Here’s what a ruling party official says about the state of health services in Uganda. They turn a blind eye to the damage, so long as it keeps feathering their nest 🙄
Patients can only crowd a place where they expect service. That crowding is good faith in a govt facility. I would have become worried if the facility had been abandoned.

It is criminal that, even with a generation surplus, West Nile is yet to be plugged into the national grid. The legendary enterprise and graft there needs to be powered up!
Fair reminder @Kalinaki, on the impact of value-addition especially to organically produced foods to the local economies... We in West Nile are eagerly waiting on the connection to the national electricity grid to lower that cost and attract more capital into that space.

Full tummies and now snoozing 💤 It's amazing how quickly lions can go from deep sleep to being so alert to sounds of distant prey or an intruder. Good afternoon from Murchison Falls National Park. We hope these 30 wild seconds will make your #MondayMood better. #ExploreUganda

Justice Sebutinde ruling at the International Court of Justice does not represent the Government of Uganda’s position on the situation in Palestine. She has previously voted against Uganda’s case on DRC. Uganda’s support for the plight of the Palestinian people has been expressed through Uganda ‘s voting pattern at the United Nations.

Judge Julia Sebutinde, the first African woman to sit on the ICJ, voted against all the provisional measures South Africa sought against Israel. We, Ugandans, are impatiently waiting for her explanation.

#Levellingup @dannydorling said "the most likely scenario is levelling down, because when the money runs out, you’re going to have to tax people at the top more. There comes a point when you can only tax the rich, otherwise people will starve" #equality blogs.lse.ac.uk/politicsandp…
