"Chairman, a country without reserves is not sovereign. The potential of this Bill to destabilize Uganda’s balance of payments is our primary concern as a central bank. For example, last financial year the overall balance of payment surplus was USD 1.5 billion. That’s how we were able to increase our reserve coverage by USD 1.5 billion. Today as we speak our reserves are close to USD 6 billion. Why? Because these inflows have been coming in. The moment you tamper with these inflows here, we risk running down our reserves, and that is economic disaster for a country.” Governor Atingi-Ego on the Protection of Sovereignty Bill 2026 in an appearance before Parliament today.
Dear Ugandans, if you truly love your country, raise your voice against this fake bill.
To those who have not yet read it and would like to understand why we oppose it, kindly DM me for a soft copy of the bill. Your voice matters.
If we remain silent, we risk speeding down a dangerous path toward oppression or even slavery
