Uganda is an anchor state in championing economic and political integration of not just East Africa but Africa as a continent. Therefore, the NRM remains committed to the urgent need for the economic and political integration of Africa. The NRM recognises the fact that Uganda’s current market estimated at 45 million people is insufficient to guarantee the country and its people’s prosperity.
As industries expand to attain mass production, the Uganda will need to take advantage of Africa’s market of 1.3 billion people. This is why the Uganda joined other African governments to sign the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) Agreement, which removes obstacles to movement of goods and people among African countries.

The NRM will also continue to advocate for political integration for strategic security. The NRM is aware that economic prosperity alone is not enough. Political integration is the only safeguard against aggression from bigger powers. Therefore, the NRM will continue to pursue the policy of integration for prosperity and strategic security. Our commitment to regional issues remains unchanged.
Finally, Uganda is on the right trajectory. Through our collective effort, the democracy rating is growing and maturing while people’s freedoms are entrenched and safe. The social, economic and political gains are cemented and irreversible. We have a lot to be proud of and a lot to be grateful for. At this rate, Uganda is unstoppable in securing your future.
