Digital readiness in schools means more than just having gadgets.

Ambrose Ruyooka, Head of ICT Research and Systems Development at @MoICT_Ug, highlights that we must consider connectivity, whether devices are available, affordable, and accessible, if teachers are skilled to use them.

AI isn’t the future, it’s the now!

Artificial Intelligence is reimaging healthcare as we know it, transforming how we detect diseases, design treatments, and deliver patient care. From predicting health risks before they become crises to enabling data-driven, personalized treatment, AI is pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in medicine.

Speaking on behalf of the PS at the 2nd Annual AI in Health Africa Conference, Ambrose Ruyooka, highlighted the power of emerging ICT innovations in shaping the future of healthcare. She called on innovators to utilize AI not to replace health workers, but to empower them, making healthcare smarter, faster, and more accessible for everyone.

In closing, he called for collaboration across Africa to build ethical, responsible & context-driven AI systems that improve lives and strengthen health systems.
“Africa’s progress will come through shared vision & cooperation.” #AIinHealthAfrica2025 |

[Government of Uganda @GovUganda]

He also cited the Sunflower AI language model, supporting multiple Ugandan languages, as a milestone in inclusive digital innovation.
“Innovation that speaks our languages uplifts those who need it most.” #AIinHealthAfrica2025

[Government of Uganda @GovUganda]

He highlighted Uganda’s progress under the Digital Transformation Roadmap — expanding rural connectivity, building digital skills & digitising public services, now at 50% online and progressing toward 95%. #AIInHealthAfrica2025

[Government of Uganda @GovUganda]

Mr. Ruyooka emphasised that AI should empower, not replace, healthcare workers, enhancing precision & access while preserving the human touch that defines care.
“AI must amplify human capacity, not replace it.”

[Government of Uganda @GovUganda]

He noted that Uganda is developing a National AI Governance Framework to guide responsible innovation with a decision expected by end of 2025 on either a comprehensive AI policy or sector-led model. #AIinHealthAfrica2025

[Government of Uganda @GovUganda]

Representing @azawedde , Mr. Ambrose Ruyooka reaffirmed Government’s commitment to advancing ethical, inclusive & locally driven AI innovation to strengthen Africa’s health systems. #AIinHealthAfrica2025

Indeed across Africa, most countries have chosen AI strategies cascading from the AU framework. Ethiopia stands out with a National AI Policy.Uganda is moving deliberately-developing a Strategy & Governance Framework that will evolve into policy aligned to AU & global standards

[ISACA Kampala Chapter @ISACAKampala]

🚀Use AI like a vehicle—decide the destination.

🤝 Ambrose Ruyooka (MoICT & NG) on using AI with intention, not fear—and why governments must move fast (right now, he notes, Ethiopia is the only African country with a global AI policy).

@IbascoLeague Honoured to be Special Guest. Spending six formative years at Ibanda SS taught me lessons of discipline, resilience, and finding purpose. My humble role as "Ballboy" gave me a love for the game and eventually led me into football administration at higher levels.

[Ruyooka @ruyoose]

From ballboy to Special Guest 🙏. Ibanda SS taught me resilience and brotherhood — lessons that still guide me today. ⚽ #IBASCOLeague #OBSpirit
