Well done @PoliceUg. Could you also update us on the elderly woman who was captured on video throwing a stone at Sydney?

[Uganda Police Force @PoliceUg]

. @KawalaRachael "Two additional suspects have been arrested in connection with the death of Sydney Gongodyo, a professional rugby player, following an incident that occurred on 5 June 2026.

The suspects have been identified as Mugwiisa Obed and Owino Joseph, a security guard. Mugwiisa Obed was captured in video footage wearing a yellow T-shirt and carrying a large log during the incident. During interrogation, he led investigators to a local laundry (dobbi) where he had taken the yellow T-shirt he was seen wearing on the day of the attack. The garment was subsequently recovered as part of the ongoing investigations.

Their arrest brings the total number of suspects currently in custody to ten (10) as investigations into the alleged mob killing continue.

Efforts are ongoing to identify, trace, and apprehend other individuals believed to have participated in the incident.

We remain committed to ensuring that all those responsible for this criminal act are held accountable and brought to justice in accordance with the law.

Further updates will be provided as investigations progress.

Madueke grabbed Nuno Mendes' arm, pulled him to the floor then asked for a foul.

He should be playing for OKC.

Someone takes six hours to text you back. Then you meet up and they check their phone every couple of minutes, right in front of you. Same person, opposite behavior. Texting you and checking that phone come from two different parts of the brain, and only one is a choice.

Texting you back is work. They have to read what you said, think of a reply, get the tone right, and hit send. Anything that feels like a chore is easy to put off, the way an unread email can sit there for days. Your text is also out of sight, so there is no reminder in the room that you are waiting. The reply just slides down the list.

Checking the phone is the opposite. It happens on its own. A team at Aalto University in Finland watched how people use their phones and found most of it is tiny, automatic checks. Each one is quick: unlock the screen, look at a single app, put it down, usually in under thirty seconds. People do it over and over without ever deciding to, so often that they lose count. The average comes out to about 186 times a day, roughly once every five minutes you are awake.

Your phone works like a slot machine. Every time you look, there might be a message from someone you like, a funny video, a notification, or nothing at all. You never know which. That not-knowing is the hook. The chemical behind it is dopamine, and dopamine runs on anticipation, the pull you feel while waiting to see what you get. It spikes highest when you cannot guess what is coming. Your text, already read and sitting there, has no surprise left in it. The brain reaches for the mystery in the locked screen instead of the chore of replying to you.

So when they grab their phone at dinner, it usually has nothing to do with you. Researchers at Virginia Tech found that just having a phone face up on the table makes both people enjoy the conversation less and feel less understood, and it hits hardest between close friends. The phone does not even need to buzz to pull someone halfway out of the room.

Their slow replies and their constant checking were never a contradiction. One is a chore they keep dodging. The other is a reflex they cannot even feel themselves doing.

This is the reason why Italy is not progressing as a footballing nation.

How could you possibly expect the game to grow when you alternate between the same 10 managers at top clubs for 2 decades?

[Ororo😎 @McFlybowy]

Italian football, especially Serie A, will start competing properly with fellow top 5 leagues team again when they stop recycling the same ideas and same coaches over and over again. Right now the league is behind for many reasons, Financial capacity, but one of the biggest is that they’re not competing aggressively for coaching talent or even player talent the way the EPL does. When was the last time you saw an Italian team compete for signing of the best player in the World? Or the best Coach?

You keep seeing the same managers rotate between clubs every 2-3 years, same structures, same conservative football culture, same tactical comfort zones. There’s barely any fresh external influence entering the league. And football evolves too fast for that.

Look at what happened to the Premier League with the arrivals of Pep Guardiola and Jürgen Klopp it completely changed the tactical level of the league. Teams had to press better, build better, recruit smarter, improve conditioning, improve technical security, improve coaching structures. Their influence forced everyone else to evolve too, even down to Championship level.

