Today, I handed over to Devki Steel Mills part of the land it requires to commence iron ore mining activities in Rubanda District. More land will be acquired for mining activities in the same area.

I thank the @ministry_lands for acquiring the land for this important project. The @MEMD_Uganda will soon issue the company with a mining licence, now that it has got the mining area.

This project will create jobs for the people of Rubanda District and beyond. The iron ore will be processed into steel products for both the domestic and regional markets.

Mufumba, a small, quiet village nestled among rolling hills covered with terraced crop fields in Rubanda District, will soon bustle with activity, thanks to the large iron ore deposits beneath its surface.

Today, Rt. Hon. Prime Minister @R_Nabbanja handed over land to Devki Steel Mills for iron ore mining in Mufumba. Jobs will be created for Ugandans, and iron ore will be processed into steel products.

“Government plans to support nationwide waste sorting at source, requiring households, businesses, and institutions to separate their garbage before disposal. Sorted waste can be turned into manure to improve crop yields.”

[Sam Engola @SamEngola3]

I held a discussion with a delegation from the @WorldBankGroup at my office regarding a new initiative: the Refugee Credit Access and Digital Verification Pilot.

For years, we have worked to ensure that refugees in Uganda are not merely hosted, but truly empowered. Many have built thriving businesses and sustainable livelihoods. Yet, too often, they remain locked out of formal credit because financial institutions cannot easily verify their identities. This pilot is designed to remove that barrier.

Implemented jointly by the @OPMUganda, @NITAUganda1, @UNHCRuganda, financial regulators, and licensed institutions, our approach is practical: start small, learn directly from the ground, include host communities, and scale up what works.

I extend my sincere thanks to the @WorldBankGroup for their steadfast partnership.

Pandemics such as COVID-19 have amplified the need for countries and regions to have trained teams ready to respond to public health emergencies.

The @WHO is now working with member countries to build such teams, which can be deployed when public health emergencies occur.

On behalf of the Permanent Secretary, the Commissioner for Monitoring and Evaluation Mr Timothy Lubanga launched the Uganda National Global Health Emergency Corps at the Golden Tulip Hotel in Kampala.
