It’s now one month down the Road. I merit this transcendent accomplishment after all the diligent work I have been pouring in . Glory to God . 🙏 I’m @mextjapan scholar .
Uganda's economy expanded by 8.5% in the quarter ended December from 5.4% in the corresponding period a year earlier, helped by strong consumer demand and high activity in construction and other sectors, the finance ministry said. https://t.co/8OYMPJ1ezi
For 14 months, the Ugandan shilling has been appreciating.
Why has this happened? What role has the Bank of Uganda played? And what does it mean for the economy?

Family and friends, we thank you for standing with us in the tall and deep darkness. Your love, prayers, presence and messages gave us comfort; we thank you. Asante🙏🏾
This afternoon, 3 out 5 of us at home went on stage as the boys’ school marked 25yrs of incredible education impact. Luke and I, as real kings did the watching. I captured 10s of photos for each of these 3 and I am so proud of each of them!
@GODFREY_Kutesa The simple principle in foreign exchange markets is “ Buy and sell “ or “ Bid and ask “ which means that buy low and sell high to make a profit .
“If inflation is coming down, it doesn’t mean prices are falling.” -Governor Atingi-Ego
Governor explains the difference between price levels and the rate of change in response to a question on rising prices despite subdued inflation. Featuring matooke, of course!
@NewtonAllan6 That’s what defines a well-organized city with systems . I’ve lived in Tokyo—one of the most vibrant and densely populated cities in the world—yet most service shops close by 9 p.m. and don’t open until 8 a.m.
@Sonah007@TimKalyegira Just to add to Alex’s points. You can’t use a national debt metric here as a reference, whereas Japan has the highest debt-to-GDP ratio. It is mostly domestic, and the trade balance has been in surplus for decades, helping to counteract the negative effects of high debt.
The Board of Directors, Management, and Staff of Bank of Uganda heartily congratulate Mr. Michael Atingi-Ego upon his appointment as the Governor, Bank of Uganda, and Professor Augustus Nuwagaba upon his appointment as the Deputy Governor, Bank of Uganda.

@Ssenyonyiderick Derrick i want to disagree on the issue of population. For example the most populated city on earth Tokyo (45 million people ) is very clean . It’s about discipline of the masses !