Now look at Serie A. The league still has tactical intelligence, history and passionate football culture, but it often feels inward-looking. The infrastructure is aging, financial power is weaker, and innovation arrives slower than in England, Germany or even parts of Spain now.

That’s why when someone like Cesc Fabregas comes with modern positional ideas, courage in possession, and progressive coaching methods, people immediately notice it because it feels different from the norm.

Serie A still produces good teams, but the league needs disruption. It needs more foreign ideas, younger coaches, more risk-taking in recruitment, and clubs willing to think ahead instead of constantly revisiting the past.

Tabz presents a big challenge for journalism. In the past 2–3 days, he has put out hundreds of posts on X, a few correct, but many speculative or utterly false. Yet some news sites have published everything he posted as news.

Habibi, the people Gilbert Bukenya called “the mafia” are using the current Speaker to squeeze out any signs of political life left in Kadaga. Kadaga’s political death knell will ring within weeks from now. Almost immediately, the same people will then turn with the same viciousness on the current Speaker. By December next year, she’ll not believe what hit her.

Ugandan politicians are more alike than they believe. Somehow, each of them think they’ll succeed where others failed, or they have a sort of Pentecostal favour that makes them immune from suffering the same fate as those before them, in the hands of the same people, under the same circumstances: until it is too late.

But, a good way to read the tea leaves of NRM political intrigue is that whoever is up next for slaughter is fattened by using them to first fight some powerful people. This way, they become arrogant - thinking they are untouchable and that the “big man” is on their side. This in turn makes them so unpopular that when their hour of slaughter comes, it is the one thing many looked forward to, even prayed for. Also, the NRM is a one-man show. Save for those related by blood, whoever flies too high suffers the fate of Icarus.

Yet, for all Uganda’s dramatic political falls, nothing will match the fall Among that should start soon after the 2026 elections. We shall be there! ✌️🏾

[wes @weskambale]

we've seen one of the fastest trials in this country endin' in a death penalty

as much as y'all would like to believe that serves justice, that judgment has also laid the groundwork for revivin' the death penalty from its cold, dormant state

and once the machinery is tested and normalized, it rarely stays confined to one case

i'm afraid we're goin' to see it handed out again soon

we all know someone has repeatedly gone about talkin' of hangin' Dr. Kizza-Besigye and President Kyagulanyi

words matter when they come from power, because they often signal intent long before policy catches up

treason, a charge that has been thrown around like a hot potato at political opponents, carries the death penalty

with its resurrection amid escalated politically motivated charges, there's no sayin' how far the kampala establishment is willin' to go

[The Observer @observerug]

So...

The President proposes his beautiful Bill.

Somehow, this “beautiful Bill” is hijacked by a Cabinet that sits every Monday at his official residence.

And these Cabinet meetings are chaired by the President, or his delegate.

Anyway…

Clauses
Not one, not two, not three, not four, not five... are inserted.

The Attorney General, a member of Cabinet, directly appointed by the President, and the government’s designated legal adviser, somehow sees all this.

And advises that the Bill be sent to the Ministry of Finance, for which the President is the official minister, to obtain the mandatory Certificate of Financial Implications.

The Ministry of Finance duly issues the Certificate of Financial Implications.

And the Bill, now laden with all the smuggled-in clauses, is tabled by the Minister of State for Internal Affairs -another direct appointee and member of Cabinet.

It is tabled in a Parliament whose Speaker swears to follow and fall in the name of the President, His Son, and the Daughters.

Your Cabinet is present.
Your Attorney General is present.

For the next two weeks, your Attorney General vehemently defends the Bill on the floor and across your government’s media.

Your latest big blue fish recruit, a law professor, almost without prompting, steps in to defend the Bill nonetheless.

Your toad-eaters, who, also swear by the Father, if not the Son, besmirch anyone opposed to the Bill, branding them vent merchants and foreign agents.

Conductor?
