Mrs. Nantumbwe Sarah Ddamulira was a wife to John Ddamulira, the @NUP_Ug supporter who was abducted from his shop at Kisekka market in 2020 and is missing to-date. Sadly, Sarah passed on this morning. Like other family members of those disappeared, Sarah has spent the last five years moving everywhere looking for her husband. It is most painful that she has passed on without finding any answers. Kitalo nnyo.
Me importa nada si se enojan, pero fue la peor presentación de Shakira en la ultima década!
La canción de por si una mierda que no tiene nada de aura mundialista, pero la cero ganas que tenía, esos lentes, su modo de mover y el playback descarado, bye #mundialdefútbol#worldcup
A new Makerere University survey reveals a stark gender imbalance in academic promotions.
While the institution recruits men and women as lecturers at nearly equal rates, men advance significantly faster to top administrative roles and senior ranks—including senior lecturer, associate professor, and professor.
The findings are part of a three-year project on mainstreaming gender in Sub-Saharan African higher education.

HAD THE WORST DAY ON SET TODAY.💔
We were finishing a skit. Good energy, everyone laughing, the kind of shoot where your body is tired but the mind wants to keep going.
I just wanted to sit down.
Something cracked. Loud. And then I was falling…
I don't even remember the in between part.
One of the crew caught me. I was gone for a few seconds. When I came back, the ceiling was above me and the pain was the kind you can't control. Flat on my back, Couldn't sit up, couldn't roll over, just there.
And then the thoughts came, A pile of them.
The MRI we don't have money budgeted for. The shoot we can't finish. The weeks, maybe, where I just lie here and watch everything I was building sit still.
And underneath all of it, the thing I've heard my content creation life
“just playing on the phone, not good enough”.
Friends and Some Family saying it like they're being honest with me.
I cried. I want to be clear about that, I actually cried. Not because I'm fragile.
Because I was on the floor of a set I scraped together, and my back had just made a sound I've never heard a body make, and I was alone with all of it in a way that's hard to explain when you're surrounded by people.
That's the part nobody talks about. You can have a crew around you and still be completely alone in what this costs.
Here's what I know, I didn't arrive at this cleanly, it came in pieces while I was lying there.
I wasn't ready to stop. That surprised me. I kept waiting to feel done, and it didn't come.
In Uganda we don't have a system that catches us when this happens. No fund. No union. No one who built infrastructure for what we're doing because nobody believed it was coming.
So we build everything ourselves and when something breaks a camera, a budget, a back, we absorb it ourselves too.
I don't want to just absorb this one quietly.
When I can stand again I want to make something that documents what this actually is. Not the highlight reel. The real cost of it, financial, physical, the years it takes from you. I want parents and Friends to watch it.
I want the people who said just playing on the phone to sit with it for a minute.
Not because I'm angry. I'm past angry.
Because there are creators in this country grinding in total silence and the silence is the thing that's actually dangerous. You start to believe what they say about you. You start to wonder if the pain is your fault for choosing this.
It isn't.
I'll be back. And I'm not coming back quiet.
What exactly are we seeking in this world, people?
What a painful life. This was a commercial motorcyclist (okada rider) in Port Harcourt. People who steal motorcycles caught him and killed him. He had been missing for a long time, and later his body was found after it had decomposed into skeletal remains.
Oh Allah, grant us a good ending.
🏆 Referee announced for 2026 #SuperCup!
We're pleased to share that Somali referee Omar Artan will officiate the highly anticipated match between PSG and Aston Villa in Salzburg.
UGX 196 billion in the current budget is allocated for donations to top government officials. Meanwhile, the pay for medical interns amounts to UGX 28 billion, yet it is not included in the budget. This means that if the funds allocated for donations were redirected to medical interns, they would be enough to pay them seven times their current salary.
