MAMA MIRIA MATEMBE WORDS:

“I am not asking to run away. I am asking to be treated as a human being. I came seeking medical attention because I know my body, and I know something is wrong. Please allow me to go for the scan. If you need evidence, let the medical examination provide it. Evidence should not only come from paperwork when a person’s condition is right before your eyes.
I ask for mercy, justice, and compassion. May God give us all hearts that value human dignity. Justice without humanity is not justice at all.”

Seeing a 73-year-old woman in such a frail condition and then hearing she has been sent to Luzira is heartbreaking. I pray that her health is protected, that she receives any medical care she needs, and that justice is administered fairly and transparently.

Uganda belongs to all of us. May we never lose our compassion for one another, even in times of deep political disagreement.

Lord, heal our land. Grant wisdom to our leaders, justice to our institutions, and peace to our nation. 🇺🇬🙏🏾

@GovUganda The policy isn't just a administrative roadblock; it's a wound to the heart of Ugandan healthcare

[Jonathan C Wambede @jc_wambede]

@GovUganda A hungry, frustrated, and financially stranded intern is being forced to choose between self-preservation and patient care. And when the system forces that choice, it is the ordinary citizen, who cannot afford private care, who pays the ultimate price.

[Nyanjura Doreen Omutatina @DoreenNyanjura]

For years, medical interns have protested to increase their monthly allowance from 750,000 UGX. Despite the Head of State’s pledge to fulfill the increment to 2,500,000 UGX, and in the face of a skyrocketing cost of living, the government has found a brilliant solution to the high cost of living; scrapping the allowance entirely instead of raising it. Apparently, when food, rent, and medical care become too expensive, doctors are expected to live on pure patriotism.

With this new development, the crisis in our public health centers will only get more dire.

Friends, this is no longer just an interns' battle, it is a crisis that affects every single Ugandan. We must all demand a fair treatment for our frontline health workers.

I took this photo at Kayunga Regional Referral Hospital around May last year.
For those who don't know what medical interns actually do, let me share a small story.

One night as a medical student, I decided to spend time in theatre to learn. I was working with an intern doctor who was on call. That night, she had 6 emergency Caesarean sections to perform. I assisted in the first 3 surgeries and by around 3 am I was exhausted. I told her I was going to sleep because I had lectures at 8 am. the next morning. She smiled and told me to go.
The next day, after my lectures, I passed through the postnatal ward and found the same doctor reviewing patients. She had worked through the night, spent hours in theatre, and was still on the wards attending to mothers.
That was the day I truly understood that internship is not just another year of training. It is frontline hospital work.

When people hear "intern," they often imagine someone observing and learning. In reality, many interns are reviewing patients, responding to emergencies, assisting and performing procedures, covering night shifts, and helping keep hospitals running.

As the debate on intern allowances continues, I keep thinking about that night in Kayunga.

If we expect young doctors to carry that level of responsibility and workload, can we honestly say their welfare doesn't matter?

[FRNK Asiimwe @RubabindaJr]

I'll be there speaking for the voiceless, weak & vulnerable; not because of genetics but just because they are young.
The neonates of the medical professional must be protected from inferticider & colostrum snatchers who negotitiate to fill their own pockets.
So help me God.
