[The Observer @observerug]

The now-deceased Tooro kingdom leader visited some high-end hospitals in Kampala after feeling persistent backpain. X-rays, MRI scans later, they told him they saw nothing.

Being a person of means, he flew to a hospital in Nairobi where he was diagnosed with cancer. A year later he was dead. What did the doctors in Nairobi see that the Kampala ones couldn’t?

Well, Nairobi has a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan or a few. Kampala and the whole of Uganda don’t. A PET scan costs about $3m (Shs 11.7bn) or approximately 17 Land Cruisers.

If there was a meeting of government officials, you would run out of space to park them. That is how many we have in Uganda but a PET Scan is not something we have been able to buy and install yet.

We honour honour a life whose sense of duty and dedication will remain woven into the story of our nation.

Rest in peace Omukama Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV 🕊️👑🇺🇬

[Yoweri K Museveni @KagutaMuseveni]

Today, I received the body of His Majesty King Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV, at Entebbe International Airport.

The Queen Mother first informed me of his illness in November 2025, and we supported efforts to secure specialised treatment for him in Germany and later in the United States. Unfortunately, he died.

Throughout his reign as King of Tooro, Oyo was a good person and a good leader. His passing is a great loss to the people of Tooro and Uganda.

I encourage the people of Tooro to remain calm and avoid disorganisation, even in this difficult time.
May the Lord grant him eternal rest. Amen.

That nagging pain that feels like you were family. Memories from a distance that feel like you were so close. Royalty that came with unusual humility and low profile. No drama, no harm, no noise - just human.

retweeting this because we need more awareness breast cancer is so scary

Dude found a lost phone and held it up until the owner came to unlock it with Face ID. Everyone holding their breath while he tries to unlock his phone. When it finally opens, crowd erupts in cheers. 🥳

Wholesome humanity in seconds. ❤️

You send her to a studio and she will come out with ten voices of the same message in different languages. Note! It is dangerous to backbite someone. Both NIRA and AI need her services.

[Patrick Oyulu, MPH @patrickoyulu]

NIRA Deployed a Linguistic Weapon.

Somewhere in Uganda, a @NIRA_Ug Registrar just dropped the mic - not with force, but with fluency. In one short video clip, she glided from English to Luganda, Lusoga, Runyankore, Alur, and Swahili like a United Nations interpreter on Red Bull. If there were language Olympics, Claire Ollama would be taking home gold… and still have enough breath to read the 7 o’clock news.

This isn’t just public communication - it’s public connection. At a time when access to services hinges on trust and clarity, Claire has redefined civic engagement armed with nothing but grace, charisma, and cultural fluency.

And let’s be clear: she’s not with the Police (though they could certainly borrow a page). She’s from the National Identification and Registration Authority - NIRA. Yes, the same institution we only talk about when we’ve lost our ID or fear our fingerprints have “disappeared.”

Whoever handles HR at NIRA: give this woman a raise, a medal, or at the very least a fuel allowance. Because if more public servants spoke to us like Claire, Ugandans might start lining up early just to be addressed with dignity.

Claire Ollama from Paidha, you didn’t just inform us - you translated trust. Kudos, Registrar. Uganda has heard you - loud, clear, and in six languages.

Watch the video. Then rewatch it. Then clap. #Uganda

We seem to be living in interesting times. John, we bumped into each other as you were entering and we were exiting a hotel lobby. You asked for a photo and we gladly obliged as we do to all who ask. If you would like us having any chat we can have one as we do to all who ask.

This post is dedicated to the new Tortured Poets section of the Eras Tour (aka Female Rage The Musical!) and everyone who made these memories so magical. To my crew, fellow performers, and band who worked tirelessly in their break to concoct this surprise for you - but mostly for the fans in Paris. I’m so thankful that it was you we got to show this to for the first time because you gave us so much excitement, passion, and love. I’m SO fired up to play this for every crowd on the tour. See you very soon, Stockholm! 🤍
