The Uganda Civil Aviation Authority (UCAA) has acquired four Kayoola E-Coaches and one Kayoola EVS from Kiira Motors Corporation, becoming the first institution in Uganda and across Africa to operate a fully electric fleet manufactured on the continent. The Kayoola E-Coach recently proved its reliability during the 13,000km “Pearl to the Cape” expedition, positioning Uganda at the forefront of Africa’s clean mobility transition. This milestone reflects Uganda’s growing industrial strength and sends a clear signal: the country is confidently shaping the future of sustainable transport. @UgandaCAA @UG_Airlines @KiiraMotors

MPs do not share in this pain, so there will be less debate about it in Parliament- Hon Ibrahim Ssemujju Nganda , MP Kira Municipality #MorningAtNTV

We’re now borrowing for “money lenders” in Kenya & local banks with the worst possible payment terms. Looks like our goose is cooked!

According to @AndrewMwenda, the Speaker of @Parliament_Ug has the entire @JudiciaryUG in her grip & the chance of winning a court case against her is ZERO. Mwenda say she employs children of judicial officers - in parliament - which compromises judges. #UgandaJudiciaryExhibition
