Uganda’s President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has been honoured with the ‘Revolutionary Leader of All Times’ Award at the Pan African Pyramid (PAP) Global Awards 2024, held on Saturday at Fairway Hotel in Kampala.
The vibrant event, which brings together Pan-Africanists from around the world, was organized by PAP Speaker and Chairman Andrew Irumba Katusabe. It honoured President Museveni, City Tycoon Dr. Sudhir Ruparelia, and other Pan-Africanists for their unwavering contributions to preserving, promoting African culture as well Africa’s development.
President Museveni’s award was received by his Senior Presidential Advisor and Personal Assistant at the Office of the National Chairman (ONC) Kyambogo, Hajjat Hadijah Namyalo Uzeiye.
Hajjat Namyalo in her remarks noted that her boss, the President, deserved the recognition because for years he has been a vocal proponent of free education for African children, tightened nuts against LGBTQ, and preached tirelessly against bad governance practices that have bled bloody conflicts and insecurities in most Africa states.
”Museveni is applauded by righteous-minded world leaders for protecting African children when he stood his ground and signed anti-LGBTQ Bill into law, criminalizing anti humane behaviors that aim at destroying African Societies. Because of Museveni and the Parliament, Uganda is now used as a benchmark by many world countries who seek to deal with the ugly monster,” SPA Namyalo noted.
”Museveni’s commitment to Pan-Africanism is also reflected in his role as a mediator and peacekeeper in various regional conflicts. He has been instrumental in brokering peace agreements in countries such as Sudan, South Sudan, Kenya, Somalia, Burundi, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, viewing regional stability as essential for the continent’s progress,” she added.
At the same awards ceremony, Dr Sudhir Ruparelia, the Honorary Consul of Nepal to Uganda and Real Estate Mogul also received the Lifetime Achiever award as the Pan African Entrepreneur of All Times for his unmatched investment on the Ugandan soil and Africa at large.
