🇺🇬 By 3rd November 2026, Kiruddu National Referral Hospital had exhausted its November dialysis supplies and was ordering for December, director Dr Charles Kabugo told MPs.

He said the hospital was seeking supplementary funding and conducting 80 to 90 dialysis sessions a day, including overnight.

“Now we are ordering for December.”

Earlier today, I was hosted by @rotaractkololo in partnership with @SDGsNow for a fire talk on HIV Prevention. This session educated Rotaractors and other attendees on practical HIV prevention and post-exposure strategies in response to Uganda's high infection rates as released released by @MinofHealthUG 's UPHIA report. I explored essential, life saving options specifically PrEP for protection before potential exposure, with magical drug Lenacapavir, PEP for urgent prevention after exposure, and comprehensive testing and follow-up care to empower attendees to proactively protect their health in this era.

I was asked some of the myths on HIV Prevention- and chose to emphasise on the fact that "endowment with sexual fluids" as frequently used doesn't protect against contracting the virus. I also elaborated on the concept of U=U, in which consistent regular use of HIV medicines leads to suppression of virus and lowers ability to transmit HIV - one the magical targets of HIV/AIDS care and treatment that has been abused by certain "Religious leaders" that prayers cure HIV; thus derailing efforts of the fight in ending HIV.

We’re in Bamutakudde this weekend for a health camp, bringing lung health services closer to the community.

With the Lung Institute serving over 6,000 patients annually, the burden of respiratory illness is real.

Don’t ignore persistent cough, difficulty breathing or other worrying symptoms.

Today, I hosted Alan Kasujja, the newly appointed Executive Director of the Uganda Media Centre, he came around with his team from the Centre.

I emphasized that Uganda must be known not only for its natural beauty, but for the quality, competence, and character of its people. Ugandans abroad and at home are powerful ambassadors whose excellence reflects directly on our country and strengthens our global standing.

I underscored the central role of effective communication in national development, ensuring that citizens understand government programs, opportunities, and how to benefit from them. Without this, many remain unaware and unable to improve their livelihoods.

I also called for communication that promotes unity, mutual respect, and constructive dialogue, reminding that Uganda is big enough for all of us. A united population is key to achieving meaningful social and economic transformation.

We look forward to working together to build a stronger, more informed, and cohesive nation.

I had the pleasure of hosting the Jamaican Queen of Dancehall, SPICE, at the Kingdom Headquarters, Bulange.

Her presence in Uganda is a powerful reminder of how global cultural icons can elevate our visibility on the world stage. As she prepares to perform this Saturday, 9th May, at the Lugogo Cricket Oval, I encourage Ugandans to come out and experience her craft.

Beyond the stage, her collaboration with the Uganda Tourism Board @TourismBoardUg and the Buganda Heritage and Tourism Board @TourBugandaUG to tour and showcase Uganda’s beauty is commendable. Today’s visit to the Kasubi Royal Tombs is part of that meaningful effort.

When influential figures like Spice choose Uganda, they do more than perform, they tell our story to the world, attract global attention, and open doors for tourism, culture, and investment.

This is the power of cultural exchange, positioning Uganda as a destination of choice. #ExploreUganda
