Help me make sense of this. So, a traffic officer stops me, runs my car number in his machine, and tells me I have a fine I have never paid for ‘reckless driving’. The fine, it shows, was issued to someone whose name I’ve never even heard about. But the car details are mine. And I have never given my car to anyone in the said period, or any other - not even a mechanic! So, we called the said person in loud and asked him if he knows me. He said he knows ‘Spire Kiggundu the cartoonist’ but has never met him beyond seeing him on X. When the officer went on to explain and ask more questions, the guy sounded unamused, and hang up. Confused, the traffic officer let me go and told me to go and try appealing if I’m sure it’s a mistake. I failed to make sense of the whole thing. How could that be? @PoliceUg
This is not right.
Respect Doctors. Respect Health Professionals.
You can’t just enter theater and humiliate Doctors in this way.
Someone will ask, “Do you support extortion?” The answer is NO!
However, many of the doctors falling victim to these accusations are simply trying to help patients. They often need specific supplies to carry out their duties, yet these supplies are frequently unavailable in hospital stock. When doctors try to find ways to save patients under such circumstances, some clueless politicians seize the opportunity to humiliate and discredit these innocent professionals.
Should doctors abandon their duty to save lives because of your rubbish politics?
Imagine a hospital running out of something as basic as gloves. Should a doctor simply refuse to perform a life-saving surgery because gloves are unavailable? And in the end, who suffers? THE PATIENT!
We must distinguish between genuine extortion and desperate attempts by healthcare workers to obtain the supplies they need to save lives. Accountability is important, but so is ensuring that hospitals are adequately stocked.
Stop politicising healthcare at the expense of patients’ lives.

@AKasingye@PoliceUg What strategy has been laid to attain this in Uganda? Growth of a nation is procedural and plans have to be well laid such that people aren't borken...
