I departed for Ghana 🇬🇭 on a global mission. While in Ghana, I'll take part in several events. Will deliver a pan-African lecture @ Accra Technical University on 23.11.2024 @ the One Africa Freedom Dialogue organized by @AFRICANVOICESI1. Will pay tribute to Kwame Nkrumah.✈️✈️✈️

In life, there are those who have eyes but they can't see. There are those who are blind but they can see. Always strive to be blind that you may see. Thank you @norbertmao for being blind & seeing the mess in parliament. Parliament will never be the same. Long live, Oracle.

Despite the tyranny of numbers that overwhelmed us, we declare that ours was not a numerical challenge but a moral challenge. We took up a fight everyone was cowering from and faced attacks from many quarters including from friends blinded by short term considerations. Many counseled me to throw in the towel fearing the outcome of the ballot. When the counting started, one MP told me that due to strict partisan voting I would be lucky to get ten votes. I put my seat on the line by telling him that if I got less than ten votes I would resign from Parliament. That aside, despite the opposition we faced, the fight was worthwhile. Thanks to the power of outrage fueled by many patriots, Parliament can breathe again. Our collective efforts brought a gush of fresh air in Parliament.

With due credits I share this video of a fable whose moral is that we should be careful who we elevate because bringing them down may cost us everything. The tragic greed, incompetence and corruption that has disgraced the leadership of the 11th Parliament cannot be blamed only on the outgoing leaders of the parliament. The responsibility for the abuse of office doesn’t lie with the abusers of the offices alone. The ultimate responsibility lies with the members who put them in the positions they abused in the first place. The 12th Parliament may not pick up all the broken pieces but it has a duty to pick up the pieces.

@OttoSam50178310 @nbstv @Allen_Kagina They called you?

@nbstv @Allen_Kagina I abandoned a masters at Makerere too for similar reasons Thank God by the time they called me me after 10 years to go and complete I had acquired another degree in law from UCU I now have 2 masters from Europe

.@Allen_Kagina: I did not finish the master’s program I was pursuing while lecturing at Makerere University due to an unfortunate experience. I disagreed with my supervisor over his lack of availability. He was extremely busy and had limited time. #NBSPeopleAndPower #NBSUpdates

@baroswahjr He has mastered the game of power.

Cherargei is such an interesting fellow, In 2017, He won the election with no agents. In 2022, He won again with no agents. Just 17 A4 posters in Mosoriot and two banners, one in Mosoriot and another in Namgoi. He voted, went home and waited to be called to collect his certificate. To date, No one knows his office, No one knows his PA, No one knows his driver. He will show up at an event, signal a photographer and tell him; ‘Piroo pichainik siyakwo, andaun eliput.” This is a man who will attend a harambee, Speak and walk out without contributing anything. A man whose car no one clings to, hoping to get handouts. A man with no ripisiik. A man no one says kikolong chi… And still, He remains the most preferred candidate for Senate. Angot ane angen yekai ale nyasi, lakini akachini kora.

PRINCIPLES THAT GUIDE MY LIFE Live your life honestly and fearlessly. Speak the truth to everyone all the time. Pursue justice for everyone. Don’t steal and don’t commit atrocities against anyone. Maintain integrity in everything you say and do. Never cower in the face of injustice. Fight for African and human liberation and dignity until your last breath. Don’t compromise on these core principles no matter the amount of violence or opposition you face.

@MigunaMiguna Thank you, Doctor.

The tragic death of former YK’92 chief coordinator, Cyrus Jirongo, is a lesson to young thugs like Babu Patel, Farouk Kibet, Kasmuel MacOure and others: Thuggery may put coins in your pocket and fleeting glamour in your miserable life, but in the end Obell Sibuor is waiting for you in Hell.

@Africanson__ @MKarekye So unfortunate! Dr. Besigye was right when he said, "The elites are the most useless people we have in Uganda."

@MKarekye You people are like brainwashed! Uh!

“Your Excellency, this gown I am wearing, this degree I am receiving, this moment I am living… none of it would exist without you. I come from a home where school fees were a dream too heavy to carry. But because you said education must reach every child, I sat in a UPE classroom. Because you said no child should stop at Primary, I continued to USE. And because you believed that even the poorest among us can reach university, today I stand here… a graduate. This cap, this gown, these cheers — they all belong to you first. Baba, I may never shake your hand, but please know: today a village boy walked the red carpet carrying your picture the way a son carries his father’s pride.” #ProtectingTheGains on 15/01/2026

@NRMYouthsDesk @KagutaMuseveni @JanetMuseveni @StateHouseUg @GovUganda @mkainerugaba @Mwijukyeivan @BalaamBarugahar @NRMOnline @kyambogou Dr. Besigye was right when he said, "The elites are the most useless people we have in Uganda."

