Ministerial Briefing on Ebola Outbreak Situation in Africa, May 25 x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Regarding this Parliament, I have been patient before, but this term there will be no room for leaders who seek titles without helping the people they lead. I am directing NRM leaders to return to the parishes and ensure that existing government programmes are lifting people out of poverty. I do not want to hear excuses about poverty while solutions already exist. Ministers and government officials who fail in this responsibility will be held accountable. This is Kisanja no sleep . Enough is enough.

JUST IN: @MinofHealthUG has confirmed two new Ebola cases in the country, bringing the total number of confirmed cases to seven (7). Details 👇 #NBSUpdates

If you notice anyone with signs and symptoms consistent with #Ebola, immediately call the Ministry of Health toll free line on 0800-100-066 or send a free SMS to 6767. The public is advised to remain calm, vigilant and strictly observe preventive measures. #Uganda remains safe and the situation is under control. #MOHatWork | #FightEbolaUG2026

Following a high-level cross-border ministerial meeting convened in Kampala, health leaders from the DRC, Uganda and South Sudan, alongside partners, endorsed a shared commitment to a unified response built on one team, one plan, one budget, one implementation model. Because outbreaks do not respect borders, and neither should our response. 🔗 Read press release: ow.ly/yPz650Z3K93 #AfricaResponds #HealthSecurity @_AfricanUnion @WHO @UNFPA @UNICEF

Over the past days, I have witnessed extraordinary solidarity across our continent in response to the ongoing #EbolaOutbreak. From frontline health workers and Ministers of Health to regional institutions, partners, and communities, Africans are standing together with determination and unity to protect lives. This collective commitment gives me confidence that, working together, we can contain this outbreak. --- Ces derniers jours, j’ai été témoin d’une solidarité extraordinaire à travers tout notre continent face à l’épidémie d’Ebola qui touche actuellement notre continent. Des professionnels de santé en première ligne aux ministres de la santé, en passant par les institutions régionales, les partenaires et les communautés, les Africains font front commun avec détermination et unité pour protéger des vies. Cet engagement collectif me donne confiance dans le fait qu’en travaillant ensemble, nous pourrons maîtriser cette épidémie. #AfricaResponds @_AfricanUnion

10 African countries are considered at risk of the #EbolaOutbreak due to cross-border population movement and the need to strengthen surveillance and diagnostic capacities. In my interview with @FRANCE24English, I stressed the importance of preparedness, rapid detection, and regional coordination to prevent further spread. ---- Dix pays africains sont considérés comme exposés au risque d'épidémie d'Ebola en raison des mouvements transfrontaliers de population et de la nécessité de renforcer les capacités de surveillance et de diagnostic. Lors de mon entretien avec FRANCE24 English, j'ai souligné l'importance de la préparation, de la détection rapide et de la coordination régionale pour empêcher toute nouvelle propagation. 🎥 ow.ly/GYC850Z3AbX #HealthSecurity #AfricaResponds

The Director of Emergency Preparedness and Response at the @WHOAFRO Dr. Marie Roseline Belizaire, has urged ministers attending the high-level meeting on Cross-Border Coordination on the Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak in Kampala to sustain strong, continuous cross-border collaboration efforts. She emphasized that robust preparedness saves time, and in outbreaks, time saves lives. She further stressed the urgent need to strengthen cross-border surveillance systems, noting that response delays can have serious consequences. Dr. Belizaire underscored the critical role of local leadership in outbreak response and highlighted the importance of empowering border surveillance teams and ensuring real-time communication. She also noted that the outbreak is a clear reminder that diseases do not respect national borders, underscoring the need for sustained political commitment. She emphasized that cross-border collaboration is not optional but a fundamental pillar of effective disease outbreak control. Describing the meeting as an opportunity to move from agreements to concrete implementation, Dr. Belizaire called for cross-border collaboration to be institutionalized as a continuous practice. She encouraged participants to use the platform to strengthen cross-border operations and commended the extraordinary efforts of frontline health workers responding to the outbreak. #EbolaRDC #Outbreak #Uganda

Konka Mzee, it would be good to tell us the situations where exactly each of the tools is used: a pen, AK-47, and a BIble 😃 Otherwise, reeka tusingye abarezi until we finally walk perfectly 🫡

@atwijukye123 @baryamureeba You're a bad boy. You want to get Profesor on computer to design this flow chat 😃

@baryamureeba Prof, can you summarize this on a Ven diagram? It would would be interesting!

