@kyambogou @NECUPDF You halls are like pigsties and you are fixing what?

Today, we have signed an MoU with National Enterprise Corporation (NEC) @NECUPDF to rehabilitate & upgrade 1.318km of internal roads to bituminous standard.

🎥There’s a clear definition for every professional title we use and “Doctor” should be no exception. 📌 A Doctor is a graduate who has successfully completed a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBChB) or an equivalent program (including veterinary medicine) and has been awarded the degree by a recognized university not by the Ministry of Health. ➡️ A Medical Officer, on the other hand, is a doctor who has completed the mandatory internship training. ✴️The current confusion around these titles stems from systemic failures. The Ministry of Health is responsible for internship placement, yet many of the challenges arise from gaps in the accreditation of medical schools a process managed by the Ministry of Education. This disconnect has created unnecessary bottlenecks. 🔥 Dr. Jane Ruth Aceng rightly pointed out that some individuals are still referred to as “doctors” even after failing their internship. 🚫 However, failing internship does not necessarily mean the person lacks medical knowledge. Interns can fail for reasons unrelated to clinical competence e.g poor discipline, weak interpersonal skills, lack of punctuality, or failure to attend duties. These are professional conduct issues, not gaps in medical training. ⛔️That said, the Ministry of Health must take responsibility for its own shortcomings. ➡️The discontinuation of the centralized internship orientation workshop which used to prepare interns before deployment is a serious lapse in institutional support. 📌Furthermore, if the concern is merely the title “Doctor,” then we must ask: how different are fresh intern doctors from many senior officials at the Ministry of Health who have not practiced clinical medicine for years? Their clinical skills have naturally depreciated over time. 🎥 If my own mother fell seriously ill, I would not seek treatment from most of these long-term Ministry officials and I believe many Ugandans feel the same. Yet we continue to address them as “doctors.” 📌The Ministry of Health needs to improve stakeholder engagement and bring greater clarity, fairness, and professionalism to how medical titles and career progression are managed. ➡️At the heart of this debate is not just titles it is government efficiency failure. We must do better. @pwatchug @parliament_Ug @JoelSsenyonyi @Educ_SportsUg @MinofHealthUG @ShamimNambassa @AnesthesiaUg @MakCHS_SOM @ASOU_Official @NalukwagoJudith @AnitahAmong @JanetMuseveni @rkalyes1

@rkalyes1 So Lawyers will also graduate after LDC? And Engineers will graduate after they are licensed by UIPE? @Parliament_Ug ? This doesn't make sense. Don't change things that have been in place for millennia.

🔥 This is very serious!

@ekiggundu @BbegMedia The name Bazibu!!!!

If there is one person Agnes Nandutu regrets meeting, it is her personal assistant, Evelyn Hilda Bazibu. Bazibu's testimony placed her boss at the 'scene of crime' and, like a final nail in the coffin, sealed her fate. Here it is. @BbegMedia bbegmedia.com/heres-the-test…

This morning, Dr. Ramathan Ggoobi, the Permanent Secretary and Secretary to the Treasury, Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development delivered a thought-provoking public lecture on health financing in Uganda, at Makerere University.

@Lira_RRH Congratulations Dr Odur

Lira Regional Referral Hospital Secures UGX 4.8 Billion additional wage for Staff Recruitment in FY 26/27 Lira Regional Referral Hospital has secured an additional UGX 4.8 billion to facilitate the recruitment of over 100 new staff in the 2026/2027 financial year. The Hospital Director, Dr. Andrew Odur, made the announcement on Wednesday, 8th April 2026, during the maiden State of the Hospital Address at the 156th sitting of the LRR Hospital Parliament, held in the administration block boardroom. Dr. Odur noted that the funds will support the recruitment of a wide range of health professionals, including consultants, associate consultants, nurses, midwives, allied health workers and common cadres. This support is expected to significantly boost staffing levels from the current 320 to nearly 420 personnel. “In the next financial year, we are going to recruit more than 100 staff following the allocation of an additional UGX 4.8 billion for recruitment,” Dr. Odur stated. He further outlined key unfunded priorities for the hospital remain expanding ward space through a new ward complex, reclamation of 10.4 acres of encroached hospital land, completion of the hospital fencing, and construction of a big store to safely keep our medicines and other health supplies. On specialized healthcare services, Dr. Odur revealed that the hospital is strengthening capacity to offer advanced care in areas such as fertility treatment, neonatology, cardiology, neurotrauma, pediatric surgery, endoscopy and minimal access surgery. Ongoing projects set for completion before the end of the current financial year include the extension of the private wing, renovation of the eye department and remodeling, paving of part of Police Road, equipping of the theatre, and construction of canopies along major walkways within the hospital. Reflecting on the past year, Dr. Odur highlighted several achievements, including the construction of a fully-fledged satellite laboratory now internationally accredited by SANAS, expansion of a 45-bed gynecology ward, operationalization of the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and the successful performance of 174 head surgeries of accident and stroke patients under neurotrauma program However, he raised concern over the high disease burden recorded, including 7,592 malaria cases, 1,742 urinary tract infections, and 1,038 sickle cell disease cases. In his closing remarks, the Speaker of the Hospital Parliament, Dr. Bosco Omongo, urged hospital leadership to engage the Ministries of Health and Finance to secure additional funding to support the hospital’s upgrade, especially if Lira City is to host the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in 2027. Dr. Omongo also emphasized the urgent need for the construction of a city mortuary, noting that the current facility at the hospital is overwhelmed, with a capacity of only 12 bodies at a time. @DrOdur73456 @MinofHealthUG @JaneRuth_Aceng @Voiceoflangofm @977unityfm @943qfmlira

@KeEquityBank can you check your franchise in Uganda? @BOU_Official please help and check these banks

@peterabwooli @UgEquityBank is just like that. Useless

Heartbroken for the mother I saw at @UgEquityBank Hoima Branch today. She sat from 1 PM to 4 PM with a sick, crying infant. Only ONE attendant was serving dozens of people. The system is broken. ​When she finally approached the Operations Manager’s office at 4pm for help, she was told to leave because the manager "couldn't help much." Since when is a sick child not a priority for quick service? ​To make matters worse, an epileptic customer collapsed in the hall during the chaos. @UgEquityBank, you need to address staffing levels and train your managers in crisis empathy immediately. This is unacceptable. No one was there to assist the mother on how to fill the form, as you can see, on expected turnover, the mother wrote a date instead. Yes, the mother walked away hours later without service. @KeEquityBank @UgEquityBank

@DrOribaDan @TumukundeTT Some allegations are really disgusting especially if they come from highly educated people. I could if were a P7 dropout. In this Google and AI era?

@DathanMD @TumukundeTT You are normally very accomodative. By the time you talk like this... this has got you off the green line. I totally agree with you Senior.

Effective May 25, Ghana🇬🇭 becomes a "free visa regime for all Africans", President John Dramani Mahama declares. If implemented, Ghana will become the fifth African country to offer this to travellers from the rest of the continent alongside Rwanda, The Gambia, Seychelles and Benin. "Ghana seeks to consolidate its credentials as the cradle of Pan-Africanism even as it expects a major boost in tourism and intra-African trade by this groundbreaking reform," a statement from Ghana's Foreign Minister Sam Ablakwa reads in part. A fully visa-free Africa does NOT yet exist, many Africans still need visas to travel within the continent. Over 50% of African countries still require visas for most other African nationals. Guinea Bissau, Mauritania, Nigeria, and Somalia switched from broad visa-on-arrival policies to requiring a visa ahead of travel.
