📌 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐁𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠: A national budget is more than numbers on paper, it is an investment in people, progress, and prosperity.
It is the roads that connect communities, the markets that empower farmers and traders, the healthcare that saves lives, and the opportunities that equip our youth with skills to thrive.
Join the nation today for the FY 2026/27 Budget Reading at Kololo Independence Grounds from 2:00 PM and be part of Uganda’s journey toward sustainable growth and shared prosperity. #KnowYourBudget26 #OpenGovUg
More than 200 U.S. CDC-trained Ugandan experts are supporting the Ministry of Health’s Ebola response, among them Joseph Ojwang, who trained healthcare workers at Entebbe International Airport. For decades, America has worked with Uganda and the world to stop the spread of infectious diseases at the source, highlighting American leadership in action. #FightEbolaUG26 #Freedom250

Yesterday I visited Mulago National Referral Hospital in Kampala, where a separate unit has been prepared to treat #Ebola patients. I'm glad for the opportunity to meet with health workers in charge and thank them for their dedication. I am very happy with all the work invested in preparedness and readiness that I have witnessed.
I commend the Government of #Uganda for the work being done to control Ebola and provide care for those affected. Uganda’s leadership has been central to the response, and @WHO remains committed to supporting national efforts to stop transmission, save lives and protect communities.
Mwebale nnyo.
This morning, the Minister for Foreign Affairs of the United Arab Emirates, H.E. Sheikh Shakhboot Bin Nahyan Al Nahyan, presided over the groundbreaking ceremony for the Emirates Specialty Hospital in Entebbe.
This 100-bed hospital will cater for specialized care in ear, nose and throat (ENT), ophthalmology (eye care), maxillofacial surgeries, and other specialized head surgeries. The facility is expected to be completed and handed over by May 2027. This comes as a special gift from the UAE Government through H.E. @KagutaMuseveni and will handle referrals from across Africa.
Today, seven East African Community states make history by reading their national budgets simultaneously. Beyond the parliamentary speeches, these trillions in shillings, francs, and dollars will directly impact your kiosk, boda, or startup. From Mombasa to Kigali, we track how this unified fiscal move shapes one massive regional market.
Meanwhile, what is your primary concern regarding the national budget for the upcoming financial year?

OG Anunoby (33 PTS, 10–15 FGM) and the Knicks have a history of pulling off come-from-behind wins.

As we angrily mourn the gruesome murder of Sydney, this story of an innocent 21yr old young man Timothy Ssemugenyi who was killed in a very similar manner in 2021 touched me so much but unlike in Sydney's case where @PoliceUg seems to be doing everything to arrest the murderers, the killers of Timothy were arrested and later released by Kabalagala Police after money exchanged hands.
This footage by @ntvuganda reveals how the parents of the poor boy were bitter for not getting justice to the extent that Police extorted money from them to secure the CCTV footage, such is our country!
The @PoliceUg should tell us how they ended the investigations into the murder of Timothy Ssemugenyi which seemed to have been a well planned motive 5yrs down the road even when the murders were known, arrested and released.😢
