Uganda Recorded 2 Million Births in 2025, But Health Services Aren't Keeping Up — PS Atwine
The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Health, Dr. Diana Atwine has revealed that in 2025, there were 2million babies born in Uganda, although the number would be higher at around 3million, hadn’t it been to those lost to death.
She made the revelation while appearing before Parliament’s Public Accounts Committee (PAC), during the scrutiny of the December 2025 Auditor General’s report, where she admitted that the growth in population isn’t being matched with the growth in health services.

The NRM does its work organically; we don't rush into things. If you do, you won't succeed. We haven't accomplished much in sports yet, as our initial focus was on the basics: peace, immunization, and wealth creation. Now, Sebei's population has grown from 20,000 in the 1960s to over half a million due to immunization and peace.
