultry keeping as a way of enhancing their income.
He made the remarks while officiating at the launch of the Good Life United Big Family, a community based Association with an objective of promoting love, unity and socio-economic transformation among the members in Bukonzo County.
In his address at Katojo Primary School in Nyakiyumbu sub-county in Kasese District this week, Kabyanga implored the local leaders to encourage the local community to engage in poultry keeping as an alternative source of income for improved livelihoods.
Kabyanga noted that he gets disappointed when he sees many of the crates of eggs being sold in DR-Congo imported from other neighboring districts, saying he had lobbied Government for a chicken feed mill machine that would help the local community to promote poultry.
