President Museveni on Monday joined other Heads of State and Government at Kasarani Stadium in Nairobi, Kenya to witness President William Ruto’s Inauguration.
“I once again congratulate President William Ruto and the brotherly people of Kenya,” he said.
While addressing thousands of Kenyans at Kasarani stadium, Museveni said he has met Ruto on several occasions and knows him as a practical person.
Museveni expressed optimism in the Ruto administration saying he is confident that he (Ruto) will deliver.
“I have not read the manifesto of Kenya Kwanza nor the Azimio one. But I know H.E. Ruto, I have met him a number of times in Uganda and I know he likes ideas and frank talking.”
Citing his experience of 60 years, Museveni advised Africans that prosperity comes from wealth creation.
“And wealth is not the same as natural resources, you may have natural resources and not get wealth out of them.”
