@M_Kananura The magnitude of dent on the car points to some extreme impact - which can only be one way, from the automobile

This morning, we discussed a 22 year old man with progressive difficulty in breathing and long-standing steatorhea since age of 3 months. His BMI is 15.2 . He is being further evaluated for Cystic fibrosis among other possibilities. @InternalmedMak @MulagoReferral @MakCHS_SOM @Lung_Institute @MakerereCHS @Makerere @MJAPUg

Is that an extra toe?

@lulanzeashirafu @jamesonen It’s pleasing to see this taken up across the country Orderliness is a good thing. Even the owners of demolished stalls will appreciate

KCCA has torn down food vendors' kiosks in Old Kampala. Much as it is painful, but it is necessary if we want a new look for the city. Change is hard and painful when enforcing but after awhile, it will give us the fruits. But soon many you will realize that those well organized restaurants, food is actually expensive 😂😂😂 because many have been eating from these toninyiraz

@ApolloBuregyeya @Danieobua A country that wants to see development would cut cement taxation for a period of time 2-5years and see what happens.

Taxing Cement is Taxing Jobs. === Cement is not a luxury. Cement is jobs, skills, and infrastructure. In Uganda, a bag is already around UGX 32,000 to 40,000. In China, that same bag is closer to UGX 7,000 to 11,000. In Turkey, about UGX 11,000 to 15,000. So why is cement in a developing country priced like a luxury commodity? And then we add tax on top? Because, every bag moved is a mason trained, a technician empowered, a contractor scaled, housing accessed, . Construction is one of the few industries where skills are built through doing. The casual labourer today becomes the mason tomorrow, and the mason becomes the contractor. When you increase tax on cement, you are not just raising revenue. You are raising the cost of building homes, schools, clinics, and businesses. You are slowing down the second largest employer in Uganda after agriculture. Fewer sites start. Fewer young people learn. Fewer businesses emerge. Projects delay. Informal jobs disappear quietly. Housing becomes more expensive. The economy tightens where it should expand. Serious economies don’t treat cement as a consumption good. They treat it as a production input. So, given that we now know how cement is important to industry development, do we still want to tax each bag more or do we want more bags moving across the country?

@UNIPH3 That’s something to grab

@DailyMonitor Wow - sorry

WATCH: A three-hour downpour in Koboko today has left a number of families stranded after their homes, plantations, and livestock were submerged. The worst-hit area is Mundukudu B Cell, Apa Ward, in Koboko South Division of Koboko Municipality. Affected residents are appealing to authorities for assistance. Though rains have fallen in Koboko over the past three days, today’s flooding is believed to have been caused by the Apa River bursting its banks. #MonitorUpdates 📹: Rashul Adidi

A highlight of the morning sessions: Assoc. Prof. Frank Asiimwe @RubabindaJr President @TheUMAofficial challenged the Ministry of Health @MinofHealthUG on the critical issue of rural surgical care. In a direct dialogue with Dr. Richard Kabanda , Prof. Asiimwe pushed for stronger engagement with stakeholders like @TheUMAofficial in policy-making. He laid out a 4-point roadmap for surgeon retention in our rural communities: 🔹 Train: Expanding specialized education. 🔹 Promote: Creating clear career pathways. 🔹 Equip: Providing the essential "Tools of the Trade" to get the job done. 🔹 Advocate: Pushing the government to provide social amenities (housing, schools, etc.) that make rural placement sustainable. It’s time to move beyond the city and ensure every Ugandan has access to a specialist. #ASOUCONF2026 #SurgicalEquity #UgandaMedical #RuralHealth #PolicyChange #UMA

@Polite_Imhotep @AMAZlNGNATURE That’s kind of sad 😂

Male honeybees (drones) have only one job mate with the queen mid-air. During ejaculation, his endophallus literally explodes and rips off inside her, acting as a natural “plug” to seal in the sperm and block other males. He loses so much fluid/pressure that he falls, dies in seconds. One shot, one life for the colony 🐝 Nature’s wild sacrifice

@nbstv @mnamayo2 I don’t know how many clothes people have had to replace in such taxis, let alone hold doors all through the trip. These so called taxis are a total menace!

The Ministry of Works and Transport has banned the entry and movement of dangerous mechanically conditioned (DMC) taxis within Kampala Capital City Authority and its suburbs, effective tomorrow. @mnamayo2 #NBSLiveAt9 #NBSUpdates
