Great leaders create more leaders because impact is measured by the lives you touch & success is best when it is shared. We MUST fuel progress in grassroots sports with purpose for our country to tap into opportunities beyond Ugandan boarders. ~@jeansseninde

@joshuacheptege1 @WilliamFBlick Good job Joshua

[Joshua Cheptegei 🇺🇬🇺🇬 🥇🥇 @joshuacheptege1]

It’s been always a great dream to do something that is so close to my heart, growing up in one of the remotest villages in Uganda 🇺🇬
Where one would ask; can something good come out of this place? a child that had ambitions to achieve something.
Friends, this baby is taking shape in the scenic magical #Kapchorwa

In the next few days, I will be sharing what the dream behind this project
I thank my dear Wife Eng Carol Kamari for her great support, very instrumental in this project, project consultant, site manager and resident engineer!!

Thank you all

The Road to AFCON 2027

A photo showing the artistic impression of how Mandela National Stadium will look after its ongoing remodeling has finally been released.

The image provides a glimpse of the stadium's exterior design once the upgrade works are completed.

The scope of works in this phase includes expanding the seating capacity to approximately 45,000 spectators, roofing the entire stadium, constructing modern VVIP lounges, upgrading the media tribune, and several other improvements aimed at bringing the facility closer to international standards.

The project is being undertaken by the UPDF Engineering Brigade as part of Uganda's preparations to co-host AFCON 2027.

Uganda’s Refugee Athletes Set for Dakar 2026!

History has been made as the first-ever Refugee Olympic Team (EOR) for the Youth Olympic Games Dakar 2026 was unveiled during the 146th IOC Session by Chef de Mission Yiech Pur Biel.

We are especially proud to celebrate two athletes based in Uganda who will represent the Refugee Olympic Team on the global stage:

Florence Masembe – Athletics (Women’s 200m)
Rachid Rochene – Athletics (Men’s 200m)

Their selection is a powerful testament to resilience, determination, and the transformative power of sport. From refugee communities in Uganda to the world’s biggest youth sporting stage, Florence and Rachid carry the hopes and aspirations of millions of displaced young people around the world.

Peter Ogwang, Minister of State for Education and Sports, Sports

[Janet K. Museveni @JanetMuseveni]

It's me, Janet Museveni. It is a confirmation that the God I talk about is a living God. He is not a myth, He lives!

I must therefore thank Uganda, beginning with Mzee, who has prayed with the whole nation. I praise God for leading us to know Him. Thank you all for coming out publicly to pray for me.

Thank you for all those continuous prayers and also for the kind birthday wishes. Thank you for letting me know just how much I am loved.

[Smart Girls Uganda @smartgirlsug]

Yesterday, our workshops, classrooms, and labs turned into examination centres as our learners sat for their @UVTABOfficial assessments.

With over 80% of the candidates being young women, learners from Automotive Mechanics, Electrical Engineering, Plumbing, ICT, and Fashion & Design took an important step toward their future careers.

We’re proud of every learner who showed up, prepared, and gave it their best. Skills have the power to transform lives, and yesterday was a testament to that.
