EXCLUSIVE: How planting Amongโs Juju at Oboth parliament office landed Obore in prison
A few days ago, PLUโs Speaker of Parliament Jacob Oboth cried out to the public for prayers after landing on strange juju planted inside his office. A CCTV review by security showed that on the night of June 30th at 21:00hrs, a masked Chris Obore sneaked to the speakerโs office at Level 5 parliament building.
He was allegedly filmed making some incantations and dancing strangely at Oboth Obothโs office door and thereafter planted witch craft objects, a move that angered OO prompting him to report to his superiors leading to the revival of Oboreโs corruption scandals and his eventual arrest.

A whistleblower. A criminal prosecution. A landmark court victory.
The High Court has ordered MTN Uganda to pay former executive Richard Mwami over UGX 2.3 billion after finding the telecom company maliciously instigated his prosecution over the infamous UGX 16 billion mobile money fraud case.
How did the man who first reported the suspicious transactions end up in the dock, and ultimately win one of Uganda's most significant malicious prosecution judgments?

What do the WOMEN get when they DIE in Islam?
Islam promises men 72 virgins in paradise (Hadith). Women? A purified husband, beauty, & palaces. No 72 studs for them. So what happens when the 72 virgins are no longer virgins? ๐คฆโโ๏ธ just a false religion made up of lies

LORD MAYOR KAMPALA
Eng Balimwezo Ronald Nsubuga
Next week, I meet up with the current mayor of Kampala and our discussions will focus on 4 major reasons why Cities exist and those are.
Will be my first time to meet him!
1- Search for economic opportunities and therefore, cities must first focus on how the city economy thrives.
The Bible says pray for the city in which you live, when it prospers, you also prosper and yes, if the city doesnโt prosper, you donโt prosper.
2- search for good education, cities generally speaking host the best educational institutions because when its economy improves, the need for better education grows.
3- Good health, because of prosperity of the city obviously the city hosts the best health facilities. Poor environment donโt host good health facilities.
Good health depends on 3 pillars, good housing, good education and good nutrition and all depend on a good economy. Reason no poor is amongst the top 20 health nations.
4- Security, cities with great wealth intend to have better secure environments generally speaking. Wealth nations tend to invest better for their security than the poor ones.
I will invite the Lord Mayor to kasese and see how RWENZORI MARATHON is slowly transforming Kasese and see first hand what numbers of spenders mean for an economy.
The owner of TORONTO MARATHON has for example invited me for Toronto marathon and is going to organize a diner where the mayor of Toronto will be and would be happy to go with our mayor and sees how mayors position cities.
We shall discuss a marketing plan for Kampala city, would nice to hear Kenyans, Tanzanians, South Africans, Nigerians etc saying, we shall visit Kampala and spend our money there.
Places like Namungogo shouldnโt be places where activities happen only in the month of June. It should be attracting spenders throughout the year and we shall discuss how that works.
THIS THINKING SHOULD APPLY TO EVERY MAYOR AROUND THE COUNTRY AND YOU VOTERS MUST ENGAGE THEM.
Let us be honest: the issue is not that medical interns are too many.
It is not that Uganda has no money.
It is that medical interns are not being treated as a priority.
Consider the choices being made:
โข Parliament keeps growing.
Parliamentโs budget reportedly doubled to about ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ญ. ๐ฎ ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐น๐น๐ถ๐ผ๐ป. The money going to 529 MPs rose from about ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฐ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฏ in 2020/21 to ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ณ๐ฐ๐ฐ.๐ฐ๐ฏ in 2026/27, an increase of about ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ฐ.๐ฐ๐ฏ.
What direct return does this give the common Ugandan in a crowded hospital?
โข Two offices alone tell the story.
The Speaker and Deputy Speaker offices had about ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ณ.๐ญ๐ฏ combined in 2020/21. In 2026/27, they stand at about ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฑ๐ฌ.๐ฎ๐ฏ , an increase of about ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฐ๐ฏ.๐ญ๐ฏ for only two offices.
That increase alone can pay ๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฌ interns ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ญ๐บ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐บ๐ผ๐ป๐๐ต ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฎ ๐ณ๐๐น๐น ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ, with money left.
โข Questionable spending continues.
In 2025/26, selected Speakerโs office lines reportedly included ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฎ.๐ฐ๐ฏ for foreign travel, ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฒ๐บ for fuel, ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฐ.๐ด๐ฏ for incapacity, death benefits and funeral expenses, and ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฑ.๐ฎ๐ฏ for donations. Total: about ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ญ๐ฐ.๐ฎ๐ฏ. What lasting public health return does this produce compared with doctors on wards?
โข RDC structures are being funded.
Uganda reportedly has 146 RDCs, 170 Deputy RDCs and 432 Assistant RDCs, total 748 officials. Their proposed salary enhancement requires an extra ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฎ๐ต.๐ฌ๐ณ๐ต๐ฏ every year.
Add the reported ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ฏ for LC I to LC V political leader facilitation, and that is about ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฑ๐ต๐ฏ. In what way does this benefit the common Ugandan?
โข Donations are funded.
State House donations reportedly consumed ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ณ๐ฑ๐ญ๐ฏ over seven financial years. In 2023/24 alone, donations were budgeted at ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ญ๐ด.๐ญ๐ฏ, but actual spending reached ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ด๐ฌ.๐ญ๐ด๐ฏ. If tens and hundreds of billions can be found for donations, how does ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฏ to ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฏ for over 2,000 medical interns become impossible?
โข Health was not protected with the same urgency.
The Ministry of Health vote fell from about ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ญ. ๐ฒ๐ต๐ฏ ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐น๐น๐ถ๐ผ๐ป in FY2023/24 to about ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ญ. ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ฐ ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐น๐น๐ถ๐ผ๐ป in FY2024/25, a reduction of about ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฏ. Even the 2025/26 estimate of ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ญ.๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฐ ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐น๐น๐ถ๐ผ๐ป remains below the 2023/24 level. Yet health is the sector that directly touches mothers in labour, accident victims, children with malaria, emergency patients and families in public hospitals.
Now compare:
โข 2,000 interns ร Shs1m ร 12 months = ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฏ per year
โข 2,500 interns ร Shs1m ร 12 months = ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ฏ per year
โข 3,000 interns ร Shs1m ร 12 months = ๐ฆ๐ต๐ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฏ per year
Even using the Ministry of Healthโs own gross figure of Shs15.6m per intern per year, the reported 2,706 eligible interns would require about Shs42.2b. That is still small compared with what is being found for political comfort and administrative expansion.
That money is not a handout.
โจ It avails doctors on wards.
โจ It keeps emergency units covered.
โจ It supports maternity care.
โจ It fills staffing gaps in regional referrals.
โจ It protects patients.
So let us stop pretending.
This is not a numbers problem.
This is not a money problem.
It is a priority problem.
Medical interns are doctors under apprenticeship, not free labour!
#InternsNotSlaves
The Tanzanian SGR is up and running โ and is just beautiful. The Ugandan one, over 15 years later, there is nothing to show. But they rehabilitated the rickety wagons of the 1950s.
It is not the money (M7 friends steal Ush9-10 trillion annually) but seriousness.
I'm jealous.
@CanaryMugume@nbstv@nextradio_ug Would love to see them reduce their budget for once in history. The money would do a tremendous job increasing Arts teachers salaries.
