Over 130 ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) regional coordinators have each been given a computer as a smartphone by the Office of the NRM national chairman (ONC) to enable them execute their new roles which among others, include monitoring of public service delivery at the local government level.
Handing over the gadgets to the coordinators at the ONC offices in Kyambogo on Friday, the presidential advisor on political affairs who doubles as the head of ONC office, Ms Uzeiye Namyalo urged the coordinators to use the gadgets to ensure timely submission of reports on the state of public services delivery in their respective local governments.
 
According to her, the appliances are part of the NRM party digitalization process to ease communications and all other party activities.
“Your role is to monitor government programmes and service delivery at the local government. The president thought it will be important to give you these gadgets (Computers and Phones) for a good working environment,” Ms Namyalo said.


She added: “These laptops and phones are not for sale; use them in the compilation and filing of your monthly reports on the status of service delivery at local government. You must also do research, therefore, these gadgets will be very helpful.”

The president through his ONC office has appointed the coordinators to work alongside the CAOs and RDCs in the monitoring of public service delivery at the local government levels to contain growing corruption and other illegalities associated with the administration units at the districts.
During the 37 NRM anniversary in celebrations in Kakumiro District last month, Mr Museveni who has been in power since 1986, warned district service commissions against corruption, sale of public jobs and sexual exploitation in exchange for public service jobs.

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 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...
