WATCH: Members of the Basiita clan on Friday made a cultural announcement following the death of Tooro King Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru IV. The announcement followed a directive by Omujwera Musuuga Charles Kamurasi, head of the Babiito royal clan and uncle to the late King Oyo. The Basiita gathered at a kaswa, a small raised hill, where they sounded an alarm to notify subjects of the Tooro Kingdom about the death of the King. The ritual is part of the traditional system used to communicate significant events within the kingdom, particularly the death of a reigning monarch.

Today, I was very happy and honoured to meet the American superstar Tyrese Gibson. I told him to consider Uganda as his second home and bring more of our black brothers and sisters in America to visit.
Dear Gen. @mkainerugaba, CDF
We, the concerned citizens, respectfully request justice for the officer.
We urge that the law be applied to protect the dignity of the SFC personal in uniform and all security personnel. Yes the man was so humble and calm, but he deserve justice.
The U.S. is stepping up its response to the Ebola outbreak in the DRC, Uganda, and the region. The @StateDept intends to provide an additional $242 million in funding for immediate response, preparedness, and humanitarian assistance, bringing total Ebola support to more than $512 million.
Together with regional partners, the U.S. is strengthening surveillance, treatment, border screening, and community engagement to help contain the outbreak and protect global health security.

To some brothers of mine who are not bothered by what is going on in our local governments and cities, this is a “pit latrine” with out a pit that cost taxpayers UGX 73 million. Is this the Uganda we want? This is unacceptable.
My brother Simon and others on x , this is exactly why the #ExposeTheCorrupt campaign must continue. No one will stop this train. There are still a few hours and days left for repentance.
When you steal public funds, you will be exposed publicly. If you hate humiliation, don’t tamper with or misuse public resources. Every shilling belongs to the people and must be used for its intended purpose. Let us improve our public infrastructure, strengthen service delivery, and restore accountability in local government.
I sincerely thank the DISOs of Mbale and Bulambuli, the CID officers, the State House Anti-Corruption Unit, the DPC Mbale, RPC Twalla, the DPC Bulambuli, the outgoing Deputy RDC of Bulambuli, the RDC of Mbale District, and all patriotic Ugandans led by our General Secretary, Hon. Twalla Fadhil, together with all the Area Members of Parliament for Mbale and Bulambuli, who have supported the #ExposeTheCorrupt campaign so far.
I also appeal to all staff in the Office of the President, ISO, Crime Intelligence officers, RDCs, and every patriotic Ugandan to join and support the #ExposeTheCorrupt movement. Together, let us protect taxpayers’ money, improve public infrastructure, and deliver the quality services our people deserve.
Health Minister Dr. Chris Baryomunsi was left in shock last night due to the devastating conditions at Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital where he had made an abrupt visit.

General MK,
I am one of your good supporters and a young person who believes in your leadership. With utmost respect and humility, I kindly appeal to your sense of mercy and compassion regarding Mr. Elias Lukwago.
While there may have been disagreements and actions that caused hurt, he was often carrying out professional duties on behalf of his client.
I interracted with him at court a few days and his health by all indications, is not in the best condition.
Many of us young people who support you would be deeply encouraged to see such compassion prevail.
We do not wish to see his health deteriorate further. I just ask for your mercy as my leader. Hear my plea. He is sick.
May God bless you and continue to guide you.
Summons are not issued by lawyers. Summons are issued by the @JudiciaryUG . Receive the summons and ascertain which judicial officer issued them, then take them to for Swahili lessons. Otherwise you are in the basement with the wrong lawyer.
