BMK Group whom Ministry of Health contracted to do the construction work of Oluvu Health Center IV left the residents of Maracha District in shock after its Engineers and other workers on 28-8-2022 ferried 25 bags of cements to be sold in an unknown market place.

It's said that, the Guys lied to site clerk and other Health Center officials by alleging, it's their boss (Contractor) who told them to sale 25 bags of cement to cater for their feeding and transport from Maracha to Kampala.

When we got the information and then rushed to the site, we didn't get any of their workers or representatives there.

Many of the local laborers raised the issue of their unpaid salary, asking who will pay their labors if the contractor BMK Group has vanished away.

The local watchman whom they recruited, also raised the same information, saying, he has not being paid for two months now.

The Resident District Commissioner Mr Ayikobua Festus in company of DISO Mr Surundu Samuel together with Police Officers from Maracha CPS condemned the act of the contractor who decided to run away without doing the work they were contracted for and worst enough, they ran without paying the labors of the local people, one of whom confirmed that, he has 680,000 Shs which he is demanding from the contractor.

The RDC has directed security and health center officials not to allow anyone take anything from the Site until Ministry makes any communication in regards to that project.

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...
