The National Economic Empowerment Dialogue (NEED) has supported President Museveni’s decision that Uganda doesn’t need to rely on World Bank loans for development. This is after the Bank announced its move to withdraw funding to key developmental projects in the country due to the Anti-Homosexuality Act, 2023 that was recently passed by Parliament.
