🚨 Opposition MP Betty Nambooze gave a rare and heartfelt tribute to retired General David Muhoozi, praising his remarkable humility, calmness, and professionalism during his appearance in Parliament.
She described him as a true role model for young Ugandans, highlighting his respectful conduct despite political differences.
Gen David Muhoozi's humility, calm demeanor, and professionalism have earned him deep respect across Uganda's political divide. A true gentleman who served the country with integrity, many Ugandans see him as a genuine role model and a good man at heart.
Ban Ki-moon, then secretary-general of the United Nations, commented on how, in his visits to some of the most forgotten areas of the world, there was a common factor: the presence of Cuban doctors.
“They are always the first to arrive and the last to leave.”
I would like to sincerely thank H.E. Yoweri Kaguta Museveni for appointing my old man, Hon. Sanjay Tanna, as Cabinet Minister for Trade.
Congratulations @STanna444 upon your appointment. It is truly an honour to serve the nation alongside my father, and an even greater responsibility to serve Uganda with dedication and humility.
Ethiopia's export exploding from $3 billion to $10 billion thanks to Ethiopia Tamirt.
In 2025, Ethiopia launched "Ethiopia Tamirt" initiative (Made in Ethiopia) which was meant to drive production and consumption of Ethiopian made products.
The initiative saw over 750 industries entering into manufacturing and attracted massive support from Ethiopians.
From the initiative, Ethiopia has saved $4.85 billion in imports and manufacturing sector has grown jumped from 4.8% to 13% in nine months.
Meanwhile the drive has also improved Ethiopian exports from $3 billion in 2025 to $10 billion expected by the end of 2026.
HON. DR. SAM MAYANJA: In today's Uganda, a kibanja holder has more rights and control than a registered land title owner. You can buy land, hold the title, and still need permission from the occupant. The law has flipped ownership on its head.
In Kenya, there’s a type of affordable beef known as “Nyama ya Gum Boots” (Meat of the Gum Boots).
In one of the large meat markets in Kenya, there’s an army of workers whose job is to unload the meat once it arrives. While unloading, they arm themselves with small pocket knives, which they use to cut off pieces of meat as they ferry it to the store. Since they can’t slip the meat into their pockets without getting noticed , they prefer dipping it into their gumboots instead.
Hence the name “Nyama ya Gumboots.”
This meat is later sold affordably to small hotels.

Fellow Ugandans, especially the Bazzukulu, following a scientific assessment by our CBRN team, I have written to Matongo Wood Works Company confirming that traditional wooden food containers made from omunyama (mahogany) and omusisa (albizia) are safe and durable. I have directed support for this initiative so that we free ourselves from the colonial habit of relying on fragile and unsafe ebyatika (the breakables).
Our indigenous knowledge systems served our people well for generations. It is time to consciously revive and promote them as part of building a self-reliant and modern Ugandan economy.
Look Kenyans, let us stop the problem identified by Karl Max as the opium of the masses. I cannot pay for your school fees to study law, and the first thing you demand is I renovate your Church. No! That cannot be a propriety when we do not have enough schools, hospitals, industries and roads. I am unapologetically sorry. I will not do that!
Offences related to "fake news" were killed by the Supreme Court in the Onyango Obbo judgment and the Constitutional Court buried them in the Alternative Digitalk judgment. Prosecuting under void laws is not discretion. It is abuse of process and power. #FreeExpression
I hear some have been Ambassadors since 1986? How is that possible? Their appointments are older than 80% of Ugandans? We want young people as Ambassadors.

BREAKING:
🇮🇷🇺🇸The Iranian embassy in South Africa posted photos of the two commanders who ordered the attack on the school that killed 180 children and wrote:
“Remember these two criminals. Leigh R. Tate, the commander, and Jeffrey E. York, the executive officer of the USS Spruance, who ordered the launch of Tomahawk missiles three times, killing 168 innocent children at a school in Minab.
Don’t they have children of their own?”
I HOPE AFRICAN COUNTRIES ARE LEARNING FROM ALL OF THIS.
Other countries complain that their hills and mountains are liabilities.
But Iran has managed to turn them into weapon cities.
Do you think if their weapons and factories were in the open like many other countries, they would still be throwing missiles?
The US and Israel would likely have crippled them already with all the bombs thrown so far.
But Iran is still heavy on missiles and is ready to go as far as anyone wants.
Why?
Because they turned hills and mountains into fortresses where they've kept planes, warships, missiles, missile systems, and factories protected.
Today leaders threaten them to accept defeat — but their underground strength keeps them standing.
These are lessons for African countries.
What are we doing with all the water resources across Africa?
Some regions of the Middle East refine salty water just to survive.
But Africa has vast fresh water sources.
What are we doing with the oil, rare earth minerals, gold, and natural resources across the continent?
Instead of using them to develop our nations, only a few benefit while many countries remain underdeveloped.
This war is revealing lessons that should make African leaders and citizens think deeply.
Iran has been under sanctions for decades, yet look at what they built under pressure.
China faced sanctions, tariffs, and blockades for years — yet still developed strong industries.
Many African countries have had independence for decades.
What have we achieved with that freedom?
Whether we accept it or not, foreign interests often target African resources.
Because of the wealth beneath African soil that is still underused.
Africa is blessed with enormous potential.
The real question is:
Are we using what we have to build strength, security, and prosperity — or wasting opportunities that future generations will need?
