Current Ebola update as of 4 June 2026.
It’s important to note that all the cases under treatment are progressing and recovering well.
The new case is a Congolese national, an imported case.
The country remains safe and open for business, leisure and trade.

This morning, I held a press briefing at Uganda's Media Centre regarding the 37th Heroes' celebrations arrangements.
On the 9th of June 2026, Uganda is scheduled to hold celebrations marking the 37th Heroes' Day Anniversary at State House Entebbe in a scientific manner.
The implication is that there won't be a public gathering in some specific venue as it has been in the previous years. The change in the nature of our commemoration has been due to the fact that the country is observing strict Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) due to the Ebola pandemic.
Rationale for the virtual celebrations: As you may recall, on 16th May 2026, H.E. the President of the Republic of Uganda, after consultation with the National Epidemic Response Task Force and religious leaders, decided to postpone the much-anticipated
Annual Uganda Martyrs' Pilgrimage due to the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo. This is on account that Uganda receives thousands of pilgrims annually from Eastern Congo. which is currently experiencing an Ebola outbreak; hence the need to safeguard everyone's life.
Subsequently, on 17th May 2026, the Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO) also declared the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda and that it constitutes a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC).
As you may notice, the Heroes Day celebrations fall only 6 (six) days after the Uganda Martyrs Day of 3rd June; it thus makes sense to assume that it may not be possible to congregate Ugandans at Kololo on 9th June 2026.
Since the 37th Heroes' Day Anniversary Celebrations fall immediately after a successful function of the swearing-in and inaugural ceremonies of the president-elect; the National Organising Committee has decided to maintain the theme of the swearing-in at the 37th Heroes' Day Celebrations: "Protecting the Gains as we make a Qualitative Leap into High Middle-Income Status."
H.E. President Yoweri Museveni @KagutaMuseveni will officiate at the function and will be joined by less than twenty-five (25) guests, chosen from the three Arms of government, religious leaders and representatives from the Luwero Triangle Veteran Association. The rest of the country will receive the President's message via the national broadcaster, the UBC, and other broadcasters that have national audiences.
Thanksgiving prayers shall be held throughout the country to commemorate this auspicious day. I call upon all Ugandans to attend these prayers in your respective places of worship on the designated dates as follows:
Friday 5th June, 2026: Prayers in all mosques; Saturday 6th June, 2026: Prayers in all Seventh Day Adventist Churches and Sunday 7th June, 2026: Prayers in all the other churches.
At the moment, we have not yet received any indications of state visitors to grace the occasion. I will brief the country on this matter as new developments unfold.
As the government takes charge of managing the Ebola pandemic, I urge all Ugandans to follow the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to combat the spread of Ebola Virus Disease (EVD). Regularly wash your hands with clean running water and soap, or use alcohol-based hand sanitisers. Avoid touching bodily fluids (blood, saliva, sweat, vomit) and surfaces.
The Heroes' Day remains a public holiday.
Museveni: I used to ride a bicycle from Kazo to Rwakitura. Today, you hear a Muluka Chief demanding a motorcycle. For what? Let them ride bicycles. I am tired of this culture of parasitism and entitlement. This is the time to speak plainly and honestly

Museveni: We are revamping the metre-gauge railway and constructing the standard-gauge railway. We are also working closely with Tanzania and Kenya on pipeline infrastructure for the transportation of crude oil and refined petroleum products

@MNathan26@Parliament_Ug Let them also decline the monthly payments....
Just wasting our time.
Actually the Parliament of uganda should be dissolved for about 20 years.

General David Rubakuba Muhoozi has been recalled to the Uganda People’s Defence Force (UPDF) for redeployment after being dropped from the recent cabinet reshuffle. The four-star general served as Minister of State for Internal Affairs from 2021 until this month.
Born on 27 September 1965 in Mbarara District, Muhoozi is one of fourteen children of a retired police officer. He joined the NRA in 1985, was commissioned in 1989, and built a long career across the military.

His return to full-time military duty puts his vast experience back in the UPDF, though his exact new posting has not yet been announced.
