Today, the President of Uganda @KagutaMuseveni will deliver the State of the Nation Address under Article 101(1) of the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda.
It states in substance that the President shall, at the beginning of each session of Parliament, deliver an address on the state of the nation and may also address Parliament on any matter of national importance.
Uganda’s proposed medical education and internship reforms deserve careful reconsideration. Medical training and healthcare are pillars of human development, and Makerere Medical School remains one of Africa’s finest institutions, renowned for tropical medicine. Intern doctors bridge critical staffing gaps in our hospitals; withdrawing their financial support risks worsening workforce shortages, delaying training, increasing costs, and weakening healthcare delivery. I urge President Museveni to intervene and protect Uganda’s health sector.