Today, as the gates of Kyambogo University opened for the #21stgraduation, something beautiful happened on that red carpet. Atwiine Timothy, a boy of the village, child of Universal Primary Education and Universal Secondary Education, did not walk alone. In his hands he carried a framed portrait of His Excellency President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni. With every step he took toward the podium, tears rolled down his cheeks. When he reached the centre of the carpet, he stopped, lifted the portrait high above his head, and spoke with a voice that broke yet never wavered: “Your Excellency, this gown I am wearing, this degree I am receiving, this moment I am living… none of it would exist without you. I come from a home where school fees were a dream too heavy to carry. But because you said education must reach every child, I sat in a UPE classroom. Because you said no child should stop at Primary, I continued to USE. And because you believed that even the poorest among us can reach university, today I stand here… a graduate. This cap, this gown, these cheers — they all belong to you first. Baba, I may never shake your hand, but please know: today a village boy walked the red carpet carrying your picture the way a son carries his father’s pride. Thank you for giving wings to children who had no shoes. Thank you for turning ‘impossible’ into ‘graduation day.’ From the bottom of my heart, and on behalf of millions who will never get the chance to say it in person: Tweyanzizza nyo, Your Excellency. Long live the father of UPE and USE. Long live the dream that made today possible." And with that, Atwiine Timothy bowed deeply to the portrait, placed it gently over his heart, and walked to receive his degree… proof that one man’s vision can lift an entire generation from the dust into the sky. Today, Uganda did not just graduate a student. Uganda graduated hope. ❤️ @KagutaMuseveni @JanetMuseveni @NRMOnline @AtwineTimo25631 @EliKatunguka @kyambogou #ProtectingTheGains #ThankYouMuseveni #UPE_USE #21stKyambogoGraduation2025

@Anite__Evelyn @KagutaMuseveni @Muni_University Yes, they should build industries, and innovation hubs. But, are they adequately trained for that, given that they went through the colonial education system that focuses on knowledge instead of skills?

I represented @KagutaMuseveni at the 8th graduation ceremony of @MuniUniversity. the presidents message to the graduants....is "you are the generation that will build industries,innovation hubs. The graduants should avoid reckless lifestyle such as promiscuity & drunkeness.

@martinssempa @CanaryMugume @sashaferguson12 @KagutaMuseveni @Sudhirntv @BalaamBarugahar @AnitahAmong @TonyNatif @jamesonen @newvisionwire @BbegMedia @MBU African wisfom teaches that, "He who follows the track of an elephant never gets wet from the dew on the bushes." Pastor, I plan to get married soon. I need your counseling before I walk into the institution of marriage.

Ugandan marriage and family life need more support. Instead of blaming @CanaryMugume and @sashaferguson12 please do something better. Demand that @KagutaMuseveni provides for a cabinet ministry to deal with issues of marriage and family life. The family is the most neglected institution in Uganda. We have a ministry of agriculture, for defense, elders, youth, karamoja even Luwero. But we dont have one to support marriage and family life. No one really knows the state of the family life in Uganda. No single minister champions the family during budget and policy guidance. There is no emergency response such as Sam Mayanja and Nabbanja responding to a land dispute or conflict. We are left on on our own. After reconizing the many challenges to the family including LGBTQ from western nations, radical feminism, pornography, gambling, alcohol, digital addictions and breakdown in communication etc. Look now, there is no single person to talk to Sasha and Canary. There is no one with mandate over family and marriage in Uganda. My friend @SabitiJoseph has asked us to reach out to them. Its like to whom it may concern. But we can do better than that. We need a systemic response which builds systems for family life health and prosperity. We need someone like Sam Mayanja and Judith Nabakooba who handle land conflicts to also champion the marriage and family life. They can network the ecosystem which includes the church, mosques, cultural institutions and all other agencies. Back in 2017 I realized that we were dealing with these highly visible marital breakdowns and the only people who gained were the newspaper and gossip media dealers. My 30 years of pro family work informs me that the best long term intervention is for a cabinet ministry of marriage of and family life. I wrote the concept paper as part of my masters program study and I had even offered @KagutaMuseveni to be part of the new agency. That was when I was younger, I am now much older and have no strength for such venture but I trust that good people can be found to champion such a cause. The constitution says that the family is the basic unit of society and must be promoted, defended and protected. I am of the view that the neglect has been too long and the consequences are all over us. As for @CanaryMugume I offered him free counselling before his marriage via this avenue of X and he rejected me saying that he would rather learn from the school of life and hard knocks. I saved the screen shots but it is the foolishness of youth which improves with age and experience. It however does not have to be so. We need to mandate marital preparation, support and emergency interventions. Otherwise we will continue in the never ending painful drama of honorable ambitions with much difficulties. The breakdown of the family is now a security concern since the Bazzukulu are having trouble in creating the homes of bringing up the next generation of Bazzukulu. The Cabinet ministry of marriage and family will be a great way to use our money to protect the gains and the future. Photos.

