Fellow Ugandans,
Recent public discourse has raised questions about the National CCTV system following investigations into its maintenance contract at the @mia_uga . It is important to clarify that these investigations concern procurement and maintenance processes, and should not be conflated with the operational effectiveness of the cameras themselves.๐
The National CCTV Network remains largely functional and continues to play a vital role in crime prevention and investigation across the country. Current assessments indicate that the system is operating at approximately ๐๐% ๐๐๐ฉ๐๐๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ฆ๐ฉ๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐๐ญ๐ซ๐จ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐๐ง ๐๐จ๐ฅ๐ข๐๐ ๐๐ซ๐๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ซ ๐๐ % ๐ข๐ง ๐ฎ๐ฉ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐ญ๐ซ๐ฒ ๐ซ๐๐ ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ.

These issues are routinely addressed through ongoing collaboration between relevant agencies. @mtnug@Airtel_Ug
To the general public: lets continue reporting all crimes and suspicious activities to the @PoliceUg . The CCTV system, where operational, provides valuable evidentiary support and significantly strengthens investigations. Your vigilance and prompt reports remain essential to maintaining law and order.

Many incidents are recorded and reviewed in real time, and footage continues to assist in arrests and prosecutions. The long arm of the law remains actively engaged. @CID1_UG@Tom_Magambo
My appeal to all citizens is to support our security agencies by providing timely and accurate information. A safer Uganda depends on our collective responsibility, transparency, and trust in the systems designed to protect us.
@UNRA_UG@assempebwa now that I can't use Entebbe Expressway due to NAM summit, what will happen to my trips that are likely to expire? #upesimonthlycard
