New face. Same briefcase.
Finance Minister, Hon. @henrymusasizi1 has arrived at Kololo and is expected to deliver his maiden National Budget speech on behalf of the President. #PlenaryUg#UGBudget2026
Dear MOH, we don’t want your sweet talks.
We want only ONE thing for ALL our medical interns and that is EQAUL TREATMENT! 📌
That idea of giving full support to government sponsored interns while offering only lunch to the rest is also discriminatory and unacceptable. We have rejected it. 🙅♀️
Pay ALL medical interns. They have the same qualifications and work under the same tough conditions.
What makes you think one group deserves full support while the other gets only lunch? Where is the justification for this discrimination?
#EqualPayForAllInterns
Medical interns cannot work for just lunch, who will pay their rent? Who will pay for their transport? This is not fair. We demand for fair treatment for All medical interns

Uganda Medical Association rejects government's lunch-instead-of-allowance offer to interns
UMA president Dr Frank Asiimwe said intern doctors require more than a single meal, noting that they also need support for breakfast, dinner, transport and healthcare

Many healthcare challenges are not caused by a lack of knowledge.
They are caused by gaps in access, mentorship, opportunity, and systems
Today, I am excited to begin the 2026 GSNSMP as a Coordinator and mentee.
The journey towards surgical equity starts with empowering people.

Sending doctors to work a 36-hour shift hungry, homeless, and hopeless is not training, it’s exploitation
Removing intern allowances directly compromises patient safety. Broken, exhausted interns cannot heal patients. 📌📌
Invest in intern doctors now

The idea that some interns deserve only "lunch" and others deserve allowance is very wrong @CHRISBARYOMUNS1. We are no longer students and we have the same responsibilities at the hospitals with the same basic needs. We are ready to discuss when called upon.
@GovUganda has finally revealed its plan for how medical interns are expected to survive while attending to patients:
Meals: "sorted"
Accommodation: "sorted"
Transport: "sorted"