@ReachDrMuganga @CanaryMugume Thank you for adding a voice, Doctor. We grow through what we go through.

Dear @CanaryMugume, Thank you for finding the strength and courage to speak out in the middle of so much pain. So many men suffer in silence, carrying abuse alone just to “keep the peace,” and your voice gives them permission to be heard. Society often expects men to endure anything simply because they are men, but you are reminding all of us that men, too, deserve safety, dignity and belief. What you have shared is deeply unfair, and no human should ever have to silently endure abuse just because society expects them to “be strong” and absorb it. You have carried a heavy burden for so long, and it means a lot that you chose to share your truth. Please know from the depths of our hearts: we see you, we hear you, and we stand firmly by your side with love and respect. It hurts that after all you have endured, you are now being painted as an abuser and an irresponsible father. That is a deeply wounding injustice, especially when you have the scars, the stories, and the evidence of the violence you survived, and when you have continued to support your children financially and emotionally despite being shut out of their lives. Your pain, your confusion, and your sense of betrayal all make complete sense. No one should have to fight this hard just to be seen as a loving father and a human being deserving of fairness. Please hold onto this, my brother: tomorrow can be gentler than today. The storm around you will not rage forever. One day this chaos will settle, the noise will quiet down, and this painful chapter will be behind you and part of your history, not your destiny. Continue having hope that you will reunite with your incredible children soon. They are part of your soul, and there is a future where you can hold them freely, without fear, accusation, or interference. Even as you heal, please keep being a father to your children in every way that is possible for you right now. They need you and not just as a provider, but as the safe, steady parent whose love never stops showing up, even from a distance. Do not let worry about the size of the child support you give overshadow the bigger truth: in this world, our real wealth is our children. Every sacrifice, every sleepless night, every shilling and every prayer you make for them is an investment in what matters most. Continue to support them the best way you can, and continue to fight for them with dignity and patience. Be the parent they need; present in spirit, unwavering in love, and ready to embrace them fully when that door finally opens. One day, they will be old enough to see clearly who stood, who loved, and who never gave up on them. Please give yourself permission to rest and to heal. You have carried so much, for so long. As you take this time to recover, remember that you are not alone. We stand with you. We believe you. We care about you. We love you. And we look forward to the day when your tears will be replaced with the joy of being fully present in your children’s lives again.

@BiwoTitus @norbertmao It's for the critical thinkers to fathom.

@norbertmao The title is kinda misleading then, don't you think?

Everyone. Because the book isn’t about land!

@Anite__Evelyn @anitez The captain is blessed, as I can see. Take great care of him. Love is beautiful.

Proverbs 18:22,He who finds a wife finds a good thing & receives favor from the LORD. That's why my Darling Amb Allan Captain of @AnitEz natural waters he is loved & worshiped. Just so you know i got the bragging rights from God. See you at comments section attack for attack!!

@MigunaMiguna Doctor, the battle line is being drawn. Our elders say, "A male tortoise 🐢 is seen on fire 🔥. "

I declared sometime back that if The Butcher of River Yala and Shakahola, the Ruaraka Land Thief, the Chief Abductor, Torturer, Sedator and Court Contemnor, Fred Okeng’o Matiang’i, vies for the presidency of the Republic of Kenya, yours truly will challenge him. My fellow Freedom Fighters and Revolutionaries, let us put on our uniforms, roll up our sleeves and get ready, because the Organized Bandits have declared war. I will be there—physically, mentally, emotionally and with everything God gave me—to show these horrible thugs that Kenya Belongs to Us; not to them. We are 99% strong while they represent only 1%.

@PR_Paul_BIYA @ChantalBIYA_Cmr @CabinetCivilPRC @PRC_Cellcom @MincomCameroun @diplocam_minrex @Pm237Services @CamerounTribune Lord Acton was right when he said, "Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely." Who cursed us?

At this point in time when the sovereign people have once again placed their trust in me for a new term of office, my first thoughts are with all those who have unnecessarily lost their lives, as well with their families, as a result of the post-election violence. #Biya2025

@topteeanalytics @PR_Paul_BIYA @ChantalBIYA_Cmr @CabinetCivilPRC @PRC_Cellcom @MincomCameroun @diplocam_minrex @Pm237Services @CamerounTribune Since 1982. So unfortunate for Africa.

@PR_Paul_BIYA @ChantalBIYA_Cmr @CabinetCivilPRC @PRC_Cellcom @MincomCameroun @diplocam_minrex @Pm237Services @CamerounTribune I ask again “Who curse the whole of Africa”?. You have been in power since 1962 without any tangible development. Remember you come with nothing and you shall leave with nothing.

@francis_isano @DPSecretariat1 @norbertmao @NRMOnline @KagutaMuseveni @norbertmao is one of the most misunderstood politicians of all time.
