That in *, I became aware of a Government of Uganda program called Operation Wealth Creation (OWC), which aims to uplift household incomes. The program includes, among other initiatives, the distribution of coffee seedlings to farmers in selected districts. This program was implemented by the Uganda Coffee Development Authority (UCDA) in collaboration with various local government officers. *. That I enrolled in the Coffee Seedling project under OWC and signed a contract to supply *,* coffee seedlings to designated farmers in various selected districts. The contract details are documented in the purchase order, a copy of which is attached and marked as “Annexure B.” *. That Coffee Nursery Operators, including myself, were assigned to supply coffee seedlings as per the allocation list provided by UCDA. A copy of this allocation list is attached and marked as “Annexure A.” *.
