This is to thank @mkainerugaba in a special way for his guidance at every stage during the negotiations with countries that have ebola related travel advisories in place. Our thanks go to those countries that have lifted travel advisories which include United Arab Emirates, India, Mauritius and Thailand. We continue to actively talk to countries that still maintain travel advisories to consider lifting them.
Anybody who has analyzed and read Andrew Mwenda's social media posts regarding the entire Toro Kingdom saga since the passing of King Oyo, and indeed way back before the passing of the king, and looked at the whole picture of the kingdom and the Babiito clan, should be careful about accepting the easiest explanation.
The easy reading is that this is simply a Babiito speaking his mind, or a commentator raising legitimate questions about the kingdom. Fine. But that explanation becomes harder to sustain when you step back and examine the totality of the posts, the chronology, and the repeated focus on the late King Oyo and the former Queen Mother, Best Kemigisa.
That is where my concern begins. I am not saying that every criticism he makes is automatically illegitimate. I am saying that, taken together, his endless outbursts appear to us to go beyond policy and principle. They increasingly read like personal resentment being presented through the language of public commentary.
We have forensically tracked those attacks against the Queen Mother, and we are simply not prepared to become participants in that private conflict. The same pattern appeared when people tried to correct him. The response was often venomous, with attacks directed at anyone who challenged his position.
So I am not interested in being recruited into somebody else's bitterness. He may call himself a Babiito clan member. That does not make every narrative he advances above scrutiny.
If those sentiments are personal, they should remain personal.
We have moved on.
@AndrewMwenda
Andrew Mwenda’s determination to cast Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba as the central figure driving Uganda’s state affairs has cost him the basic instincts of both a human being and a journalist.
He’s less interested in reporting reality than in manufacturing an image of Muhoozi as the omnipotent fixer, the man behind every solution to Uganda’s problems.
Accuracy, nuance, and even consequences no longer matter to him anymore.
@KagutaMuseveni Reminder! AAA had properties before and M7 also contributed to building her hospital and school. Do you know how much schools and hospitals generate? Take a look at all the private schools and hospitals
@KagutaMuseveni Mr. President, I respect your decision, but I must honestly say I am disappointed by the mercy extended to a former Speaker implicated in corruption. Mercy is noble, but accountability must also prevail if we are to build a just and corruption-free Uganda.
@KagutaMuseveni Thank You Mr. President, you might not see this but i'll leave it here incase: the cost of living has tripled every FY but the salary is static never increases and same money is used to cater 4 all the basic needs for this public servant and their family. For God and My Country.
@KagutaMuseveni Ministers Barugahara and Nameere are doing a commendable job. Those criticizing them are obviously enemies of progress. Thank you, Mzee, for appointing ministers who are passionate and enthusiastic.
@KagutaMuseveni Going directly to the people can help expose challenges that may otherwise remain hidden. President Yoweri Museveni's call for citizens to report corruption and government officers to reject cover-ups sends a strong message that public resources must serve the people. #
