This is why I keep telling men: never assume your sacrifice guarantees loyalty.
I’ve been teaching this for a long time. I hope some of you are finally paying attention.
This isn’t rare. It’s happening in real life. Some of you are living through it in silence. Some have already experienced it. If it hasn’t happened to you, learn from other men’s mistakes instead of assuming you’re different.
A woman’s loyalty is driven by how she feels, not by how much you’ve spent on her or sacrificed for her. She can cheat with a man who hasn’t even bought her a glass of wine.
Men, protect your heart. Learn the patterns. Don’t get played.
“Why are you selling children [your daughters]”
May I never get to a level of ‘bukopi’, Fred and shamelessness that would make me demand for material things in exchange for my daughter

Today Morning , I intercepted a school van transporting pupils under dangerously overcrowded conditions. This is a stark reminder of how road negligence threatens our most vulnerable.
Our children's safety is non-negotiable. I have called on traffic police to strictly enforce safety regulations and clamp down on school vehicle overloading.
To school proprietors, headteachers, and drivers: our children are not cargo. They are the future of Uganda. Take full responsibility for their safety. No convenience is worth a child’s life. Let’s choose safety, always.
UPDATE: I have a clear directive from the President to sort out local government, and from my chairman, the CDF. My security has been enhanced, and therefore, I will not fear anyone. ~ Minister @BalaamBarugahar
Waking up to 100+ birthday messages from Saturday to date reminded me I’m richer than I thought. Rich in people, love, and memories.
Thank you for the calls, texts, moneys, stories, prayers, and even the memes. You made me feel like a celebrity for 24 hours 😂 . God bless you🖤

In 1879, Ugandan healers were performing cesarean sections with a survival rate that stunned European doctors—while much of the "civilized" world still saw the procedure as a death sentence.
British explorer Robert Felkin documented the operation in detail. The surgeon used banana wine as an antiseptic, herbal anesthetics to manage pain, and cauterization with a hot iron to control bleeding. The mother survived. The baby survived. The technique worked.
This wasn't primitive luck. It was sophisticated medical knowledge passed down through generations—refined, systematic, life-saving.
Yet the dominant narrative tells us modern medicine arrived in Africa with colonizers and that before European intervention, the continent had no science, no innovation, no expertise.
But here's the contradiction: if African medical practices were so "backward," why were European observers documenting them with awe? Why were these techniques—rooted in empirical observation and botanical knowledge—producing outcomes that Europe itself struggled to achieve until the late 19th century?
The Buganda Kingdom had what the British Empire didn't: working cesarean sections that saved lives.
So what else were we doing that got erased, ignored, or rebranded as "discovered" by someone else?

Supporters say President Museveni taking on the EU and European Parliament officials proves he’s Africa’s lion-philosopher and Uganda’s main development engine. Critics say the Bobi Wine would bring vibes, not vision. #INDvsPAK Only God #GenevaSummit2026#INDvPAK#TikTokLite 🧵
