Recently, the suspension of NAADs (National Agricultural Advisory Services) has dominated public domain following a number of similar
suspensions by President Museveni. He claims that the highly hyped project had failed to deliver anticipated results and had been turned into a pot to benefit a few elites through corruption.
This action has created mixed reactions with some excited that since NAADS had failed to make a difference in lives of most smallholder farmers, this decision was long over due. Others, particularly the beneficiaries of the program have decried the action claiming that the program has had some impact that cannot be ignored and
that it should be given chance to put right what has perhaps gone wrong.
Regardless of the side to the argument, the only point of agreement is that NAADs has had challenges and has not lived to the expectations of Ugandans.
