[Uganda Police Force @PoliceUg]

. @KawalaRachael "Two additional suspects have been arrested in connection with the death of Sydney Gongodyo, a professional rugby player, following an incident that occurred on 5 June 2026.

The suspects have been identified as Mugwiisa Obed and Owino Joseph, a security guard. Mugwiisa Obed was captured in video footage wearing a yellow T-shirt and carrying a large log during the incident. During interrogation, he led investigators to a local laundry (dobbi) where he had taken the yellow T-shirt he was seen wearing on the day of the attack. The garment was subsequently recovered as part of the ongoing investigations.

Their arrest brings the total number of suspects currently in custody to ten (10) as investigations into the alleged mob killing continue.

Efforts are ongoing to identify, trace, and apprehend other individuals believed to have participated in the incident.

We remain committed to ensuring that all those responsible for this criminal act are held accountable and brought to justice in accordance with the law.

Further updates will be provided as investigations progress.

*الاحتراقُ المهنيّ في البيئاتِ السامّة*

د. أيمن بدر كريّم

أدرَجتْ منظمةُ الصحّةِ العالميةِ مفهومَ "الاحتراقِ الوظيفيِّ" في النُّسخةِ الحديثةِ من التّصنيفِ الدوليِّ للأمراضِ (ICD-11) باعتبارِه ظاهرةً مِهنيّةً ناتجةً عن ضُغوطاتٍ مُزمِنةٍ في بيئةِ العمل، وتتجلّى في مزيجٍ من الأعراضِ النّفسيةِ والجسديةِ تشملُ الأرقَ المزمنَ، والشُّعورَ بنُضوبِ الطاقةِ، وشَكاوى الإعياءِ والصُّداعِ ومشكلاتِ الجهازِ الهضميِّ، وارتفاعَ معدّلِ الإصابةِ بنزلاتِ البردِ والإنفلونزا، مع تراجعِ القدرةِ على إنجازِ المَهامِّ، فضلًا عن ضعفِ التركيزِ والإحباطِ وتقلّباتِ المِزاجِ ونوباتِ الغضبِ، وسيطرةِ النّظرةِ التشاؤميةِ، والانسحابِ الاجتماعيِّ المَرضيّ.

كما يرتبطُ العملُ في البيئاتِ السّامّةِ بارتفاعِ معدّلاتِ التغيّبِ والتأخّرِ عن العملِ وتراجُعِ الإنتاجيةِ، وزيادةِ احتمالِ الاستقالةِ وضعفِ الاندماجِ الوظيفيِّ، وجميعُها من أسبابِ تحمّلِ المؤسّساتِ أعباءً ماليةً كبيرةً نتيجةَ فقدانِ ساعاتِ العملِ الفعليةِ وتدهورِ جودةِ الأداء. وبِذلك يُعَدُّ الاحتراقُ الوظيفيُّ نِتاجًا تراكميًا لبنيةٍ تنظيميةٍ سيّئةٍ وضغوطاتٍ مِهنيّةٍ مُزمِنةٍ، تتجاوزُ قدرةَ الموظّفِ على التعاملِ الصحيِّ معها.

وتتميّزُ بيئاتُ العملِ السامّةُ بتغلّبِ المَصالحِ الفرديةِ والطُّموحاتِ الشخصيةِ على الأهدافِ المؤسّسيةِ، كما تُسهِمُ مُمارساتُ التسلّطِ الوظيفيِّ، والتحزّباتُ الإداريّةُ، والمحسوبيةُ، والتمييزُ القائمُ على الوَلاءاتِ الشخصيةِ، في تعزيزِ مشاعرِ الظُّلمِ واهتزازِ الثّقةِ بأخلاقياتِ العملِ، وهو ما يرتبطُ بارتفاعِ مستوياتِ الإنهاكِ الانفعاليِّ والاحتراقِ النّفسيِّ.

تذكُرُ تقاريرُ أنّ ما يقرُبُ من (25%) من إساءةِ التعاملِ و"قلّةِ الأدبِ" يصدُرُ من "المديرِ" نفسِه ويتسبّبُ في استِقالةِ حوَالي (12%) من الموظَّفين، وتؤكّدُ دراساتٌ تجريبيةٌ وجودَ علاقةٍ سلبيةٍ ذاتِ دلالةٍ إحصائيةٍ بين فظاظةِ المُشرفِ المباشرِ ومُستوى الأداءِ الوظيفيِّ، والارتباطِ بِخسائرَ اقتصاديةٍ مباشرةٍ للمؤسّساتِ. لذلك أَقترحُ إخضاعَ المسؤولينَ والمديرينَ الإداريينَ بصورةٍ دوريّةٍ إلى تقييماتٍ وفحوصاتٍ نفسيّةٍ وشخصيّةٍ، لرصدِ وعلاجِ اضطراباتِهم النفسيةِ ومنعِ ضررِهم السُّلوكيِّ على الموظّفينَ والمُراجعين.

