This afternoon senior executives from Nedbank Group and NCBA Group paid a courtesy call on Governor Atingi-Ego where they discussed Nedbank Group's proposed acquisition of 66% of the ordinary shares from NCBA shareholders, subject to regulatory approval. Strong regulatory oversight results in sound financial institutions and a resilient financial system, ensuring that the financial system remains stable, trusted, and capable of supporting economic activity sustainably.
Entebbe International Airport Traffic Update – February 2026
Entebbe International Airport recorded 189,575 international passengers in February 2026, comprising 90,007 arrivals and 99,568 departures, an average of approximately 6,770 arrivals and departures per day.
This represents a 39,387 increase from the 150,188 passengers recorded in January 2026. The February 2025 figure is also higher than that recorded in the same month of February 2025 by 30,072 arrivals and departures.
In February 2025, the airport handled 159,503 international passengers (73,524 arrivals and 85,979 departures).
On the cargo front, February 2026 recorded 2,955 metric tonnes of exports and 1,543 metric tonnes of imports, totaling 4,498 metric tonnes, up from 3,982 metric tonnes in January 2026. This also reflects an increase from February 2025, which recorded 3,157 metric tonnes of exports and 1,389 metric tonnes of imports.
Overall, the upward trend in both passenger and cargo traffic highlights sustained growth in air transport activity. However, with parts of the Middle East airspace closed from February 28, 2026, and only a phased resumption of operations currently underway, several operators from Entebbe have been affected. As a result, traffic for March 2026 is expected to be lower.
At a time of global turmoil and great challenge, we look for signs of hope in the everyday.
To Irish people and friends of Ireland everywhere, we wish you a very happy St Patrick’s Day!
