KAMPALA – The ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) party and its Chairman, President Yoweri Museveni, on Sunday, April 19, contributed Shs380 million to support the campaign against COVID-19.
The cheque was presented to Prime Minister Dr Ruhakana Rugunda and the Emmanuel Katongole- led National COVID-19 Fund team at the Office of the Prime Minister in Kampala.
