Congratulations Noble Peter Ogwang, Hamson Obua, Nobert Mao and Akiro Beatrice Akello Upon New Appointment as Ministers.

I treasure this ambient time to congratulate DP Party Chairman Hon Nobert Mao upon his appointment as the Minister of Justice and Constitutional Affairs, Hon Hamson Obua on his appointment as the Goveenment chip whip, Hon Akello Beatrice Akori, Woman MP for Agago District upon her appointment as the State Minister for Economic Monitoring in office of the President and Hon Peter Ogwang, MP for Ngariam County in Katakwi District upon his appointment as the State Minister for Education and Sports.

I would like to share an opinion about the appointment of Hon Nobert Mao, which has come as a surprise to some people.

Much as many of the opposition fraternity in Uganda will heckle at noble Hon Nobert Mao as someone who has betrayed DP party and the entire Opposition fraternity in Uganda, i take that as a positive move though it may leave the integrity of Mao dented, as some people will perceive.

I strongly believe in intellectual Hon Nobert Mao, whom i love and admire, will not let us down as Ugandans.

I believe in him as a personality of high moral esteem, character and experience as a Lawyer, a former MP to steer our Country in the right sense of direction.

To Hon Peter Ogwang, congratulations for this reshuffle from State Minister for Economic Monitoring to State Minister for Education and Sports.

As a hardworking Mp, a Minister, i am much delighted he will not leave any stone unturned in the sector of Education.

Education is a sector that draws a flying direction as to where a Country shall be in the future.

I trust in you Hon Ogwang, as a noble man.

Congratulation, congratulation and congratulation to all of you.

Thanks.

Yours, Osuta Yusuf.

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...

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...
