@Fiona_Kamikazi This classification has far-reaching consequences for tourism, conferences, investment, and labour export. If the main reason was the Ebola outbreak, now is the time to seek a review based on the current public health situation.

@nikita_helene Uganda’s Level 4 advisory wasn’t because of war—it was primarily due to the Ebola outbreak. Now that the outbreak has been contained, our diplomats should engage the U.S. for a timely review. A travel advisory should reflect current realities.

@TravelGov Uganda deserves a fair assessment. We are not an active war zone. If the primary reason for the Level 4 advisory was the Ebola outbreak, and that risk has been addressed, then the advisory should be reviewed without delay.
@CanaryMugume These advisories have a real economic impact beyond tourism. They affect labour export, investment, and international confidence. Since Uganda’s Level 4 status was primarily linked to Ebola, our diplomats should present the latest public health evidence and seek a review.
@DuncanAbigaba Uganda isn’t a war zone. Our Level 4 status was primarily due to the Ebola outbreak. Since the outbreak has been contained, it’s time for our diplomats to push for a review of the advisory.
@DuncanAbigaba From what I’ve seen, Uganda’s Level 4 status was primarily triggered by the Ebola outbreak, not because Uganda is at war. Hopefully, as the health situation improves, the advisory will be reviewed accordingly.
@Mglsd_UG@Tumukunde_ Thank you, Hon. Minister. We look forward to opening more high-value labour markets, including Israel, to create better-paying opportunities for Ugandans.
@Tumukunde_ Thank you, Hon. Minister. We appreciate the engagement and look forward to reviewing travel advisories, opening new labour markets, and fast-tracking bilateral labour agreements for more opportunities for Ugandans.
Uganda’s labour mobility sector deserves the same strategic attention as any other major export sector. Protecting overseas jobs protects families, foreign exchange and economic growth.

Labour mobility is more than employment. It is a pathway for skills transfer, technology adoption, and value addition. Uganda–Israel cooperation can benefit both nations. 🇺🇬🤝🇮🇱

@KagutaMuseveni@DonaldBusinge Your Excellency, agricultural cooperation and labour mobility can accelerate skills transfer, productivity, and value addition. Ugandan workers who gain experience abroad return home with knowledge that supports Uganda’s transformation agenda. 🇺🇬🤝🇮🇱
Today, I hosted Mr. Gilbert Weill, one of the survivors of the 1976 Entebbe hijacking, together with his family and friends at State House, Entebbe, as they returned to Uganda nearly 50 years after that tragic incident.
I told them that although the hijacking was a tragedy, the rescue operation became a turning point and marked the beginning of the collapse of the Idi Amin regime. I also shared Uganda’s journey from those difficult days to the peace, stability and progress we enjoy today, and emphasized the need to strengthen economic cooperation between Uganda, Israel and Europe, especially in value addition and agro-industrialisation.
The perfect time is a myth.
You don’t wait for all the lights to turn green — you start moving and adjust on the road.
Start now. Momentum comes after action.
