@wekesa_amos you are an inspiration to so many. Attended this event and couldn’t help but think how uniquely positioned Uganda is . And thanks to people like you that have started a tribe of pathfinders to unveil Uganda’s hidden gems.

@samuel_leeds Good to hear this . Looking to develop a hospitality app to help businesses turn their staff into world class 5star employees. Help is needed here.

Train our people ; we have the most horrible work ethic in the entire East Africa . Customer service just doesn't exist anywhere .

[Nelson Besigye @nelbasix]

How can this narrative be changed . Well here is one: - Market the heck out of our products ... Hasn't this been the song with the longest lifespan on our chats ?

[Amos Wekesa @wekesa_amos]

@IvanSsemugenyiK That’s very true. Just look at tourism, no single tour operator in uganda turns over 6m dollars annually

They have many who turn over between usd 50m and 120m annually

Hotels are even worse

@wekesa_amos When anything is compared to Mulondo , there is no way Ugandans are not paying attention. #Obalina

@Thomas_Tayebwa But when shall we be a society that respects and enforces laws ?The second last line of your post quotes "weak regulation". Why are we still grappling with this phrase when we are templates of success for others in the region. Law makers need to really step up.

[Thomas Tayebwa @Thomas_Tayebwa]

Thank you for the overwhelming responses to my post about the harassment I received from an agent of Mangu Cash using the mobile number 0788135455. There seem to be very many companies of this nature without physical traceability, no records of paying taxes, no customer care centers to handle complaints, and they run online terror squads threatening to shame innocent victims. I have since received many testimonies of people who have been undergoing torture and harassment without help. For those saying they’re glad it happened to me since we ignored @regesa when he raised the red flag, you are right, only that I didn’t know about this campaign. I was happy to talk to him yesterday, and he shared deeply concerning information about these predators. I’m told they use threats once you raise a public concern about them and even use courts to silence people. We are now going to take it on seriously. If the issue is about weak regulation, we are going to do whatever it takes to have it sorted. They have to either shape up or ship out.

[Nelson Besigye @nelbasix]

@Thomas_Tayebwa ; the below is a drop in the ocean of what Ugandans are going through on a daily .It goes down to Landlords and tenants , Bodaboda cyclists and pedestrians ,consumers and producers .I think you need a Townhall discussion with Ugandan to get to the bottom of this.

[Thomas Tayebwa @Thomas_Tayebwa]

Whoever is regulating these online lenders should crack the whip on them. I have just received a call from some tough-speaking lady claiming to be from Mangu Cash threatening to deduct their loan money if I don't produce some random person who put my name as their next of kin when they were borrowing. I think a lot of criminality is going on. I hope our telecoms do not allow their mobile money platforms to be used to carry out fraud orchestrated by such unscrupulous companies. @Tom_Magambo you need to interest your self in this sector many Ugandans might be dying quietly.

[Nelson Besigye @nelbasix]

@wekesa_amos I hope this message helps paint the big picture. @JenniferMusisi was a stellar game changer at KCCA . We just need to find people that are intent on building systems and not afraid of shaking up some people along the way.
