Nico Williams gives his world cup gold medal to his mom, who crossed the Sahara desert in search for a better life while pregnant with his older brother...
From the streets of Kampala to the FIFA World Cup Finals in New Jersey! ⚽️Congratulations to Uganda’s @ghettokidstfug on joining @Shakira and @BurnaBoy, bringing together sports and music on one of the🌎biggest stages! Your talent and hard work have inspired millions, and we can’t wait to see what you do next.
Hon Muwanga Kivumbi's whereabouts remain unknown following his abduction, with his family, lawyers being unable to locate him. The regime has normalized its violations in citizens.

#Uganda has hired more DC lobbyists — a Trump supporter's firm and a Democrat-linked one — in yet another attempt to ward off sanctions. Fact: no amount of PR spin or lobbying can varnish the increasingly violent and tyrannical rule of Museveni's regime.

Mr @KagutaMuseveni you're to face court martial for lying to Ugandans and the entire world that IDDI AMIN was a dictator. we've seen how a true dictator behaves, bcoz ever
Since you came in power in 1986, more than 100,000 Ugandans have been killed by you. you managed to destroy the entire education system which was strong during Amin's regime. You always arrest and kidnap your opponents. The country has a lot of mineral resources, but it's only you and your family members benefited in it. Corruption is a key to success in your regime. For now you've started to create fear in Ugandans, so that you get a gap of bringing your son for president. Amin and Obote managed to build strong health sectors, but who destroyed everything. We're in the country where you stopped students to study political and civic education, Now I would like you describe for me a real dictator according to your understanding.
This morning, our comrades who are battling with trumped up charges of ‘unlawful drilling’ appeared before the Kanyanya Magistrates Court in Kawempe for a verdict on their bail.
However, the presiding magistrate declined to grant them bail maintaining that their release would ‘compromise’ the investigations!
These comrades have been on remand for a lengthy period and therefore qualify for mandatory bail on just this ground. It’s unfortunate that the would be temple of justice has been reduced to an enabler of persecution.

So, this global Award/Trophy, for which you were congratulating me here, that it is a contribution to the country … I’m learning from DHL that brought it, that I’m supposed to pay taxes for it - over 1 million! @URAuganda, is that so?
Sending my thoughts to the families who lost their loved ones in the road accident that occurred yesterday at Bobi Trading Centre, Omoro District, along the highway to Gulu. I extend condolences to them and wish a quick recovery to those who survived with injuries.
We owe it to ourselves to make our roads safer through better infrastructure and proper maintenance, otherwise these recurring tragedies have become too normal! May the souls of the departed rest in eternal peace.
