“No point buying a closing down Church - nobody wants to go to them anyway….” 🤡 Yes, many churches are closing down, but often not because people don't want to go. It's because they can't afford to keep them open. I’ve had hundreds of messages from Churches in this position. So, what I will do is rent my Church out for free to a Church. I’ll also allow homeless outreach projects to operate there so they can have a greater impact on the community. Plus, statistics show a revival is beginning among the younger generation here in the UK. I just believe there's so much good that churches do. Seeing them get closed down and replaced with developments doesn't feel right - a beautiful church building deserves better.

The tweet "Corona virus....its coming" was posted on June 3, 2013. Quite prescient, wasn't it?

In 2021, Bobi Wine won the Busoga region with 437,059 votes against President Museveni’s 404,862. We managed to win in only three out of the eleven districts that make up Busoga. I hope Bobi Wine can help them fix these roads, but unfortunately, he can’t. Plz Vote for President Museveni & all these bad roads will become history.💪

Except the man saying this led Kampala as its MP for ten years in which every living piece of infrastructure broke down, cost of living went up, rents quadrupled and all he cared about was a social media law to stop the public from abusing politicians.

We are set, tomorrow we shall accompany the Shield of Kampala, Erias Lukwago for his nomination as the Lord Mayor of our mighty Capital City. Keep calm, Omuloodi waali🌹

A kg of goats meat is 22k?? Where does this government think we get money?? 😒

This was really bad timing! The dust hasn’t settled in that region and now you take down another pillar, it’s going to be hard to convince Busoga that enaremu means well.

But Ugandan Facebook usage has probably increased since they banned Facebook in 2021 😩

Apart from NUP fielding a candidate for the mayoral race, is there anything I have missed? Another senior PFF member said NUP isn’t cooperative because they have put a candidate against Ssemujju. I asked them why another person having ambition and desire to represent their people is taken as personal attack? If positions should be ring fenced for particular people why are we having a problem with Museveni and his people? If anything, if the entire opposition takes this cooperation thing seriously it should be the people that have been in these positions for over a decade to cede space for the younger/newer ones. If that’s not possible, all should just compete fairly without taking it personal.

Whose politician’s portrait can you hang in your sitting room and ask your children to emulate him or her?

The Government has announced a major shift in managing Public Service Vehicles (PSVs), including taxis and buses, by eliminating individual operators in favour of organised associations or SACCOS. The move is aimed at streamlining public transport, particularly in Kampala and upcountry towns.

Today, @mtnug made a contribution of 2% of their gross annual revenue to @UCC_Official in line with the telco's licensing obligations. This year, the figure has risen to UGX 50.55bn, up from UGX 42.5bn last year. All licensed operators, including @mtnug, are required to contribute 2 percent of their gross annual revenue to @UCC_Official. Half of that money or 1% goes to the Consolidated Fund while the rest is retained by UCC to support the work of the Uganda Communications Universal Service and Access Fund #UCUSAF. This Fund enables #Government to extend essential communication services to unserved and underserved areas of #Uganda. @UCC_ED @ConsumerUCC #Bridgingthegap #leavingnoonebehind #digitalinclusion

Yesterday in Nakasero, I had a productive meeting with Starlink representatives, Ben MacWilliams and Brandi Oliver, brought to me by Ambassador Adonia and Ambassador Popp. I appreciate their commitment to providing low-cost internet in hard-to-reach areas and establishing a presence in Uganda. They are welcome.
