Kasese

198 students graduated from Rwenzori Zonal Industrial Hub after spending five months undergoing vocational training at the facility which is located in Mubuku Town Council in Kasese district.

President Museveni advised the youth in Kasese District to start small-scale industries, as one of the ways of fighting poverty and creating wealth among themselves.

“Start small-scale industries. You can do them jointly by registering SACCOs and then you get money from government programs, and you get poverty out of your homes,” Barekye read his message.

The graduates who received Level I Certificates from the Directorate of Industrial Training (DIT) were trained in different vocational disciplines such as welding, tailoring, carpentry, and hairdressing.
