Mityana North MP Muhammad Nsegumire earlier on moved a motion to introduce a Private Member’s Bill proposing a daytime ban on heavy-tonnage trucks in Kampala’s Central Business District (CBD).
Under the proposed bill, heavy trucks would only operate between 10PM and 6AM, creating a 5-mile truck-free zone from the heart of the city during peak hours to ease severe traffic congestion, improve urban mobility, and curb road accidents.

So, the guns & bullets found in the possession of Gen Peter Elwelu, are they part of the subversive plot spearheaded by German diplomats that we were told about last year, or we're supposed to forget all about the Germans like we forgot the guns found in Bobi Wine's Arua hotel room back in 2017?
Regardless, I must give the UPDF credit for the fact they carried out a raid on a house with guns in Namanve - just a few kilometres from Kampala - but were so professional, efficient, & discreet that no one saw anything! Not resident of the area with a phone, an askari, or stranger with a camera phone to zoom in from a distance, or a loud mouth to say what they saw. The Navy Seals in Abbottabad practiced for years but still crashed a helicopter while at it; and someone even tweeted the unusual sight of helicopters there at 1 am! They must be green with envy seeing how the Mighty UPDF makes these things look like kids' play!
Even more, the UPDF itself must be commended for not sharing any photos of videos of raid - just the finished products, guns! That level of taking the right to privacy seriously is special for an African army, man! Some may even say they were "unnecessarily" serious while at it!
Of course when Elwelu is captured, a photo of his half-naked body - with his HUGE tummy - will find its way to Twitter at 1 am or thereabout, but that is not surprising given that men's tummies, generally, do not enjoy the same right to privacy as their houses in Uganda. Good start on our path to the right to privacy though...

Today makes 1year since Ssemujju Nganda warned Gen.Elwelu about the CDF on the floor of Parliament.
"Gen.Elwelu there, he was called a buffoon by the CDF"
"We are all victims of this one man called the CDF"

Profesor ekonomii na uniwersytecie stwierdził, że kiedyś oblał całą klasę. Ta klasa upierała się, że socjalizm działa i że nikt nie powinien być biedny, a nikt bogaty, że wszyscy są równi...
Nauczyciel powiedział im: „OK, przeprowadzimy eksperyment z socjalizmem w tej grupie.
Wszystkie oceny będą uśrednione, a każdy dostanie tę samą ocenę, więc nikt nie oblany i nikt nie dostanie 10”.
Po pierwszym teście oceny zostały zsumowane i podzielone przez liczbę studentów, i każdy dostał 8.
Studenci, którzy uczyli się intensywnie, byli zdenerwowani, ale ci, którzy uczyli się mniej, byli zachwyceni.
Gdy zbliżał się drugi test, studenci, którzy wcześniej uczyli się trochę, uczyli się jeszcze mniej, a ci, którzy uczyli się intensywniej, powiedzieli sobie, że oni też chcą „darmowego prezentu”, więc też uczyli się mniej.
Średnia z drugiego testu wyniosła 6.
Gdy przeprowadzono trzeci test, średnia ocena wyniosła 4. Ku wielkiemu zaskoczeniu wszystkich studentów, wszyscy oblali.
Nauczyciel powiedział im, że socjalizm w końcu zawiedzie, ponieważ gdy połowa populacji widzi, że nie musi pracować, bo druga połowa się nimi zajmie, a gdy ta połowa, która pracowała, zdaje sobie sprawę, że nie ma sensu już pracować, bo inni korzystają z ich pracy, to jest koniec każdego narodu.
Ta historia może być bajką, a nie faktem, ale morał jest prawdziwy.

Fellow Ugandans, let's nolonger allow @BalaamBarugahar, @JustineNameere to manipulate our mindsets with claims of fighting corruption. Today, I want to expose the reality, despite holding solid academic qualifications, majority of local government drivers are paid a meager 200k shillings per month. How can we expect to eradicate corruption when people are compensated so poorly. Many don't understand the hardships these drivers endure. If a vehicle gets scratched, the fine is deducted from their pockets. They're denied medical insurance and basic benefits, yet mandatory NSSF contributions are still deducted from their pay checks. How is anyone supposed to survive on this under the current political and economical crisis.
Distributing such pitiful wages leaves these workers unable to pay rent or afford school fees for their children. One would expect entry level local government drivers to earn at least 700k, and experienced ones to make 1m shillings per month. Instead, they receive 200k a sum that feels more like a tip than salary. Meanwhile, @BalaamBarugahar constantly parades himself as a champion against corruption, while the system quietly exploits its most essential workers.
