By taking on an active role in the #UgandaParliamentExhibition, activist Agather Atuhaire 'could' have gotten herself blacklisted from appearing on NBS TV, say well placed sources at Naguru. We don't know how long the 'ban' will last. @BbegMedia bbegmedia.com/2024/04/26/sou…

Many university students are calling me for interviews for their dissertation and coursework research on the X Exhibitions. It’s encouraging. But, on the other hand, I keep asking myself: ‘What does this research add to our society?’ Much of it either ends up unread on dusty…
7,772 cases of Robberies were reported to @PoliceUg countrywide in 2023. Cases of Robberies where lethal weapons were not used were 4,745 cases while cases of Aggravated Robberies where lethal weapons like firearms, knives hammer and machetes were used were 3,027 cases.
There is no censorship yet on online media. They are trying to censor it and failing. We tried, with exhibitions, to bring information to the public - Agather Atuhaire, Journalist #MorningAtNTV #NTVNews
Exhibitions involve the entire citizenry. We always do preliminary research and ask people to give more information. People praise us for doing a good job but those in government offices are telling us that we have just scratched the surface - Agather Atuhaire, Journalist…
The government is dropping agencies, not because of their performance, but because of political interests - Agather Atuhaire, Journalist #MorningAtNTV #NTVNews
Most of these government agencies were total duplicates that everyone could see. I was surprised some agencies like those in the electricity sector were not merged. We have an electricity sector that has about 5 or 6 agencies - Agather Atuhaire, Journalist #MorningAtNTV #NTVNews
It has been, for a very long time, very clear that we have so many government agencies that are not necessary. I think these agencies were formed the same way political offices are formed. To create jobs for some people - Agather Atuhaire, Journalist #MorningAtNTV #NTVNews
I will be happy to use this opportunity to ask President Museveni how on one hand he was concerned that several agencies are “duplicating roles and being a burden to the treasury”, while on the other starting other illegal outfits and redundant (tempted to say ridiculous but I…

@AgoraCFR Charity or philanthropy is not a substitute to the fight against corruption ~ Xavier Ejoyi, Action Aid
If there is any motivation in the fight against corruption, it should be the level of abject poverty that many Ugandans have been reduced to-Xavier Ejoyi @actionaiduganda Country Director. @AgoraCFR @xmusema
@AgoraCFR As civil society organizations (CSOs) embedded within the ecological system, we face heightened vulnerability to corruption. How can we effectively respond in such instances? ~ Xavier Ejoyi @actionaiduganda

UGANDA COFFEE TRAGEDY by Robert Kabushenga On Monday, during a cabinet meeting it was proposed to give @TugumeNelsonO & his @coffeeinvestug another US$36m. Last year they got US$10m which they shared among themselves. @MatiaK5, the political head of @mofpedU objected, arguing…
@KakwenzaRukira Sometimes you painfully meet such grassing, and your former unserious student that was choking on retakes but connected is somewhere in a big office. You get to know why so much is going wrong
@AgoraCFR @MaleMabiriziHKK It is great when everyone adds what they can do - multiple fronts
The 58% Is an inaccurate re-presentation by New Vision. Yes the Taxes are extremely high, but the writer of this article got it wrong @AgoraCFR . The amendements don't have additional PAYE. Other tax heads yes, but not PAYE. They need to re-call this headline.
@AgoraCFR That’s good. Until everyone gets personally affected and adequately pained to stop keeping quiet

@AgoraCFR @mtnug @Airtel_Ug But seriously Ugandans. We need actual legislation on the direction of how we are billed for data. Internet access is soon hitting the level of fuel in terms of being a business enabler. This data here is very expensive and even then, there is undoubtedly cheating on back end.
@AgoraCFR @BradleyCarl256 @mtnug @Airtel_Ug @UCC_Official I think the matter should not just be limited to how it depletes, but the cost of it all, compared to our neighbours in the EAC, data in Uganda is almost unaffordable
