🚨UPDATE: "I will fight for the right of Muhoozi to speak his nonsense. But not with that office. I will fight for freedom of speech. But the office of CDF is an office belonging to the people of Uganda. It cannot relate authority. It is not an individual decision. That authority is supposed to work to protect every citizen of Uganda, and every person lawfully living in Uganda. So how does a leader of a political party get taken incommunicado, then post pictures? No." ~ UPC party president Jimmy Akena

Olandria sees you speculating about her relationship with Nic Vansteenberghe: “Why does it matter if me and Nic are together? Why are you so invested in people that don’t know you? That part creeps me out. I’m not living for the internet.”

Ugandans forget quickly. Ambassador (sorry American Citizen) Adonia Ayebare opened an account without proper authorization. Did @Thomas_Tayebwa and his appointments committee bring this question to him? What was his response? Do you guys see why we should have vetting done on live TV?

Did the Government take any punitive measures ? @SarahBireete, over to you!

[Dr. Bireete Sarah @SarahBireete]

Active diplomats are not supposed to acquire dual citizenship in countries where they are accredited. Did my friend Amb @adoniaayebare acquire dual citizenship while in active diplomatic service? How did he represent Uganda’s sovereignty with an inherent conflict of allegiance? How did he maintain the required neutrality for diplomatic work? @USEmbassyUganda ~ Price of coats of many colours: Four to wait longer for ministerial oaths https://t.co/qtDrapOOOX

The African continent doesn’t need more entrepreneurs. It’s full of them.

What it needs is a specific class of entrepreneurs called industrialists: business people who build value-adding firms in export-oriented job creating sectors, not rent capture.

This story shows Ugandans are very welcoming. They let immigrants settle in to the point that they feel like citizens. Sadly Ugandan law doesn't grant citizenship to the children born here to immigrants

[Karitas Karisimbi @KaritasKarisim2]

I would like to share a personal reflection on the ongoing conversations around citizenship, identity, and public service in Uganda. I was born and raised in Uganda. It is the country that shaped me, educated me, gave me opportunities, and allowed me to serve to the best of my ability. When my Ugandan passport was revoked years ago, it was one of the most difficult experiences of my life. It felt deeply personal and, at the time, heartbreaking. I was asked to choose between aspects of my identity that, to me, had never been in conflict. After much reflection, I decided that what mattered most was my ability to continue living, working, and contributing to the country I call home. I subsequently obtained a Rwandan passport and a work permit. While the process brought inconvenience and frustration, it never stopped me from continuing to work, build, contribute, and serve alongside fellow Ugandans. Though I am of Rwandan heritage, I have always considered myself Ugandan in every meaningful sense of the word, having lived here my entire life. That experience taught me an important lesson: service to one’s country is not measured solely by the passport one carries, but by the contribution one makes, the values one upholds, and the commitment one demonstrates to the people around them. As we debate recent appointments and questions of citizenship, I believe our focus should remain on competence, integrity, service, and the value individuals can bring to Uganda. Institutions responsible for appointments should be allowed to perform their duties, while the rest of us assess leaders by the impact they make.
Uganda’s story has always been one of diverse communities, cultures, and histories living alongside one another. Our identities are often more interconnected than we sometimes acknowledge. That diversity should be a source of strength rather than division. I also wish to say this respectfully: those who seek to inflame tensions or claim to speak for all Banyarwanda do not speak for me. I have never denied my heritage, nor have I ever stopped loving Uganda. The loss of a passport did not diminish my affection for this country or my desire to contribute to its future. We are a peaceful people. We are neighbours, colleagues, friends, and family members. The conversations we have today will shape the country our children inherit tomorrow. Let us therefore choose wisdom over anger, unity over division, and dialogue over suspicion. I love Uganda, and I remain grateful for all it has given me. I also remember a time when many people of Rwandan heritage living in Uganda felt unable to openly acknowledge that part of who they were. We have made significant progress since then. Let us not move backwards. Let us continue building a society where people are judged by their character, contribution, and commitment to the common good.
Peace, respect, and togetherness must always come first #peace #respect #love #understanding

i still don't understand how the issue of citizenship still plays a lot of people in this country

uganda does not have automatic citizenship by birth, also known as jus soli (birthright citizenship)

jus soli means that anyone born within the territory of a country automatically becomes a citizen of that country

this is the model used by the united states

in the us, whether the parents are visitors, students, tourists, conference attendees, or simply transitin' through the country, a child born on us soil generally acquires us citizenship at birth under the 14th amendment

this is why your ministers and big people take their wives to the us to give birth, those kiddos come back as us citizens

uganda, however, relies on citizenship by descent also known as jus sanguinis

under the 1995 constitution and the uganda citizenship and immigration control act, citizenship is generally traced through one's parents, grandparents, or ancestry rather than merely the place of birth

a child could be born in kasese today to congolese or south sudanese parents and that kiddo would not automatically be a ugandan citizen simply because they were born in uganda

unless the parents are already ugandan citizens, have acquired citizenship through naturalization or registration, or the child qualifies under another constitutional provision, birth on ugandan soil alone does not confer citizenship

that is why citizenship verification often requires establishin' a family connection to people who belonged to the indigenous communities present within uganda's borders as of february 1, 1926, or provin' citizenship through other constitutional and statutory pathways

simply being born in uganda does not automatically make someone a ugandan citizen

if it did, every child born in uganda to refugees, expatriates, tourists, students, diplomats, or temporary residents would automatically become a citizen

it is also important to note that possessin' a national id does not, by itself, conclusively determine citizenship

the authority to determine, grant, recognize, or revoke citizenship is established under the constitution and citizenship laws

nira's primary mandate is registration and identification

so while a national id is powerful evidence used in daily life for votin', employment, bankin', government services, and public transactions, it is not the final legal authority on citizenship status

that is why we've many instances where individuals possess national ids, vote in elections, apply for government jobs, and conduct official business, yet still face additional scrutiny when applyin' for a passport

a passport is the ultimate legal document that says you're truly a citizen, of course, with an exception where we now sell passports to foreign criminals

@FGoloobaMutebi It also shows how flippant academics can be.

[SGW🦋🐝 @witosg]

Muganga is someone who chooses what is convenient for him at a time. When he stood to benefit as a Rwandan he got citizenship, he got Canadian citizenship when it benefited him, now he claims Ugandan citizenship to become a minister. He has no loyalty. The law must be applied.

[Daudi Kabanda @DaudiKabanda]

Mr. Muganga Lawrence was not rejected by the committee for being a Munyarwanda, a narrative i see some people so deceptively selling. We have other leaders who are banyarwanda who were approved & have been approved in the past. Hon . Aisha Ssekindi and Dianah Mutasingwa were approved yet they are Banyarwanda but Ugandan citizens.

Muganga was not approved after he denied holding a Rwandan passport, but the Committee investigations confirmed he holds 3 passports: Ugandan, Canadian and Rwandan. Why was he denying it? Therefore, the claim that he was rejected because of being a munyarwanda is totally false, misleading & dangerous.

[Daily Monitor @DailyMonitor]

Appointments Committee rejects Dr Muganga over multiple citizenship. Dr Muganga allegedly failed to convince the Committee he would renounce citizenship of two other countries, Rwanda and Canada https://t.co/8GW0hGKvaM #MonitorUpdates
