Forced labour and threats are retrogressive and will work to undermine provision of health services. Learn to be honorable to just causes. We stand in solidarity with Medical Interns @MinofHealthUG@Parliament_Ug@nbstv@ntvuganda
We all have ears, but very often we cannot hear. There is, in fact, an interior deafness worse than the physical one: the deafness of the heart that we can ask Jesus to touch and heal today. #GospelOfTheDay
UPDATE: “@IsaacSemakadde, who has over the years distinguished himself as the attorney of the voiceless dons at @Makerere whose battles he has frequently won, made strong arguments [that] swayed the judge in his clients’ favour.” https://t.co/VC0G0W6kiS

We warmly congratulate the Speaker of Parliament of Uganda Rt. Hon. @JacobOulanyah and the Deputy Speaker of Parliament Hon. Anita Among upon being elected and duly sworn in to guide the Parliament of Uganda @Parliament_Ug. God bless you.
@newvisionwire Talking of earnings with little or no social and economic justice is intellectual dishonesty. @MUBASA_Official staff earn much far less and for a long time, a Professor earns 6.5M million more than a Senior Lecturer with work load three times more. Analyze these statistics please
Forum of Academic Staff of Public Universities commiserates with the Catholic Church & the nation on the passing on of Archbishop Cyprian Lwanga. At his invitation to be with him, God will find a way of making sure that his work continues. Rest in Peace @Pontifex@EWTNVatican
High handedness and unfair treatment of academic staff in public universities as if they were children will finally backfire. University teachers have a way of compensating when they are undermined. Learn to talk and resolve issues in an honest and transparent way. @Educ_SportsUg
It appears those that are supposed to address grievances of over 2700 Academic Staff out 3100 currently on strike are not in a hurry. Therefore, the staff are ready to wait. Students should equally be ready to wait @RebeccaKadagaUG@JanetMuseveni@KagutaMuseveni
On UGX 50bn we negotiated for in 2020/21 Prof @EliKatunguka & fellow VCs got UGX 8M salary increase to earn 2OM & his junior staff got UGX 100,000. This is in addition to many other benefits. Indeed he is better paid but does not mind about the quality of education @newvisionwire
Prof @EliKatunguka argues that we are paid better in East Africa. Why did he support a pay structure that undermines majority staff 2700 of 3100 and demoralise them? Do VCs mind about impacts of unjust pay structure on quality of higher education as @KagutaMuseveni envisaged?
