Some patient attendants in Tara health centre III in Tara sub-county, Maracha east constituency in Maracha district have decried what is termed as indirect mistreatment of health service seekers by the health service providers in that facility before they are finally discharged.

Mrs Angudeyo Lillian who escorted a pregnant woman to deliver at the health facility said, some health workers are hostile towards patients and patient attendants.

She narrated that, each and every care taker (patient attendant) who escorts patients, especially pregnant women to deliver at Tara health centre are first subjected to compulsory peeling of Cassavas before they are given birth cards and discharged from the facility.

Teacher from Tara primary school Mrs Stella Asibazuyo narrated to us her nasty experience at Tara health centre III, which she said, when they were admitted for delivery, there were no mosquito nets, the doors and window glasses of the health centre are broken and she was optimistic that, their new born baby might be infected with malaria due to mosquito bite.

An expectant mother Mrs Beatrice Oyero from Odupiri village expressed her displeasure with attitude of health workers at Tara health centre III, which she says, take their time to attend to admitted patients.

However, Mrs Esther Munduru Rose Grace a midwife we found at the health centre, dismissed the allegation by patient attendants, by stating that, it’s neither compulsory nor a mistreatment for them to first peel cassavas before they are discharged from Tara health centre III.

She said, those patient attendants are just helping them, it is not a condition that everyone has to peel the Cassavas.

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...
