President Yoweri Museveni has finally ended his silence and taken a position on the debate regarding how Uganda can gradually achieve universal access to internet by sustainably lowering the cost of internet for both public and private users.

The president’s letter (addressed to Prime Minister Ruhakana Rugunda) is one page and self explanatory as seen below:
