Abuja (Precise Post) – Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni has met with Kenyan delegation led by Cabinet Secretary for Industrialization, Trade, and Enterprise Development, Betty Maina over trade relations in light of recent developments like the ban on some Ugandan exports.
Museveni who disclosed this via his twitter handle noted that competition has been generated by the fact that we are trading in a common market, however, the ultimate logic of EAC integration is that one who is more efficient should be allowed to sell. We should eliminate irregularities with strategic analysis, not endless fights, he added.
The tweet reads:

I am happy to note that the meetings reached a clear conclusion regarding the next course of action for both countries.
The Kenyan delegation also delivered a special message to me from President Uhuru Kenyatta.
