Outdated ... We just need good teachers and laboratories in all schools. Ugandans have problems charging phones and so how will they charge laptops or keep them safely in rural areas? More than 50% would be stolen in the first year. Do research and propose practical solutions.

That Ministry of Health suggestion that medical interns should work for free, or that medicine should be extended to 6 years specifically to make internship unpaid without any consideration, made me feel so much pain in my heart. I always ask myself: why do fellow doctors always wish the worst for their colleagues? You literally know what it means to be an intern, working 36 hours nonstop. We have seen interns fall into severe depression due to stress. You know that medical internship is more stressful than military training. I understand the public saying anything, they don’t know, but you know how much pain one goes through. In medical school, fellow doctors will want to fail you and see you repeat a year, yet medicine is already 5 years and very stressful. Still, they find so much happiness in seeing others suffer, as long as you are a colleague. I am deeply disappointed in you, lecturers who know what 5 years of medicine means, yet still fail medical students without serious cause, often out of malice. Research supervisors who know that most master’s programs are 2 years and part-time, while medical programs are 3+ years full-time, yet still try to make others repeat, not because they are incapable, but out of spite. You disappear when students need you most to complete their research. During my internship, we had no weekends, no public holidays, and had to do a minimum of two night shifts every week. Shifts were 36 hours. For example, you start Monday morning, do ward rounds with seniors until about 3:00 PM. After that, interns remain to implement everything discussed. Those on night duty continue until morning without sleep, managing a full ward with very limited staff. By morning, seniors do not allow you to leave until you join the next ward round. So after 24+ hours, you continue working the entire day and only leave in the evening, just to rest briefly and start again the next day. Most times, the following day you are in clinic, seeing so many patients that your brain feels overwhelmed. I remember once falling asleep in front of a patient because I was extremely exhausted, every part of me felt drained. Now imagine doing all this and still having to worry about finding food. I had a business that was doing well, but the moment I started internship, it collapsed completely. There is simply no way to earn while doing internship. We used to run clinics seeing over 200 patients with only two interns. It sounds impossible, but it is real. A regional referral hospital can serve up to 20 districts. In a hypertensive clinic, 200 patients is actually on the lower side. On such days, we would start at 7 AM and finish at night without eating. Patients would get frustrated, but we were doing everything humanly possible. We were four interns in internal medicine. When two were running clinic, the other two were managing a full ward alone, and you know they were suffering. We used to receive a stipend of 750,000 UGX per month from the government. It was small, but at least we could pay rent (around 200k) and afford some food and transport. In some districts, even finding accommodation is difficult. In my life as a doctor, the people who have shown me the harshest side of this profession have been fellow doctors. You see them in leadership and think they will advocate for you, but they don’t. My recommendation to medical students, well-wishers, and UMA: meaningful change will likely come from Parliament or the President. Unfortunately, doctors in leadership often make things worse. The first time interns received improved pay was when the late Hon. Jacob Oulanyah heard their concerns, along with the President. However, it did not last because some doctors reportedly advised that the funds were being wasted. @Thomas_Tayebwa @AnitahAmong @MinofHealthUG @DianaAtwine

If Iran actually goes down that route, then they’re clearly biting more than they can chew The Strait of Hormuz already carries about 20% of global oil supply, so even current tensions are shaking the entire world economy . Now imagine adding global internet disruption into that mix… that’s not just escalation, that’s inviting a massive global response You don’t threaten world powers, global trade, and digital infrastructure all at once and expect it to end well At some point, strategy has to replace bravado Because if this crosses that line… the consequences won’t just be regional, they’ll be overwhelming Is this strength or just reckless escalation?

it's about 70k-100k (max) from kampala to kigali by bus.. so prep 200k for transport you can do an airbnb for 2 nights at 200k you can checkout a few places for less than 200k roughly a budget of 500k - 700k is enough …. it's about 90k to 150k (max) from kampala to nairobi by bus, so prep 300k for transport airbnbs are cheaper in nairobi than anywhere else in east africa you can get a decent airbnb in westlands for 2 nights at 200k or less shop in carrefour supermarkets.. visit uhuru park, kicc, westgate mall, etc a budget of 700k to 1m is enough for nairobi ….. you can even go to kisumu which is nearer.. or nakuru.. you can go to arusha, or mwanza.. travelin' within east africa, by road, is not expensive as we're often meant to believe and then we fear to travel …. for kenya and tanzania you need a yellow fever card, for rwanda you don't

This killing is the most frequent on Ugandan roads. You can get tens of such cases in the last 12 months if you count. The problem is not sugar cane trucks. The problem is in whatever allows people to keep stationary vehicles with mechanical problems occupying full lanes for hours and hours, including at night. Another bigger problem is why no one acts to stop this for once for all. Is any one responsible?

Sugarcane trucks on that stretch of road are not suddenly becoming death traps. They have always been death traps. This is not a new crisis; it is a long‑ignored one. In 2009, I personally went—together with the then Assistant Commissioner for Safety and Standards, the late Eng. Sabiiti—to meet the senior management of both Kakira Sugar Works and SCOUL. We confronted this exact hazard. At that time, there were only about three factories, and to their credit, they acted. They reined in the chaos because they were pushed to do so. Today, the same industry pretend to be shocked by a problem they have allowed to fester right under their noses. The sugar companies in that region must stop hiding behind out growers and take responsibility. They may not own these trucks and tractors, but they absolutely control the environment in which they operate. And right now, that ecosystem is lawless. If the manufacturers set non‑negotiable conditions—no truck or tractor enters the supply chain unless it is roadworthy—the outgrowers will comply. But as long as the factories keep accepting anything with four tires and a platform to dump cane (no headlamps, no reflectors for night visibility), the individual owners will continue hiring the cheapest, most dangerous scrap they can find. This crash is not accidental. It is the predictable result of an industry that refuses to enforce standards it knows are necessary.

@ekiggundu @BbegMedia these things of law confuse us lay persons. if the man is a foreigner and cannot own a private mailo property, why is he given 85% of the property? if registration of property in one's names is not proof of total ownership, what else is?

@SteffGariho This is in good faith. There are places where these things are overpriced for no justification. I realised that buying them raw and in bulky is cheaper. I think this is only possible in big markets like Kalerwe if you are in Kampala.
