A drone display recreated the Twin Towers over New York City in tribute to the victims of the 9/11 attacks.
Organisers say the installation, featuring 2,977 lights, represented each person killed in the attacks.
Twenty-five years ago, our Nation changed forever. But September 11 is remembered not only for what we lost, but for what we found: unity, love, courage, & an unshakable patriotism.
God bless America. 🇺🇸
We were notified of the death of King Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV of Toro last evening. We are deeply saddened by the passing on of such a young, promising and avidly modern leader of Toro, Uganda and of his generation. When King Oyo was crowned in September 1995, he was a novel and beautiful king to behold. He caught the attention of the world. The global media in a lighthearted and loving moment put him in the Guinness world records as the youngest king, saying “the king retired from the solemn proceedings (of his coronation) to play with his toys and balloons”.
We never forgot the innocent playfulness of the King who grew up to become a leading voice for environmental protection of his land, enterprise, agriculture and tourism. We will remember King Oyo for his steadfastness and public standing on his faith in Christ Jesus, his humility and care for the welfare of his people and for being approachable, kind and loving of his country.
We stand with his family, the people of Toro and Uganda who knew and worked with him closely to bring progress and prosperity to Toro. Uganda will miss him.
The people of Busoga and I join the Royal Family and the people of Tooro Kingdom in mourning the passing of His Majesty Omukama Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV.
His Majesty was one of the visionary traditional leaders of our time, whose leadership, humility and commitment to preserving culture while inspiring a new generation left a lasting mark on Tooro, Uganda and beyond.
During this hour of profound grief, our thoughts and prayers are with the Royal Family and the entire people of Tooro Kingdom, who have lost a beloved King and a guiding force.
In Omukama Oyo, Uganda has lost an important voice and a distinguished cultural leader whose legacy will endure for generations.
May His Majesty’s soul rest in eternal peace.
WHAT MAKES A CURRENCY STRONG?
There has been a lot of debate in regard to what makes a currency potent.
Is it the exchange rate against the United States Dollar (USD)?; the size of the notes in your wallet?; or something else?

@Anite__Evelyn Hate her or love her, former Minister Evelyn Anite has never shied away from speaking her mind. Regardless of where you stand politically, it's hard to ignore what she's built. I give credit where it's due.
Leadership is not a title; it is a responsibility.
Leadership is about creating the future, not merely managing the present.
Great leaders are defined by integrity, resilience, and service.
