In a press statement issued by the Presidential Press Unit,
the meeting was attended by the Vice President Edward Kiwanuka Ssekandi, the
Speaker of Parliament Rebecca Kadaga, Prime Minister, Ruhakana Rugunda and the
Chief Justice Bart Magunda Katureebe.
Others were the Vice Chairman of the National Resistance Movement,

“We met as leaders but also as elders to discuss some matters of
national importance,” President Museveni is quoted as saying shortly after the

Some of the issues discussed included the Coronavirus pandemic,
locusts, floods, and the floating islands that have disrupted some essential
services.
However, the statement doesn’t go into detail of how the members were
