Have read so many comments here below, Iam on a positive lane coming to farming this guy is a foreigner like any Ugandan abroad he is doing the best of his interest to uplift his dream!
He is creating jobs to so many in that area at the same time the youth to learn from him you can make a leaving doing farming!
So please let’s go work👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
The main money is not MATOOKE. It's the macadamia and vanilla he is working on. This MATOOKE is just seasonal crop to get cash while he waits for the real gold. It's high value cash crops Vanilla and Macadamia. Kudos for him..
But we Ugandan should wake up and utilize our resources
Very true
Okitegeera. Tujja kufa nnyo obwavu
Ugandans accept the challenge. You went for kyekyo and left your land
Yes
250 arces wo that good work keep it up boy
How did he get the land n money, some of us just need that startup
Ur prez said pdm can do all this
Ugandans have jst resorted to betting 😂😂😂😂 mzungu has challenged you all
I support him we already failed we are looking for quick money Africans we want to get rich quickly and don’t want to work
We have 49% of East Africa's arable land. It's embarrassing that we still have Ugandans who starve.
The laziness is king
let 60% of your company owned by your workers you will see miracles.
This katemba also, when its Ugandan farmers no government support naye kati laba ono mbu naye investor,,,olemwa
What support has he received from government you talk wit no facts?
Watching front Brighton.
Have some fish and chips for me lol
Which village is dat .m in Hoima I need to visit his farm😢
Buseruka chungajembe
But who bewitched the country Uganda
He is showing you what can done successfully, learn from him.
Why do you want to chase him away.
Transfer of knowledge.
Please come get serious workers from Kenya.
Ssenga tufuuna bikumi neebikkumi nga bano, mubuli department , uganda eyiinza ofuuka nga ens zebweru ebintu nebiba binjii,.. nebeeyi yebintu neba waansi
We want to sit in round chair 💺 and air conditioned offices
It will be good as long as he is not here to defraud like some other people who get government cash and they disappear. Up to date we don’t have a hospital at Lubowa. That woman took billions of Ugandan money and like “ababi tebaswala” she had come back for a coffee deal.
Kyokka muzungu
Imagine asekadama from Uk on Kye yo In ugandA.
Ono masikini muzungu
As usual the idiots will frustrate him because he's trying to cut out their bablooka Hussle. I would advise him to do complex projects beyond the intellectual capacity of the locals
Kati fe banansi tunakolaki ?
Not all banasi are doing commercial agriculture
Kati oba mulemedwa okulima babakolereki
Gwe okozewoki? Tulage byokola tukuguleko.
@@kasulebriankalule2129ok woba oyagala ontegezako nina mangi
Am also a farmer we need to work together
Meanwhile some Ugandans are selling off family land to go for kyeyo.
Stop criminals my country in Uganda 🇺🇬 Respect to Black people.
Wheres the criminal?
He doesn't look like a reaper
U have told ba no'guu. They are coming blood. The will frustrate u and take an already laid farm for nothing
Uganda olemwa😂
While Ugandans complain and wait for freebies from government. Ugandans should wake up and learn to work with their hands.
HOW THIS AN INVESTOR?
Check out the requirements of a foreign investor on Uganda investment authority portal
Ugandans are chased from the land demolishing thier houses and farms😢😢
Ugandans let us open our eyes. Investors for what? Chess them away. And uterlise ur Land. It's ashame.
Chase
Bwana, your thinking is purely evil! You mean there no Ugandans in other countries?
Ugandans have a belief that banana can't grow in asemi arid land ,shame upon us
This is not an investor
This so called investor should not be allowed to do a business which is already done by local people.. His main market is in uganda. He would have been allowed only if his matooke were for exports.
What is ur problem? Some of our black people hv bad hearts... yet the same want to go out to find greener pastures in other countries.
@dennybwabyem5833 His matooke farming is adding nothing to uganda instead he is competing with local Ugandans for the same local market. On a product which is highly produced by the indigenous people. If his matooke was for export only it would have brought too many benefits; 1.govt gets taxes.2.His farm gives employment to the people. 3, He would have also provided market to other matooke outgrowers in uganda.
@@kibs917now ask yourself is it better for the community if the land was bare?
Maybe the man has done other things for the community also not discussed.
How much money do you think he pays for a workforce each month to maintain that land how many school fees and medical bills etc have been paid as a result. Is that not benefiting Uganda or when he realises a profit if he expands his operation or pays taxes is that not a benefit to the country?
Did you not hear that it is his first harvest and that he is looking to export in the future but ofcourse it takes money maybe he is looking to get some return on his current investment beforehand.
Do you really think in a non matooke growing area he is a problem and even if it was elsewhere with people being born everyday and no more land being created do you think he can meet the demand for the entire country of Uganda.
Don't be so quick to judge others ssebo
Obwoongo obunafu bukooya bigele.
Ogya kuloga nyo! He's already paying lots of indirect taxes.
He's employing many young Ugandans workers who, unfortunately, don't think long term like you!
Your criteria of providing market to outgrowers as what qualifies one as an investor in Uganda is so lackadaisical in a global village. You too can go to UK and invest as long as you have the capital!
Simply look on or start your own farm and make decisions for it, not for the mzungu.