Due to public demand let me give you an example of network corruption.... The so-called King Censor Mulenga owns King Caesar University.. Mulenga appoints Hon. Chris Baryomunsi Chairperson University Council. Mulenga appoints Hon. Tayebwa chairperson of Board of Trustees at King Caesar University. Hon. Baryomunsi appoints Mulenga's wife (Dr. Basaza) Chairperson UCC and her sister (Dr Hibanka) boat member of NITA-U. Hon. Baryomunsi appoints Hon. Tayebwa's brother (Kibandama) Chairperson NITA-U. This is a corruption network. Someone may wonder how King Censor University acts as a centre of the corruption network... You can fill in dots for details. But I can tell you billions of government funds gets siphoned through such networks undetected. These kinds of networks are all over the place. You will see for example someone pushing for a budget increase for NITA-U in parliament or officials in a ministry fighting with the minister over control of projects in an authority like NITA-U? But it makes sense when you know of the existence of a corruption network....

A high-level Ministerial Meeting on cross-border coordination for the Ebola outbreak response is underway at Speke Resort Munyonyo, bringing together regional leaders and partners to strengthen collaboration, preparedness and response. The meeting is attended by Permanent Secretary Dr. @DianaAtwine, Africa CDC Director General Dr. @Dr_JeanKaseya, Ministers of Health from DRC and South Sudan, alongside partners working to develop a coordinated response strategy. Dr. Diana Atwine called for commitment, and transparency, emphasizing that “no one is safe until everyone is safe.” Dr. Jean Kaseya applauded H.E. @KagutaMuseveni for his swift leadership and Uganda’s rapid response efforts, while commending Dr. Atwine for steering the national response. He stressed that this outbreak response “will be led by Africa, for Africa, and by Africans.” The Minister of Health from DRC, Dr. Roger Samuel Kamba noted that outbreaks do not respect borders, highlighting the need for coordinated measures to protect communities. The Minister of Health from South Sudan, Hon. Luke Thompson appreciated the timely convening of the meeting, noting that regional strength lies in unity and readiness. He emphasized that community engagement and public trust remain central to an effective response. A joint communique will be developed at the end of the meeting. #MOHatWork | #FightEbolaUG26

Uganda confirms three new Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) cases, bringing the total confirmed cases to five. The new cases include a driver, a health worker, and a Congolese woman linked to known contacts under follow-up. The Ministry of Health says all contacts have been identified and are being closely monitored as response teams intensify surveillance, contact tracing, and public awareness efforts. The public is urged to remain calm, vigilant, and report any suspected symptoms to the nearest health facility immediately. @kasujja @MinofHealthUG @SabiitiwWilber @brucekirenga @winterzie @JaneRuth_Aceng @olaro_charles @Lung_Institute #EbolaAwareness @GCICUganda @nbstv @ntvuganda @

@norbertmao @newvisionwire Omusajja wasooma sebo Ladit the Abductive coder 🫡

This is a low brow copycat attempt to recycle something I said long ago when the @newvisionwire interviewed me about Betty Nambooze’s “Bad DP” campaign to discredit the party leadership. I answered that her ‘chances of leading DP is as good as her chances of becoming Miss Uganda’. But original thinking is not for everyone. Most people stop at inductive and deductive reasoning but some of us venture beyond and go into abductive reasoning (that is the ability to see what lies in the empty spaces between dots). That is why several weeks ago I was the only one able of see the former Speaker as an “outgoing” Speaker. No amount of deductive and inductive reasoning could lead to that conclusion.
