Over The Weekend, President Museveni Awards: Land Titles, Laptops, Shillings One Million each To The Best 50 Primary School Teachers in Uganda And He Warned Them Against Riots Over Pay While He Moves To Increase Their Salary.

Mr Yoweri Museveni has urged teachers in the country to work devotedly adding that God would reward the teachers who do their work devotedly.
He revealed that he and his counterparts benefitted from teachers in the country who were devoted in their services. He strongly cautioned teachers against the practice of pretending to teach when they are not committed to teaching and warned that God sees those who do not deliver as expected.
The President made the remarks at St. Lawrence College, London Campus in Maya, Wakiso District immediately he returned from Tanzania on Saturday. The teachers have been on a 3-day conference, the second of its kind, that ran under the theme ‘Quality Teachers Matter.’
He congratulated the teachers who are teaching very well in spite of the challenges they face and urged them to continue in their service of working well adding that things will be better. He described teaching as a passion and blessing from God.
Museveni presented awards to the 50 best performing teachers and also gave them a Shs.50 million cheque. The top 3 teachers in the group were each given a plot of land, a laptop and Shs.1,000,000/=.
The President told the teachers’ conference that following a court ruling that nullified the previous arrangement that enabled legislators to access benefits in their favour, they no longer have the power.
“Members of Parliament no longer have the power to determine and set their salaries. This follows a court ruling which nullified the previous arrangement that enabled the legislators to access benefits in their favour. The public service in Uganda will, in the end, get good salaries and this includes teachers,” he said.
The First Lady, Hon. Janet Museveni, who is Minister of Education and Sports, thanked the teachers for organizing the conference and announced a prize of a study trip for the top 3 teachers to Israel later this month.

Being asked to raise children you d produce is a divine assignment. It i incredible responsibility but also a for those who do not appreciate it. Beyond government enforcement, is accountability to God.
This is th important aspect in teaching.

A pioneer teacher in this region, his students included President Milton Obote, Archbishop Janani Luwum, Wilson Rutara and others.
“When there was insurgency in the North, I spoke to him severally on how we could restore peace and he was pivotal in our pacification efforts.” Museveni said. ” He also joined politics but what endeared him to me was his humility. I still celebrate his role in helping stabilise this region and the young people have a perfect role model in him".

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent.  It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu".  We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service.  If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Here is Why Our Utterances For Praying Jesus And God To Come Liberate Ugandans, May Be Misplaced. This Phrase is like inform of a Letter To Some Categorized Section Of Ugandans.

https://m.facebook.com/yusufosuta/photos/a.1896701010557789/2070383359856219/?type=3 OPEN LETTER TO NRM SUPPORTERS - NATIONAL ROBBERS MOVEMENT. .................................................................................. Last week of March, a friend told me to pray for Uganda.  I told him that he was an Idiot and we have prayed for too long and we are still hungry and sick and Jesus is not coming soon to liberate us. He then ignored the STUPID and sent me a picture we all now know.  It got me totally messed up.  This guy was telling me to pray then sends a picture of men bowing down in blood.  He might have meant guns but I blocked him because his utterances of praying for Uganda were misplaced. I unblocked him 3 weeks later and asked him about praying and assassinations.  His reply "eithrr prayers or guns or both". I hate violence with a passion.  So he is now blocked in like FOREVER. Do you feel safe?  Do not feel safe. Uganda regim...
