#Earlier: The Minister of State for Energy, Hon. Sidronius Okaasai Opolot is pushing for a shift from use of charcoal/ firewood for cooking to electricity.

Opolot who was appearing before the Committee on Climate Change chaired by Hon. Aggrey Bagiire, said the move is part of the ministry’s broader effort to reduce reliance on biomass which he said is damaging the environment and contributing to climate change.

He said the continued use of firewood and charcoal is also a public health concern, particularly for women and children who are most exposed to household cooking smoke. #CommitteesUg

State Minister for Energy, Hon. Sidronius Okaasai says his ministry is going to install more transformers to stabilise power in areas with weak electricity lines. #PlenaryUg

The dead aren’t dead. Is the spirit of the late Speaker Hon. Jacob L’Okori Oulanyah finally catching up with the corrupt?

[Hon Mwesigye Frank @MwesigyeFranks]

The Clerk to Parliament is the Accounting Officer of Parliament. Arresting the junior officers while leaving the person ultimately responsible in office completely unbothered, is like washing your clothes and then throwing them back into the mud.

Let all corrupt officials be arrested without turning a blind eye to anyone. This anti-corruption operation must be conducted with complete fairness and equality. Whether someone supports the NRM, PLU, or any other political affiliation, no one involved in corruption should be spared. Accountability must apply to everyone equally.
