You take ages looking for a job. Connections, dumped CVs, lies, waiting at the counter for whole day, months, & walk the streets hungry, tired & walking with a worn out shoe. The moment you get the job, your attitude changes, the ethical values imparted unto you by your mother vanish in the air. You start to cheat your employer, judge your bosses & workmates, make fictitious entries & claims, spend whole day in social media, invite your tribe & friends at your work place, report late & leave early. Why should you forget years of suffering, living at your friends places, begging for food & transport but add no value to your employer? Guys, think again. It’s good to point fingers at others on X for being corrupt but, do an introspection of yourself. You let your God down who heard all your prayers, your loved ones & yourself. Be honest. Work hard. Add value to your institutions or companies. God will reward you highly.
@kutegyekaivan1@BajeProducts@BalaamBarugahar Nedda! Nakaseke and the neighboring parts of *Limpopo* where you find an individual owning hundreds of acres of land with no activity taking place
@kutegyekaivan1@BajeProducts But riyale as a country blessed with fertile soils &a favorable env't, why sh'ld we reach here?
Ministers @BalaamBarugahar & your Sister Justine, spare some time and look into those idle acres of lands for both individuals and government and make good use of them tuswala!!!
Uganda’s development agenda is anchored on seven key economic growth pillars that drive national transformation.
These pillars align with Uganda’s Vision 2040 and national development plans, all designed to transition the country into a dynamic economy.
Can we all agree that in a world of influencers, Z-listers, TikToks, badly acted ads, brand collabs, people filming themselves crying…the Artemis livestream of 4 middle-aged scientists doing their jobs is genuinely the best most authentic content of the century? Thanks @NASA🌚
James Mugoya Isabirye is a Ugandan Tycoon Who Built Times Tower, NSSF Building, Kabarak University & Moi High School-Kabarak. He also constructed Mombasa road and had a site at machakos junction. James Mugoya is an engineer and a billionaire businessman.
He is the founder and owner of the famous Mugoya Construction & Engineering Limited, behind the construction of some of the most iconic projects in Kenya.
Mugoya was one of the most politically-connected contractors in Kenya and bagged several development projects during the reign of late Mzee moi. The iconic Times Towers and the NSSF Embakasi housing projects are some of the notable projects undertaken by the company.
Mugoya was born in 1950 in Eastern Uganda. He attended Uganda’s Bulyansime Primary before joining Iganga Boys. He then proceeded to King’s College Budo before later joining the University of Nairobi where he obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Civil engineering.
He graduated on October 26, 1971 at a ceremony witnessed by President Jomo Kenyatta. He was registered as Abiam JM Isabirye in a class that had 46 students. During his time at UoN, Mugoya is said to have forged a great friendship with one of Mzee Moi’s sons.
Immediately after graduation, he founded Mugoya Construction & Engineering Limited and almost immediately, he landed the deals to build the NSSF building and Hazina Estate. In 1992, Mugoya landed a tender to construct the 40-storey Times Tower building which was the tallest at the time.
The project was financed by the Central bank of Kenya (CBK) and the state. He also built Moi High School, Kabarak, Kabarak University and the Kisumu Provincial Headquarters.
In 1995, NSSF awarded Mugoya a contract to construct 265 houses in Karen, together with an administration block, a club house and a kindergarten. However, the project failed to start due to pending approvals from Nairobi City Council.
Mugoya was paid Ksh342 million in 2012 as an out-of-court settlement for the very project after he had initially claimed Ksh633 million. He wanted to buy a small town in Eastern Uganda called Busembatya.
He wanted to develop it into a city but Museveni refused. Mugoya was once arrested and charged in Nairobi for defrauding kcb hundreds of millions. Those who indulge in kazi ya mjengo say No construction company pays fundis better like Mugoya.

Watch: Is Ntege the wake-up call we needed?
To those without context, Ntege James is a senior five student (BCM) at St Maria Goretti Katende. His former school violated his rights as a student living with a disability when it declined to register him for additional support. UNEB could not facilitate him with an assistant during UCE. additional time during exams was also declined. Consequently, Ntege was graded like other students because he was not assessed prior. This affected his performance.
He has turned this injustice into advocacy, using his voice to emphasize that the education policy is not just a poster on the wall; it must be enforced. We must use Ntege as a mirror to see how children like him are judged, not understood, and their rights violated for simply being different.
I hope @Educ_SportsUg and @UNEB_UG take this matter seriously to help others facing the same.
A surgical center in rural Uganda runs entirely off-grid.
Solar power. Teak screens, woven Nile reed ceilings, clay tiles made by local potters.
This is what African architecture looks like when planned with intention.
