What a fabulous break in Fort Portal filled with hikes and lake swims, birdsong and forests. Super stopovers at Greena, Mityana, Heritage Ecotourism, Kyenjojo and stunning dinner at @Kyaningalodge a short walk from the fabulous Crater Lake House. #ExploreUganda never disappoints

Congratulations, @smuhoza

Here’s an Ambassador who’s understood her assignment! Juju is one of one!

On behalf of the Parliament of Uganda, I extend our warmest congratulations to His Majesty, Kabaka, Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II, on the occasion of his 71st birthday. May your enduring leadership continue to inspire unity, cultural pride, and prosperity within the Buganda Kingdom and across the people of Uganda. Long live the King! @cpmayiga

This evening, on the fourth day of the ongoing retreat in Kyankwanzi, I addressed the newly elected NRM Members of Parliament on the budget priorities anchored in the NDP IV logic of full monetisation of our economy. These include wealth creation through PDM and Emyooga, value addition in agriculture, tourism and minerals (including oil and gas), the knowledge economy and STI, strategic infrastructure such as the railways and EACOP, reducing the cost of credit, strengthening revenue generation, cost-effective social services, support to the creative industry and AFCON preparations, as well as investment in the Greater Kampala Metropolitan Area. I am glad that the Members continue to benefit from presentations by experts from different disciplines as we build a shared understanding of these priorities.

Fellow Ugandans, especially the Bazzukulu, following a scientific assessment by our CBRN team, I have written to Matongo Wood Works Company confirming that traditional wooden food containers made from omunyama (mahogany) and omusisa (albizia) are safe and durable. I have directed support for this initiative so that we free ourselves from the colonial habit of relying on fragile and unsafe ebyatika (the breakables). Our indigenous knowledge systems served our people well for generations. It is time to consciously revive and promote them as part of building a self-reliant and modern Ugandan economy.

I welcomed His Excellency Majid Saffar, the Iranian Ambassador to Uganda, who called on me this afternoon in Kyankwanzi. We discussed issues of mutual interest and cooperation between Uganda and Iran.

Check out the Ugandan team behind this great innovation 🇺🇬 While the world watches Falcon 9 launch ClimCam to the ISS, let’s shine light on our own people who made it happen. Four brilliant Ugandan engineers — Gerald Kisangala (Soroti University), Zaina Kalyankolo (Mbarara University of Science and Technology), Rosemary Nalwanga (embedded systems specialist), and Christopher Ongom Adoko (Kyambogo University) — went through intensive training in Egypt and helped design and build this AI-powered climate camera. #STIWorksUg

Arriving in Kibale to mediate a ceasefire between the different Chimpanzee factions. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Yesterday, I delivered the keynote address at the MPs’ retreat at the National Leadership Institute, Kyankwanzi, reflecting on the role of servant leadership in national transformation.

〽️TRANSFORMATION From hard to reach… to fully open! The Muyembe–Nakapiripirit Road [92km] has advanced in construction, unlocking access across Karamoja region and in particular to the Pian Upe Wildlife Reserve. In the earlier days, reaching this wildlife reserve was a hurdle, even for wildlife! It’s now a tourism gateway, bringing Uganda’s cheetah🐆 closer to the world and communities closer to opportunity. ✊🏽A demonstration of @GovUganda policy direction; prioritising infrastructure as a catalyst for connectivity, economic transformation and national competitiveness.

UWA received 3 Land Cruisers today from the Greater Virunga Transboundary Collaboration to strengthen One Health surveillance in protected areas. The vehicles will support wildlife health monitoring, disease surveillance & community engagement. #OneHealth #Conservation

WATCH: Scientists at the Mbarara Zonal Agricultural Research and Development Institute are studying the Jianzhou big-eared goat, a Chinese breed introduced through the FAO–China South–South Cooperation Project. Andrew Wange Bugyenyi, a senior research officer and Animal Resources Research Program leader at MBAZARDI, says the goats show strong potential to boost meat production. The team plans to crossbreed them with local breeds to expand herds and improve productivity. #MonitorUpdates 📹: Cosline Nakahiira

Earlier today, The @BugandaKingdom_ officially launched the Kabaka’s Birthday Run. The event was coupled with recognition of the various partners and sponsors of this year’s edition of the run. In his speech, the Chief Guest and Katikiro of Buganda, @cpmayiga mentioned of the importance to create awareness among members of corporate bodies, emphasizing vigilance to protect members from contracting HIV. He equally noted that married couples should remain faithful to their partners. All these efforts made towards curbing the spread of HIV/AIDS. We are honored to be partners in this noble cause and look forward to more partnerships as this. Gakyali Mabaga! Wangala Ssaabasajja Kabaka! #KabakaBirthdayRun2026

Had a wonderful time today engaging with our shareholders at the @mtnug FY2025 Annual General Meeting. It was a strong reminder of what focused execution and a committed team can achieve. Over the past year, we have made meaningful strides, and today’s discussions reinforced our direction for the future. It was especially valuable to receive feedback on how we can continue strengthening the business and creating long-term value for all stakeholders. Thank you to our board, team, and customers for your continued support. We move forward with clarity and confidence.
