With the SGD16+ working group discussing the enablers of peace justice and inclusion for sustainable development; tracking the lessons and insights towards achieving SGD16 @TheWIPCentre@WereJuliet
Yesterday the Inspector General of Government (IGG) interdicted the current CEO of Uganda National Mining Company (UNMC), Mr Gerald Banaga-Baingi, and the Corporation Secretary, Lelia Bwambale, to pave way for a full investigation of the organization. Now, sources at UNMC say that Mr Banaga-Baingi is still in office.
Apparently, the chairperson of the board, Mrs Maria Kiwanuka, has not officially notified Mr Banaga-Baingi of this decision - for whatever reasons. Nonetheless, Banaga-Baingi must have read the official statement of the IGG on X (Twitter). His continued presence in office is obvious defiance of the IGG. It must therefore be aimed at covering up evidence.
I have spoken to the CDF who is also chairman of PLU and the leading person in the anti corruption crusade, Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba. He says he fully supports the decision of the IGG. Mr Banaga-Baingi’s defiance of the IGG cannot be tolerated. He is advised to leave office immediately or face the full force of the state to evict him forcefully by police or UPDF.
Friday Night Prayer: Healing & Expectation
Heavenly Father,
As this week draws to a close, I pause in Your presence with a heart full of gratitude. Thank You for carrying me through every challenge, every moment of joy, and every quiet space in between.
Lord, I lay down the weight of this week at Your feet—every worry, every wound, every unanswered question. Heal what is broken within me. Restore what’s been drained. Cleanse my spirit from anything that doesn’t reflect You.
Tonight, I ask for deep rest—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Cover my home with Your peace. Surround my loved ones with Your protection. Let Your presence be the atmosphere that fills this night.
As the weekend begins, I step into it with expectation. I believe You are already preparing blessings, divine appointments, and moments of joy. Let laughter be loud, love be deep, and grace be abundant.
Give me clarity for what’s ahead. Give me strength to release what I cannot control. And give me vision to dream boldly again.
Thank You for being faithful. Thank You for being near.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
I will continue to advocate for sustainable smart cities. Seeking to ignite a step forward for Mbarara City in transportation & green belts.

Health Workers are hesitant to be deployed in the hard to reach areas. Even in Mbarara where you wouldn’t expect to have hard to reach areas, we have health workers that cannot work in villages
The govt needs to strengthen the structures to address these issues
