PRESIDENT MUSEVENI RE-AFFIRMS HIS BAN ON TIMBER EXPORT
H.E The President advises timber dealers to convert timber into furniture then export it to countries without trees.
President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has reaffirmed his ban on the exportation of unprocessed timber in Uganda.
“I said nobody should export timber which is unprocessed. So if you are a furniture maker, that is what you want. Keep the timber and make the furniture here. So, if you want to export, you export the furniture not the timber,” President Museveni said.
