President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has launched the construction of a school building named after his brother Salim Saleh.
Before heading to the ongoing retreat of the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) MPs and independents at the National Leadership Institute (Nali) in Kyankwanzi District, Museveni laid a foundation stone for a building that will house the Rtd Gen Caleb Akandwanaho School of Research and Walter Rodney Block.
The project is being spearheaded by the leadership of NALI and President Museveni praised them for the initiative.
In attendance at the launch, on the sidelines of the ongoing retreat, of the construction of the Rtd Gen Caleb Akandwanaho School of Research and Walter Rodney Block was deputy speaker and Ruhinda North MP Thomas Tayebwa Bangirana.
According to Tayebwa, the complex will serve as a center for Pan-African integration, the promotion of African culture, and will be a forum for the relentless waging of ideological struggles.
“It shall also provide for a revolutionary museum to correct, preserve and transmit Uganda and Africa’s rich liberation struggles’ heritage,” said Tayebwa after the launch.
The deputy speaker also hailed Gen Salim Saleh (Caleb Akandwanaho), Museveni’s younger brother, after home the school will be named.
“It will honor a leading mobilizer who transitioned from mobilising for war efforts to mobilizing for the theoretical and practical implementation of the economic liberation as guided by the musevenomics philosophy,” he added.
Other first family members after whom building blocks have been named include Muhoozi and Museveni, as reported Here.
A fearless bush war general, who has served in both government and military, Gen Salim Saleh is considered by some political observers as the unofficial vice president of Uganda because of the power and influence he wields, as detailed Here.
He is also adored by his nephew and first son Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba, who claims he was told him the people he killed in wars are waiting to welcome him in heaven. Gen Muhoozi also once saved Salim Saleh from being heavily punished by Museveni. (See Details Here and There).
Recently, Muhoozi hinted on Salim Saleh being the one to succeed Museveni, as reported Here.
