GOVT COMMISSIONS SHS 191B KATONGA BRIDGE, DEMANDS 120-YEAR LIFE SPAN FROM ENGINEERS The Minister for Works and Transport, Fred Byamukama, has warned government engineers against substandard work following the commissioning and official handover of the Shs 191 billion Katonga Bridge on Saturday, October 17, 2026. The Minister revealed that technical experts had assured the government that the bridge was designed to last 120 years, warning that he would hold the engineers accountable if defects emerged before the stated lifespan elapsed. “Should I hear that there is any defect on this bridge before 120 years elapse, run away from the world because I will come for you,” he warned. The government expects the newly commissioned bridge to provide long-term service, underscoring the importance of quality construction and engineering standards in public infrastructure projects. 🇺🇬

I’ve only been doing construction for about 5 yrs now after spending 25 in the bug business. I guess every biz has its hazards, but this one is constantly occurring to me. How do you long term construction guys prevent this?!?

This is the largest CBR increase in over 10 Years. We last saw a CBR of 12%+ in 2016. Lending rates at the time reached 25% on the official tracked data. Cost of Money just gone up in one single afternoon

Thanks for this... So he actually wants the rate to go higher so that Ugandans stop importing/ buying imported goods But.. We are not a self reliant economy. This means, even things as small as matchboxes are now going to go up so the short term pains are going to be HEAVY

Now that the dollar has crossed the 4,100 mark, can an economist explain to me why the governor advised that they release the country’s forex reserve in circulation and the president declined?

ESPN’s tribute to the one and only Mike Ditka:

After the Bears fired him in 1993, Ditka made a cameo appearance on the SNL cold open with the Superfans. What a loss.

One of the smartest moves I've heard a business do happened at a 7-11. I noticed every-time I went there one could always see 1 or 2 police cars. I mentioned it to the clerk who told me that they give free drinks to any uniformed officer. Whatever they want: soda, coffee, tea, etc. For the cost of a drink ( and the cups cost more than the liquid on average ), they get free security. It was the safest gas station/convenience store in the area.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but we need to build a ton more houses or we risk Gen Z checking out from life. Just so many young people think it’s not even worth trying for the American Dream. When the mean house price is over $400k, we got a problem.

MINISTRY OF HEALTH Please avoid interviews about any disease. Thank you Uganda has no outbreak of anything.

One of my Gen Z coworkers has a routine that drives our CEO crazy. Every afternoon, around 4:50 PM, he starts wrapping things up, shuts down his computer, and at exactly 5:00 PM, he’s out the door. Not 4:59. Not 5:01. Exactly 5:00. What’s funny is that he’s just as precise in the morning. His shift starts at 9:00 AM, and he’s there before 9 every single day. The CEO finally called him into his office. He told him, “If you want to move up here, you need to stop thinking like an employee and start thinking like an owner.” My coworker asked, “What does that mean?”

Uganda is committed ( and demonstrated capability) to pandemic control and governance @MichaelDDavisJr @KiberuJimmy. It should not be punished for it. This effort of course requires solidarity between health institutions and governments. That means sharing information and resources. If however this position is going to protect the health of Ugandans, its neighbours and the global community but hurt Uganda in other ways- perhaps we should reconsider the types of cooperation we offer to our so-called allies.
