NTUNGAMO – Uganda Muslim Supreme Council led by Sheikh Ramadhan Mubagye has given out 10,800 coffee seedlings to Ntungamo muslims as a way of fighting poverty in the country.
The seedlings were received on Thursday 17th October 2024 at Ntungamo main mosque by a team of muslims led by the district khadi Mr Swaleh Kashangirwe who revealed that the seedlings will be distributed to 12 sub counties in Ntungamo district.
Mr Swaleh is optimistic that if the Sub County heads take a keen interest in promoting coffee growing, it will help their religion to stand firm in terms of development in Uganda.
The Ntungamo Muslim Council Secretary for Social Services Mr Rule Elias urged the County/sub county heads to embrance the coffee planting initiative that is driven by the government of Uganda in the war against poverty.
The supplier/distributor for coffee seedlings Mr Umaru Karuru revealed that the project is non partisan and tasked all Ugandans/muslims to embrace it if they want to improve their stands of living.
End.
