I would like to extend my gratitude to my brother, @Michealrach for enabling me to watch @UgandaRugby and fall in love again with the game starting with @HeathensRFC versus @piratesrugbyUG
Both teams demonstrated impressive skill, but my team emerged victorious. Although we didn’t advance to the finals due to points, I look forward to the next season. 🏉
They brought up this in our sit down strike in 2023. They thought they would lure us the government sponsored to go and start while we leave the privately sponsored behind.
We refused because it wasn’t those on government who were going to work the 36 hour shifts. We stayed together and demanded everyone is paid. I urge the current interns not to fall for this bait🫸🏿
Dr. Frank Asiimwe: Medical Interns are employees and must be paid to do the work. If you don't pay them, you can't control them and you aren't protecting the patients.

Medical interns are not students. They are qualified doctors in supervised apprenticeship, carrying nearly 70% of clinical work in referral hospitals.
Paying them is not charity. It is justice.
Pay interns. Protect training. Protect patients.
U.M.A NEC
The Nurse,
Pharmacists,
Dental surgeons,
Uganda Medical and Dental Practitioners Council,
Deans of Medical Schools,
the DVC Academics of the medical schools, were all not consulted.
Dead on arrival is the postmortem report for this draconian shambolic internship Policy.
1. Limited consultation
2. Changing medical course from 5 to 6 yrs requires change of curriculum
3. UMDPC doesn't license Medical Students
4. Don't send unpaid, hungry & disenfranchised medical trainees on citizens
THE DRACONIAN SHAMBOLIC TRAINING POLICY IS DEAD ON ARRIVAL.
I made this video in 2023 giving reasons why medical interns have to be paid and still relevant today.
That year, I was a medical intern and we were made to dust home for a whole year without deployment. I am still proud of what we did, we resisted slavery even when it came with losing a year.
Dear medical interns, you have t stand up and be counted. The future of medicine starts with internship and a paid one✊🏽
I'll be there speaking for the voiceless, weak & vulnerable; not because of genetics but just because they are young.
The neonates of the medical professional must be protected from inferticider & colostrum snatchers who negotitiate to fill their own pockets.
So help me God.
Medical interns are not slaves😔
Theses are frontline health workers, all of you who go to public hospitals first interface with a medical intern.
Imagine a person who’s working a 36 hour shift without rest and is not expected to be given a simple allowance😒
If we can get money for more cabinet ministers, why not medical interns😔
