I will undertake a series of visits to selected public universities from 3rd to 6th November 2026, beginning at Soroti University, followed by Lira University, Muni University and Gulu University.
The visits will focus on assessing models for commercialising university research outputs and turning them into viable businesses. I will also tour selected research and innovation laboratories and workspaces to better understand the opportunities and support needed to move research from the university into the marketplace.
Research must create practical solutions, enterprises and jobs that contribute to Uganda’s socio-economic transformation.

I joined the Rt. Hon. Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja, fellow Ministers, UN agencies under @UNinUganda, and other development partners to launch the Food Security and Nutrition Assessment Reports.
The reports highlight food insecurity and nutritional challenges affecting parts of the country, identify the underlying causes, and propose targeted interventions to address them.
Addressing these challenges requires coordinated action among Government, development partners, and local communities to strengthen food systems, improve nutrition, and ensure that vulnerable households have access to adequate food. @KagutaMuseveni@mkainerugaba@OPMUganda
@LillianAber@UNinUganda Thank You Hon. @LillianAber for Your Dedication and Commitment to Serving the People of Uganda. Your Energy, Passion for Youth and Education, and Steadfast Service to the Nation is TRULY Inspiring and Commendable.

@EngJonard@KagutaMuseveni@mkainerugaba Well done Hon. Minister @JonardAsiimwe. Thank You for ABLY representing Uganda and SHOWCASING our local innovations on the continental stage. Strengthening University-industry linkage and AfCFTA market access is the way to go for African STI. @STIsecretariat
Pastor Anatoli Mugenyi expresses his sincere gratitude to Hon. Jonard Asiimwe Akiiki for his tremendous support toward completing the church. He also extends his appreciation to H.E. President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, whom Hon. Jonard represented at his installation as President of the SDA Western Uganda Field.
A proud milestone for the church and its community.
This afternoon, I was warmly welcomed in Kikwite, Hoima City. Thank you for the warm welcome. I am here to represent H.E. President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni at the installation of Pastor Anatoli Mugenyi as President of the Western Uganda Field of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
We are working on IP registration. Young people should be able to make money from their ideas. It is important for people aged 25 to 45 to be actively involved in generating income. Our focus here is to ensure that young people below the age of 40 are involved in building their country. With this, we shall be able to realise the $500 billion economy.
Reciting the $500 billion economy is not very enticing, but the methodology is much more important.

Uganda is a perl of Africa. From the cool morning mist over our great lakes to the golden rhythm of the evening breeze, Uganda is more than a place on a map—it is a feeling of home. It is the laughter in the bustling streets, the grace of the crested crane, the rich green of the land, and a spirit that welcomes the world with open hands. May your beauty ever flourish, your peace ever deepen, and your story continue to inspire the world. For God and my Country."

Fellow citizens,
I have seen some reports in the media about the on-going validation exercise of the staff of the Parliamentary Service.
There is no panic. There's bliss!
For fairness and transparency, I requested the assistance of Head of Public Service because Parliamentary service is indeed Public Service .
It is not the interest of the new leadership of Parliament to see anyone lose a job. The nation should not overthink this. Everyone should take it easy and keep serving.
I would like to assure the country that this exercise is a normal process. What we are doing is a simple exercise of restoring morale ,intergrity and sanity in the parliamentary service.
When you are called a senior, you should actually be a senior. When you are a principal, you should actually be a principal. You can become a director whether you joined in 2024 or 2026, but it must come with the right qualifications and experience.
Think of public service as a race.
Everyone should begin from the same starting line and run fairly to the finish. That is all this validation seeks to ensure.
I grew up through merit. I did interviews from the entry point and was shortlisted among many. I had no god parent in public service God was instead, my parent. I know it is possible to grow. And as Parliamentary Service, we are taking the lead on this.
I, therefore, appeal for patience and all staff should remain calm and go about their activities normally.
@EngJonard@STIsecretariat@KagutaMuseveni@mkainerugaba Thank You Sir for Your dedication and for Championing STI Commercialization in Uganda. I wish You the best of luck in Kween. Northern Uganda can't wait to receive You on Thursday. Safe travels.
En route to Kween District for a Sericulture engagement, with STI Secretariat officials advance efforts to commercialise science, technology and innovation in Uganda

@EngJonard@KagutaMuseveni@mkainerugaba Thank You Sir for Your dedication and hard work for the Nation. Your Commitment to Ensuring EDiC delivers REAL VALUE for our Ten-Fold Growth Strategy is TRULY Commendable. I Appreciate Your Visionary Leadership.
Dear @KKariisa , Group CEO,@nextmediaug ,
Today, I want to say thank you. Thank you for nurturing me, for believing in me, and for trusting me. We have talked about many things over the years, but one conversation stands out: let’s put Northern Uganda on the map.
Today, I give you your flowers. You have been more than a boss. Wherever my journey takes me, I will always be a Transformer.
To the many of you who mentored me, thank you. Madam Goretti, @Imokola , @joycebagala1 , @DaltonKaweesa@PayiraBonnie: you believed in my talent before the world knew my name, and you pushed me every single day. I am deeply grateful.
As I transition into corporate and development communication with @NUSAFIV and @OPMUganda , a lot has been said. My clarity is in the video below.
As I bow out of the newsroom, I am proud to share that this year I founded @fourthhub_ug in Gulu, one of the biggest media and creative hubs in the region. Under the leadership of our team lead, @OjokOkot_ , this dream has been a long time coming, and finally, Northern Uganda has its first creative hub.
Thank you all for the warm wishes and the love on social media. I humbly appreciate every one of you. To my @NBSBreakingNews family, @SimonKaggwaNjal@ShamNabakooza@SamsonMKasumba@CanaryMugume@TusiimeSheila@HakimKanyere@HakiimsWampamba@OmagorJoseph@ObadiaOtim@poshaaloyo@RonnieMcVex and many more, thank you.
“From Africa Raw Materials Dialogue to Africa Raw Materials and Value Addition Dialogue.”
I am pleased that the Second Russian–African Raw Materials Dialogue in St. Petersburg adopted my proposal to include value addition. Africa must move beyond supplying factory feedstock and build its capacity to process resources, manufacture products and create greater value for our people.
