Football is a trinity of Sport, Business and Governance
Whereas I acknowledge the sporting efforts being done by different individuals to promote the @UPL, we also need to build the brand value of the league
It is wrong to undertake an interview of a sporting band like the @StarTimesUganda sponsored league in a Boston Celtics a pro basketball franchise jacket
It is called brand mixed messaging.
As a fan I am not sure whether what is being promoted is the UPL or NBA.
It is brand building which creates perception. We all buy perception not reality. We cannot sell what buyers (fans) have not perceived as a need but a want
We shall all learn with time
Kati ogenda kuwulira bukajajata..
In June 2013, I wanted to contest for the @OfficialFUFA Presidency. The law was quickly amended to keep me out. I am back to say I am still available for that task. I can bring about the footballing glory all we Ugandans dream of. Time to save our football from thieves. Let’s take back our game

It is always insightful distilling presentations at the flagship @ICPAU1 annual Public Finance Management Conference. Implementation of good PFM principles has an accelerator effect on development, particularly for the NDPIV & 10-fold growth ambition. @NPA_UG@JosephMuvawala
I’ve come to realize that the greatest hack to living your best life is KNOWING WHAT YOU DON'T WANT.
Knowing what you want may set you in motion, but it’s knowing what you don’t want that protects your path and sharpens your choices.
As in, being Gumite for your standards.
It was insightful discussing the Completion Report of the outgoing @AfDB_Group Uganda Country Strategy Paper (CSP) & dialogue on the priorities of the successor CSP.
The transformative multiplier impact of synergies & partnerships cannot be undermined. @JosephMuvawala@rggoobi
Day 2 of the #SUNMovement ESA CSN @SUNCSNUganda regional meetings was a deep dive into strengthening advocacy communication, navigating legal & policy entry points, and building technical capacity on nutrition accountability frameworks. #NutritionAdvocacy
We moved beyond just talking about evidence. The focus was on how alliances can translate complex technical data into persuasive messaging that actually influences decision-makers. Key lessons included:
Tailoring messages for specific audiences (MPs, Ministries, Media).
Followed by an afternoon session which was hands-on! We put the accountability framework tool into practice. This session built on our 4 prior online trainings and focused on tracking #N4G commitments at the country level.
The tool is designed to:
✅ Harmonize monitoring across ESA countries.
✅ Support national & regional reporting.
✅ Strengthen CSO advocacy with hard evidence.
We learned to track political commitments, identify credible data sources, and use outcome-based monitoring (like the Average Annual Rate of Reduction - AARR) to measure real progress. #FoodBankBotswana
