Nakaseke South MP, Hon Ssemakula Donates Shillings 2 Million To Ministry Of Health To Aid The Fight Against Covid-19.

Hon Paulsen Luttamaguzi Ssemakula has written to the Speaker of Parliament instructing her to deduct some money off his monthly salary to aid efforts against Coronavirus.

While appearing on a TV show over the weekend, Luttamaguzi said that it is time for everyone to stop playing politics and take measures that can genuinely fight the spread of the virus.

Luttamaguzi assured the public that if legislators were sensitive, they would surrender part of their monthly salaries to the Ministry of Health.

In fulfilment of his pledge, Luttamaguzi has thus written to the Speaker of Parliament in a letter dated March 24 calling for a deduction of Shs 2m from his monthly salary.

“This letter comes to appreciate you for your work in Uganda’s efforts to effectively combat the Corona Virus. Most importantly though, I write to authorize your office to make a deduction of Shs 2m from my monthly salary to support victims of the above mentioned pandemic and to support the Ministry of Health to greatly curtail the spread of the virus,” Luttamaguzi said.

He added that, “The deductions should be made starting in the month of April 2020 until the deadline given by the government.”

In addition, Luttamaguzi requested that the Speaker appeals to other leaders and Legislators to support this national cause in the same way that he has done.

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...

Parliament Urges Government to Provide Shs 4 Billion to Media Houses to Run Awareness Campaign on Tourism in Uganda.

Parliament also urged Gov’t to provide additional Shs4Bn to UTB to engage international and national media houses in production of positive media stories for improved destination image, following reports of drop in number of tourists from US, Europe and China visiting Uganda. "The National Development Plan targeted to cumulatively attract 281,760 International Tourist arrivals from US, Europe & China but only 67,252 arrivals were registered by the end of the first half of FY 2023/24. The U.S, Europe & China were key target source for leisure tourist who stay longer than business tourists. However, statistics show that international arrivals from the aforementioned areas have continue to drop. The UTB requires Shs4Bn to engage international & national media houses in production of positive tourism stories to improve destination perception in light of recent controversies that shade the destination in a bad light. However, this has remained unfunded,” said La...
