Uganda: Government to Set Up ICT Ministry

President Yoweri Museveni has said the government will soon set up a ministry of Information, Communication and Technology (ICT). Museveni said the ministry would ensure effective, systematic coordination and development of the ICT sector. "The government of Uganda is committed to an ICT-led socio-economic development strategy. In order to realise this, all the key stakeholders, including the education institutions that produce the required human resource, must work hand in hand," he said.
