Amama Mbabazi (centre) at his office on 28th March 2014 led by their president Dr. Paul Bamutaze (in red tie) and the Chairperson of Inspirational Development Uganda (IDA-Uganda Chapter) Ms. Winifred Nakandi (next to Prime Minister). It was at this event that the Prime Minister gladly accepted to be the Patron of the organization. Other members present were representatives from Kenya, Tanzania, Nigeria, Eritrea, Somalia, Rwanda, Congo, South Sudan, Egypt among others.
The Prime Minister urged these youth to advocate for security in the country because it is paramount for any country's development and to exercise good leadership right from their youth stage. "Leadership has been our greatest weakness as a continent, when you look at the history of Africa and all the issues that brought about the different revolutions and rebellions in Africa, it all revolves around leadership. Hence I welcome this idea of Inspirational Development Africa which brings youth on board to prepare them for leadership", the Prime Minister noted.
