The Aga Khan’s two-day official visit will feature the launch of the Aga Khan University and the commissioning of the construction of the Aga Khan Hospital. Additionally, he is scheduled to meet with the Ismaili community in Uganda.

During his welcoming remarks, President Museveni reflected on his longstanding relationship with the Ismaili community, recalling his first encounter with them in Ntungamo.

He emphasised the vital role of the private sector in Uganda’s economic development, stating, “If past governments had not interfered with the Shia community’s development, they would be very far.”

He acknowledged a historical perception of private enterprise as a remnant of colonialism and reiterated the government’s commitment to fostering a conducive environment for private sector growth.

His Highness Aga Khan expressed gratitude for the warm welcome, sharing, “My father had great love for Uganda, so it is very meaningful for me to be here to meet you.”

He extended his appreciation for the support received from various ministries, including Education and Health, during his visit.

Additionally, the two leaders engaged in discussions about the importance of fast tracking an integrated East African Community (EAC) market.

The Aga Khan encouraged rapid progression on this front, to which President Museveni assured that significant efforts are already underway to enhance economic integration in the region.

His Highness is accompanied by his sister, Princess Zahra Aga Khan, and his younger brother, Prince Aly Muhammad Aga Khan.

This visit underscores the continued collaboration between Uganda and the Aga Khan Development Network in promoting economic growth, education, and healthcare in the region.
