@UNOC_UG@Comrade_Otoa@BanageSarah@laura_sseezi@YSsempogo@mukondo53@AngieNdagano@AngellaK5 Section 125 of the Petroleum(Exploration, Dev't & Production)Act, 2013, mandates national content provisions.This statutory provision is operationalized through the Petroleum (Exploration, Development &Production)(National Content)2016, ring-fencing & citizen participation rules.
I am delighted to be at Olive School, Namugongo, for the school's AI and Innovation Expo, where I am interacting with some of Uganda's brightest young innovators.
I am inspired by the creativity and capability of these learners, who, under the guidance of their teachers and mentors, are using artificial intelligence, science, engineering, and the creative arts to develop practical solutions to challenges facing our communities. From plastic waste recycling, hydraulic bridge systems, and solar-powered automotive technologies to painting, digital design, and other creative arts, these young people are demonstrating that innovation has no age.
This is exactly the mindset we must nurture if we are to build a science-led, technology-driven, and innovation-powered Uganda. Our responsibility is to continue supporting and believing in these young innovators so that today's ideas become tomorrow's industries and national solutions.
@EngJonard@KagutaMuseveni@STIsecretariat@JonardPost@OlivesSchool Look at what these kids achieved with so little! ๐Meanwhile, @NsteiSep EDiC engineering leads are proud of basic skeletons, etc โthings a child could make. The government spent billions on high-tech facilities & CNC machines; they should be reverse-engineering actual cars, etc
@UNCST_Uganda@jkisaale1@NsteiSep Honestly, dropping big money on massive center full of CNC machines just to make simple things like skeletons, nuts or bolts makes zero financial sense. Consider taking on full reverse-engineering for complex stuff like cars, bikes, & motors, what problem are they even solving๐
@nbstv Case in point at @NsteiSep: China-trained engineers sidelined and replaced by their own, remaining ones unpaid for 10 months, and staged visits.#FixingUganda#NBSLiveAt9
@nbstv Not delivering value at all. Most STI-funded projects are failing taxpayers because they are run on nepotism, self-interest, and personal agendas rather than merit. Take EDiC @NsteiSep as a prime exampleโ3 years of zero value and internal wrangling. #FixingUganda#NBSLiveAt9
Parliament's Committee on Physical Infrastructure has directed Uganda Railways Corporation (URC) managing director Benon Kajuna to record a statement with the Criminal Investigations Directorate (CID) over the disappearance of 395 railway wagons as lawmakers intensified scrutiny of the corporation's management of public assets.

Together, we addressed the media about the forthcoming launch of the National Cleaning Days Initiative, a programme that was approved by the Cabinet meeting held in August 2025 and chaired by H.E. President @KagutaMuseveni .
The initiative will be launched by Her Excellency @jessica_alupo on behalf of the President in Kiti Zone, Kisenyi Parish, Kampala this Saturday.
The Vice President will also participate in the inaugural cleaning activities together with other Government leaders, religious and cultural leaders, and members of the general public.
The initiative establishes the last Saturday of every month as the National Cleaning Day (from 7:00 am to 9:00 am).
During this time, all Ugandans are expected to participate in organised community cleaning activities within their areas, including homes, markets, schools, health facilities, places of worship, roads, drainage channels, and other public spaces.
I call upon all Ugandans to embrace this initiative because of its great benefits such as reducing the disease burden. @MinofHealthUG@BaryomunsiChris@DianaAtwine@JaneRuth_Aceng@Parliament_Ug
The Prime Minister, Rt. Hon. @R_Nabbanja has unveiled the National Cleaning Days Initiative under the slogan โA Clean Uganda is Everyoneโs Responsibilityโ
It will take place every last Saturday of the month from 7:00-10:00am where all public activities will be paused except emergency vehicles. This is a mandatory exercise for everyone to ensure cleanliness and good hygiene in order to prevent diseases.
