Comrades, there is a clear difference between fuel availability and fuel price. Globally, most countries are facing fuel price increases. Many at astronomical rates. However very few like Uganda have continued to maintain stable prices and have enough stock in country with more stock on the way.

At @UNOC_UG we are committed to sharing more details as we monitor the situation.

Namibia's government will temporarily reduce fuel levies by 50% for at least three months until the end of June in a bid to protect consumers from higher pump prices as the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran continues, the energy minister said on Friday. https://t.co/iW7xiXRn9E

At the Second Africa Climate Summit, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, pleased to preside over the signing of a landmark cooperation agreement between Africa's development finance institutions and commercial banks to advance the climate positive agenda launched at the inaugural summit in Nairobi two years ago.

Our financiers committed to mobilise up to $100 billion to power Africa’s green industrialisation driven by our continent’s abundant renewable energy. The partners included the African Export-Import Bank (AfreximBank), Africa50, Stanbic Bank Kenya, Equity Group Holdings, Kenya Commercial Bank Group, and Ecobank Transnational Inc.

Kenya will host the secretariats of both the Africa Green Industrialisation Initiative and the Accelerated Partnership for Renewables in Africa as we continue to champion Africa’s leadership in climate action and sustainable development.

[Tony Otoa @Comrade_Otoa]

Joined my sister @ImaniMulungi and brothers Derrick and Charlie on the morning show at @97fmRadiocity this morning to discuss oil and gas. What a wonderful conversation on how we are fairing as a country and the @UNOC_UG mandate in the energy sector.
At @UNOC_UG we are intentional about creating value for all Ugandans at all levels of the oil and gas value chain.

@Opiaiya @KCCAUG @KCCAED It is possible but this requires invested commitment from both private and public sector with clear inputs and roadmap. The benefits are both financial and non-financial with the latter more impactful. Keep your eyes on our neighbours..

@idringp We need them at the garden city- crested towers circle during pick time traffic. Do inform them that there is no dust and the flow of traffic is too slow we would learn a lot of moves….
