Putin says he sometimes watches Western television just to understand what European audiences are being shown. And what he sees is “mass deception.”
He gives a recent example. After an attack on Starobelsk that killed civilians, including children, Russia struck targets in the Kiev region in response.
According to Putin, Western channels spent the entire day showing the Russian strikes: the destruction, the damage, the “Russian aggressor.”
But not a word about what happened in Starobelsk before that. Not a word about the dead children.
Then the narrative moves to Ukrainian drones, their military successes and how much those weapons cost. The message to European viewers follows naturally: pay more.
Putin’s point is simple, and I completely agree with him: if you show the response while erasing what preceded it, you are manufacturing the story your audience is allowed to see.
Uganda Railways Corporation spent Ugx 719,000,000 to do ground leveling of 1.89 acres of land, land it had leased to a private investor (Imathia Construction) to set up a factory making concrete sleepers which sleepers are later sold to Gov't.
Editorial: Your NIN is your identity, stop giving it away
The next time a security guard asks for your National Identification Number before allowing you into a building, ask a simple question: who gave that organization the right to collect it, and what happens to it after you leave?
Citizens routinely surrender NINs, telephone numbers, addresses and photocopies of national IDs with little idea where that information goes. Yet these aren’t harmless pieces of paper.
In an economy increasingly dependent on mobile money, electronic school payments, tax systems and insurance platforms, personal information has become valuable infrastructure, and, in the wrong hands, a potential gateway to fraud and identity theft.

The recent PLU CEC meeting at Naguru:
MWENDA: Comrades, PLU cannot be mighty on empty pockets. I propose that every CEC member contributes $10,000 as a membership fee.
OBOTH OBOTH: Dollars?
MWENDA: American dollars. Ten thousand each. And frankly, anyone who cannot afford that should reconsider whether they belong to the mighty PLU decision-making body.
EDWIN KARUGIRE: Andrew, that is rubbish. Since when did patriotism acquire a ten-thousand-dollar entrance fee? Your proposal is illegal and immoral.
KIRYOWA KIWANUKA: I reject it too. If membership of the CEC now depends on dollars, perhaps we should register PLU as a forex bureau.
MWENDA: You people want a powerful organisation funded by oxygen? The taxpayers money is not enough.
MICHAEL MAWANDA: We want an organisation whose membership does not require selling a kidney. We are stealing to survive, not to fund an organisation. I am only here for protection.
MWENDA: Thomas, say something!
THOMAS TAYEBWA: I have said nothing, Andrew, and I stand firmly by everything I have not said.
MWENDA: Are you supporting me or them? I thought we were friends?
TAYEBWA: We have no money left in parliament. Ever since Mabaati thief Anitah Among left, we are broke. Her long hands were our source of opulence and purposeless splendour. Bye, I am leaving.
BALAMU: The Deputy Speaker has voted with his feet! That is cowardice, he should vanquish
MWENDA: This spineless greedy pig! I thought he was my friend. Now he abandons me when I need him most!
TWALA FADIL: Andrew! PYA-PYA!
MWENDA: What was that?
FADIL: My palm conducting disciplinary proceedings on your bald shinny head. Do not insult fellow comrades here. We must preserve the thickness of thieves.
MICHAEL MAWANDA: Is that why Daudi Kabanda is absent?
FADIL: Daudi fears Andrew will remind everyone about his days as Secretary General, when, according to Andrew's colourful allegations, money was plentiful and women's skirts were part of the expenditure.
MICHAEL MAWANDA: And after the demotion?
FADIL: He is now enjoying revolutionary life as office assistant to our grand boss, Muhoozi.
MWENDA: Can we return to my ten thousand dollars?
KARUGIRE: No.
KIRYOWA: Absolutely not.
LILIAN ABER: Before collecting dollars, perhaps somebody should explain what PLU legally is.
FADIL: Comrade, those are dangerous questions.
KAKWITSI: A political organisation revolving around a serving army general, while politicians accused of wrongdoing discover that declaring allegiance to Muhoozi makes an excellent political umbrella?
FADIL: I said dangerous questions, not accurate ones.
MWENDA: So the ten thousand dollars proposal is defeated?
KIRYOWA: Completely.
MWENDA: By democracy?
FADIL: No, Andrew. By insufficient thieves with sufficient liquidity.

Habibi, this is Edward Awebwa. Last month, he made TWO years in jail, he still has FOUR years to go. He was also moved from Ollia to Adjumani Prison, part of his time in jail is spent digging on farms. So, last time I got in touch, he asked for gumbots to protect his feet from thorns!
In 2024, the then 24-year-old Edward, was sentenced by Magistrate Stella Maris Amabilis to SIX years in jail for the crime of “abusing the president & first lady”. What he actually did was dramatise a mock trial of a corrupt unnamed leader on TikTok.
It's become increasingly hard to keep tabs with him. The prison warders who were helpful in the past are now more or less hostile whenever I get in touch - possibly because of tweets like this. Perhaps the high-ups want his to be another out-of-sight-out-of-mind case.
Anyway, I just want to congratulate Anita Among on escaping jail, and of course out Female Bishop upon her consecration. God’s hand is surely with them, unlike Edward. ✌️🏾

I just found a 2010 scientific paper on “Kunyaza” (or kachabali in Uganda) and I’m sitting here like……… wait, what? 😂😂
There’s an entire peer reviewed article explaining how men in Central Africa (including Western Uganda) rhythmically slap the clitoris with the tip of their penis to make women squirt.
The technique has diagrams. Diagrams!!
Science really said “let me document this African innovation properly” and I am both educated and unwell 😭😂
🚨 BREAKING:
Sen. Warner:"There was no threat to the US from Iran. There was a threat to Israel."
He adds:"If we view a threat to Israel as an imminent threat to the US, then clearly we're occupied by Israeli Jews."
America is in a disastrous state now.
He ruled Uganda for just eight years, yet his legacy continues to spark debate decades later. Feared by many, Idi Amin’s rule was marked by violence, uncertainty and dramatic political change. But how did a former boxer rise to become one of Africa’s most controversial rulers?
Banning old taxis for a country which has totally ignored public transport is funny. 😂
If you want to phrase out old matatus, you plan for it.
Give car importers tax waivers for those importing new matatu vehicles,ban importation of old ones. eventually, everyone falls in line.
Roman Catholic in the first picture and African traditional religion in the second picture
But ofeke Christian labeled our own Idol worship.....
Christianity has damaged a lot

Criminal Museveni and his criminal syndicate (UPDF) lie to themselves that having guns makes them gods who can decide who lives and who dies.
What they fail to understand is that when people reach a breaking point and embrace mortality over a continued oppression, nothing can stop them. No gun of any caliber, no brainwashed goons can delay them, and that time is now.
We need to stand up against this madness, as no one is safe in our country🇺🇬 as long as this power-hungry psychopath remains in power.
Senile criminal Museveni must go now.
