@RailwaysUganda And the Pakwach section??

The 375km track from Tororo to Gulu is rolling up real fast, with the earth works already in Gulu, and the steel & gravel closing in at an equally fast pace. February was the set completion date. That was moved up to October 2026. In a few months, we shall be ready to move.

Exciting times in Amudat District. Our women with disabilities are proudly participating in the local government Women's Day celebration at Kalas Grounds. Together, we're raising awareness and promoting inclusion in social services & decision-making. 💪 #WomensDay @Mglsd_UG

My wife is the only one working full-time and the main source of income for our family. I’m not working—not because I’m blind, but because I recently became blind. I’m still rehabilitating myself, learning how to use a computer, and dealing with some of the usual delays that come with being a new immigrant in a new country. But guess what, guys? As a man, I still try to support my wife by doing housework, preparing the kids for school, and handling other things I’m still able to do. To help reduce the stress on her and bring in an extra source of income, as a sighted blind couple, we create inspiring family contents on YouTube and Facebook every day. Sometimes this can be very stressful for my wife. After coming home from a night shift, she often can’t rest. She still has to do chores, cook, get groceries, and then create content with me—just so we can pay the bills. If you’re an immigrant in Canada, you know how hard it is when one person is the main provider. So let me just say: if you’ have not subscribed to our YouTube channel yet, please do with the link in the comment and please support our content by liking, reposting, commenting, and watching our videos. It really helps a lot. I’m sharing this with you all to let you know that life is a journey—a process. Sometimes challenges come along, but just keep going. I hope this inspires someone. And please tell my wife for me: Thank you for all your sacrifices. The chronicles of a Blind man

George Graham once said: “Tony Adams is Arsenal.” “Would you believe it? That sums it all up!” Tony Adams was the heart and soul of Arsenal. Debut at 17. Captain at 21. Nineteen years at one club. A brick wall in defence. Leadership. Standards. Authority. But off the pitch, he was fighting something far tougher. Alcoholism. Addiction. A prison sentence in 1990. He hit rock bottom. And then he rebuilt himself. Sobriety. Discipline. Purpose. When Arsène Wenger arrived, he extended Adams’ career and refined his game. Then came 1998. Everton. Title on the line. 89th minute. The centre-back is in the box. Ball drops. Left-footed half-volley. Top corner. League won. Arms wide. Highbury erupting. A perfect ending for a man who refused to be defined by his darkest days. Ten major trophies. One club.
