FIRST Lady Janet Museveni has called for the facilitation of the East African Federation.

The Ruhaama MP said she looked forward to the elimination of common border points to enable free movement of residents of Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania.

She is leading about 50 farmers from Ruhaama county in Ntungamo district on an agricultural tour of East Africa. The group is travelling by bus.

Before departure to Arusha, Tanzania, a smiling Janet sat next to Ntungamo Woman MP Rwakimari Kyaligonza as they set off for the journey by road from Norfolk Hotel in Nairobi through Namanga border.

Mrs. Museveni explained why she chose to travel by bus instead of a luxury car, saying she did not want to abandon her constituents.
