@josedablogga If talk was currency, you'd be a billionaire. Let's see some actual work for a change

🚨BREAKING:

North Korea's Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un suffered a brain hemorrhage and fell into a coma, and is now at "Peking Union Medical College Hospital" in China. 🇰🇵

@UEDCLTD Actions speak louder than PR statements. We need to see real, on-the-ground work and transparency instead of cheap media talk and empty promises. Fix the root issues!

🚨🚨DEAN OF THIEVES 🚨🚨

We the traders, boda riders, youth and ordinary Ugandans have suffered enough. We are not refusing to pay tax. We are refusing to be over taxed and scammed by a system designed to make us poor.

This is how URA over taxes us;

1. Six Taxes on One Item. This is a Scam.
You import one phone or one bale of clothes. URA charges you;
- Import Duty 25%
- Excise Duty
- VAT 18%
- Withholding Tax 6%
- Infrastructure Levy 1.5%
- Environmental Levy 30%

One item, six taxes stacked on top of each other. By the time you reach Kikuubo, the price has tripled. Who can afford that? This is not taxation, this is extortion.

2. PAYE 40% - Highest in East Africa.
In Rwanda PAYE is 30%, Tanzania 30%, Kenya 30%. In Uganda it's 40%. A worker who earns 1M takes home only 600k. Government takes 400k before you even buy food which also has 18% VAT. Where is our take home? 🏠

3. Fuel Excise Raised Every Year.
Fuel excise from 1,350/= to 1,550/= to now 1,750/=per litre. Every time fuel goes up, everything goes up taxi fare, food, cement, soap. Yet URA says they are widening tax base.

4. Double Taxation on Small Businesses.
A small shop owner in Kampala pays: Trading license to KCCA, Income tax to URA, VAT 18% plus daily EFRIS fines of 2M, 6M for small mistakes. Many shops closed in 2024-2025 because of EFRIS enforcement without education.

5. EFRIS and Instant Fines are Digital Scam.
URA introduced EFRIS but did not train traders. Now a mistake of not issuing a receipt is 2M fine, then 6M. How can a woman selling tomatoes afford 6M? This is not tax collection rather this is punishment of the poor.

6. 11% Tax to GDP yet Harassing the Same 1 Million People.
URA collects only 11% of GDP, the lowest in EAC because they fear to tax the rich and the corrupt who steal billions. So they squeeze the same 1 million compliant Ugandans, boda riders, market women and small shops over and over.

What we ask not request because we are tax payers;

1. Reduce PAYE from 40% to 30% like our neighbors.
2. Reduce VAT from 18% to 10% like Kenya.
3. Stop stacking 6 taxes on one imported item and harmonize to one single tax.
4. Stop EFRIS fines until every trader is trained free of charge.
5. Publish online how every shilling is used.

URA @URAuganda , you are not collecting tax. You are killing businesses. You are making Uganda the most expensive country to live in East Africa.

If you tax us to death, who will pay tax tomorrow?

We Pay Tax, We Deserve Respect, Not Scam.

Meanwhile, I know that the law says S.6 or its equivalent but I am sure the law makers meant a passed S.6.. otherwise everyone who wants to stand for MP would continue up to S.6 and show a result slip with only Fs. But also @UNEB_UG needs to tell us how @SodoKaguta proceeded to the A’level with these results from S.4 and even offered a combination from the subjects that he had F9s in!!

@UEDCLTD Here is a professional and firm response you can use to reply to the outage alert:

"While outages can happen, the reliability across these areas has become increasingly frustrating for residents and businesses relying on consistent power.

[Kamukama Fredie #Gen MK ,President Museveni 4 life @kamukamafredie]

Dear Ugandans, we all celebrated when the government took over electricity distribution from Umeme,hoping for better services.But today,we are facing expensive electricity, prolonged power outages and poor customer care.

I recently heard that some managers at @UEDCLTD are former Umeme employees.If this is true,Ugandans deserve answers.Why are we still suffering despite the change we advocated for? Four days without a response, yet customers are left with nothing but reference numbers! 😏😏

My humble appeal to President Yoweri Museveni @KagutaMuseveni is to urgently look into the affairs of UEDCL. We cannot pay high electricity bills and still spend days in darkness. If the current team cannot deliver,we shall also advocate for new,patriotic and accountable workers who put Ugandans first.

We fought for change from Umeme because we wanted better services,not a change of name with the same frustrations.Government must ensure that the people entrusted with this responsibility do not undermine its efforts and public confidence.

The Bible says in Proverbs 29:2 (KJV): “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.”

Ugandans deserve reliable electricity, affordable services and responsive customer care.

[Tesi @kaitesishi]

Does @StateHouseUg have a Press Secretary? I have rarely, if ever, seen the office brief the media on important matters, such as President Museveni’s foreign trips or his comments on key national issues.

If we do have a Press Secretary, then perhaps it’s time to revisit the role’s responsibilities. Keeping the public informed and ensuring timely communication from the Presidency should be a key part of the job.

We need a weekly briefing on the President’s activities, engagements and plans.

Bulgaria’s organized crime police went full MTV Cribs, giving us a tour of a mansion belonging to a criminal accused of stealing millions from the state. Forget the crime for a second, LOOK AT THAT INTERIOR DESIGN. 😭❤️🇧🇬

Who is sovereign now? The MP who voted for the Bill in an air-conditioned room? Or the mother in Owino who cannot afford rice because transport costs have doubled?
