Uganda’s First Lady, Janet Kataaha Museveni has spoken out about her frustration on how her grandchildren are being raised.

Mrs Museveni voiced her concerns last week, stating that her grandchildren are being spoiled by their parents with modern technology gadgets.

“I have cautioned my own children against allowing their children access to mobile phones at such a young age,” Museveni said.

“There has to be some vigilance even when we embrace technological advancements.”

The First Lady made these remarks during a dialogue with Inkhosikati Make LaMashwama, the Queen of Eswatini at State House Entebbe.

The two ladies agreed on the urgent need for African governments to implement internet censorship policies to restrict information access to young people.

They noted that children today access all sorts of inappropriate information online, which is detrimental to their lives because parents are often unaware of what their children are viewing.

Mrs Museveni noted that some countries including Arab nations have policies about undesirable internet content. She wondered why African countries have not followed suit.

The Queen of Eswatini also expressed concerns about how easy it has become for young children to access unlimited internet content.

“Parents cannot effectively monitor what their children access,” she said.

Besides social media, young people have access to things like video games and webcams which can be used to manipulate them.

King Mswati III of Eswatini and Queen LaMashwama have been on a three-day state visit to Uganda, which was marked by a series of discussions and ceremonies aimed at bolstering the ties between the two nations.

The primary focus of the visit was on strengthening bilateral cooperation and advocating for a unified African market and political federation.
