[Uganda Embassy, Cairo @CairoUganda]

When H.E. Amb. Lt. Gen. Charles Angina of Uganda Embassy Cairo hosted Ambassadors, another chance to showcase the Taste of Uganda. From luwombo, gonja to iconic Uganda Waragi, every flavour told a story. Uganda's rich cuisine is one of our greatest ambassadors.

Truth is, for us to truly thrive, we need good governance. Everything else's just posturing on eggshells.

Stop gaslighting pple into patriotism banditry amid abductions, press muzzling, etc.

You don't defend a country by demanding silence. You defend it by demanding better 🇺🇬

UWA is conducting a 10-day aerial survey in Bokora–Matheniko Wildlife Reserve to assess wildlife populations, habitat conditions, and emerging threats. The findings will inform conservation efforts and sustainable wildlife management.

Poverty also robs time. In their book, Scarcity, authors Sendhil Mullainathan and Eldar Shafir show that scarcity affects the way people manage their time. Those less financially wealthy are often time-poor.

How a Staged Highway Crash Triggered the Fall of Uganda Tyrant Idi Amin
ON 19 April 1978, a staged car crash on the Jinja highway nearly claimed the life of Uganda’s Vice President, General Mustafa Adrisi. A station wagon rammed Adrisi’s Mercedes from the front, while his own military escort vehicle struck him from behind, sparking a fatal shootout between his bodyguards and the escort soldiers.
Adrisi survived with severe fractures and was flown to Cairo for treatment. Recognising that the army's Northern officer corps was fracturing along tribal lines, Idi Amin immediately launched an aggressive political counter-offensive.
Using state media, Amin issued a stern warning to the public and the armed forces, declaring that any discussion of an assassination plot or internal division would be treated as treason. He immediately stripped the hospitalised Adrisi of his defense and internal affairs portfolios, initiating a purge of Adrisi’s sympathisers within the government.
The warning backfired. Soldiers of the elite Simba Regiment in Mbarara, loyal to Adrisi, realised they were next on the purge list and mutinied. To distract from this internal military rebellion, Amin ordered the invasion of Tanzania's Kagera Salient later that year—a miscalculation that provoked the counter-invasion that toppled his regime in April 1979.

This man, has carried the Men’s agenda flag so high for the last 4 years. Started Muntu Wa Wansi educational & sensitization programs on social media, that have shaped men into real men. He has also empowered them about their rights & responsibilities. Does he even know the families he has protected & family feuds prevented as a result? He’s so humble & doesn’t even brag about it as long as he’s served above self. I hope this post will trigger a national award soon. I celebrate you @kyamageroandrew

Thoroughly enjoyed catching up with my fellow marketing "historical" @StKyamutetera. We compared notes on a topic that's precious to us both i.e. turbo charging Uganda's tourism sector to achieve its full potential.

As always with Kyam (hot-blooded and passionate on all things Uganda) one cannot expect to agree on every aspect but one area we found concensus on, is that Destinations do not grow simply because they are marketed.

They grow faster and more sustainably because people invest in experiences that travellers are willing to pay for. Marketing will bring visitors through the door, but it is the quality and variety of experiences that keeps them longer, brings them back and turns them into ambassadors for a destination.

The paradigm shift in how we bring Explore Uganda to life, is already in motion. We saw it at POATE, where the private sector set the stage; showcasing their ability to compete on a global stage and an innate ambition to grow, innovate and attract more visitors to our destination.

Even so, gakyali mabaga..(we're just getting started..) Public-private partnership is critical in diversifying our tourism offering and creating new experiences that augment our unique basket of natural assets. The highlights of my conversation with @CEOEastAfrica Magazine are shared below.

UWA – Ishasha

We are privileged to share the exciting news of a newborn lion cub in Ishasha. We sighted the cub today in good health while it was feeding alongside the pride on a fresh kill.

This is a wonderful sight and a positive sign for the continued conservation of lions in the Ishasha sector. We look forward to watching this young cub grow and thrive in the wild.

It's hard for me to explain to those outside #Uganda just how irritated the Ugandans are to be lumped in with DRC for the #Ebola epidemic. As of this writing, there have been hundreds of deaths and over 1000 cases in Congo, whereas Uganda has had only 9 cases -- three Congolese, four medical workers who treated them, one driver who drove them, and one other known contact. Only one person has died in Uganda, a Congolese.

So when WHO and Al Jazeera talks about the Ebola epidemic in "Congo and Uganda," it's like saying because there are wildfires in California, you should cancel a trip to the Grand Canyon because some Californians lit a campfire there. Yes, it is possible it *could* spread and you have to be vigilant, but these two situations are nowhere near the same magnitude.

As of this writing, the only Ugandan death has been the tourism industry.

[Andrew Kyamagero @kyamageroandrew]

Let us speak with epidemiological discipline. Let the record be clean.

👉If there are Ebola deaths in Uganda, state them with source, district, date, and confirmation.
👉If the deaths are in DRC, do not baptise Uganda into another nation’s mortality statistics.
👉If the number is regional, say regional.
👉If the risk is cross-border, say cross-border.

Public health communication must inform without inflaming, warn without wounding, and protect without creating unnecessary panic.

Facts are not decoration. In an outbreak, facts are medicine.