في المقابلِ، يُفترَضُ في القيادةِ أن تَضطّلِعَ بدورٍ جوهريٍّ في تمكينِ العامِلينَ وتقديرِ إنجازاتِهم، وضمانِ استحقاقاتِهم، وإشراكِهم في صُنعِ قراراتٍ ذاتِ صِلةٍ مباشرةٍ بمهامِّهم وتحدّياتِهم المِهنيّةِ، فالمجتمعَ الوظيفيّ الأمثَل، يمنحُ كلَّ فردٍ فيهِ إمكانيّةَ المُساهمَةِ الإيجابيّةِ بجميعِ جوارِحهِ.

لكنَّ هذا يتطلّبُ أن يتوقَّفَ مُمثِّلُو الإدارةِ التنفيذيّةِ والتشغيليّةِ عن الوُقوفِ حجَرَ عثْرةٍ أمامَ الموظّفِ وضدَّهُ، كما يَستلزِمُ مراجعةً دوريّةً للأنظمةِ والإجراءاتِ التّنظيميةِ لضمانِ ترسيخِ مبادئِ العَدالةِ والنّزاهةِ والشّفافيةِ، بما يُعالِجُ العواملَ المُولّدةَ للاحتراقِ الوظيفيِّ ويُعزِّزُ الصحّةَ النفسيّةَ المهنيّةَ.

In June 2013, I wanted to contest for the @OfficialFUFA Presidency. The law was quickly amended to keep me out. I am back to say I am still available for that task. I can bring about the footballing glory all we Ugandans dream of. Time to save our football from thieves. Let’s take back our game

WATCH: Nation Media Group (NMG) journalists have once again been ushered into the August House by Aringa South County MP Alioni Yorke Odria.

NMG had been barred from accessing Parliament since October last year, with no clear explanation given for the restriction.

[Bank of Uganda @BOU_Official]

"Chairman, a country without reserves is not sovereign. The potential of this Bill to destabilize Uganda’s balance of payments is our primary concern as a central bank. For example, last financial year the overall balance of payment surplus was USD 1.5 billion. That’s how we were able to increase our reserve coverage by USD 1.5 billion. Today as we speak our reserves are close to USD 6 billion. Why? Because these inflows have been coming in. The moment you tamper with these inflows here, we risk running down our reserves, and that is economic disaster for a country.” Governor Atingi-Ego on the Protection of Sovereignty Bill 2026 in an appearance before Parliament today.

#Ugandans are lucky, baasi. The Deputy Governor of the Central Bank has taken time to teach you the very basics. What excuse do you have? And as he says at the start of this: "Let us have an honest conversation." #EconomicsUG @AugustusNuwagab

🚨LONG POST ALERT🚨

You might not remember this, but it will always stay fresh in my mind. I don’t even know if @mnamanya remembers, but @RaulKanyike keeps reminding me about that day.

September 6th, 2012, @JosephOwino and @KawowoSports had secured a ticket (business class) for me to travel to Zambia to cover Uganda taking on the reigning African champions in a 2013 AFCON qualifier.

I showed up at @DailyMonitor offices in Namuwongo with just my passport and air ticket, after walking all the way from the ET offices around Kampala Casino because I didn’t have a single penny on me.

I placed the passport and ticket on Namanya’s keyboard and told him, “I’m traveling tonight, but I don’t even have money to get to the airport.”

Namanya paused, thought for about two minutes, picked up my documents and went to DK’s office.

The next thing I saw was a call from Namanya. I joined them, and there was a voucher already filled out with my name, the amount clearly broken down, signed by DK and Namanya, with only my signature missing.

This was around 6pm. I went to the accountant, got my cash, and later that night, I traveled.

I landed in Lusaka the next day, exchanged money into Kwacha, and it was more than enough. In fact, I decided to fly from Lusaka to Ndola instead of taking a four-hour road trip, opting for a 45 minute flight instead.

Uganda lost 1-0 on the day but won the return leg 1-0 in Kampala, but it was the African champions who progressed 9-8 on penalties. Andy Mwesigwa and Patrick Ochan missed their spot kicks.

Thank you @Kalinaki for making my first work trip memorable.
