Last evening at @Makerere , speaking to young leaders during a fireside conversation by @emergingleader_ , I shared a conviction: A leader is only as good as the clarity of his/her vision. If we are not clear about where we are going, then it doesn’t matter where we go.

Yesterday, I attended the Emerging Leaders Forum as a panelist, where we discussed what leadership truly means. I shared that leadership is shaped in adversity, built on conviction, and measured by impact, not titles. Leadership is not about what you survive, but who you become through it.

@aikaburahenda @OwnYourFutureUG Indeed the lack of sexual education at young age and the fear of parents to talk about sex to their parents have costed our young girls. We need to educate the girl child but also the boys to value a girl not to be an obstruction to her education. Thanks for the message Malaika

We’re slowly developing a distorted idea of patriotism that is built on empty slogans and lack of forward thinking. You can’t claim to love your nation while pushing it toward ruin and still call that love patriotic.

IF KNOWLEDGE IS POWER WHY NOT PURSUE IT INTENTIONALLY AND AGGRESSIVELY? I AM THRILLED TO BE PART OF THE FOREIGN POLICY LEADERSHIP PROGRAM, WE OUGHT TO UNDERSTAND THE INFLUENCE OF GLOBILIZATION AND DEAL WITH IT ACCORDINGLY FOR THE GOOD OF OUR PEOPLE.

Leadership comes with great responsibility, accountability and the duty to inspire, mentor and serve others. It also requires fostering a positive culture, acting as a role model and making ethical decisions that prioritize the team's growth and success over personal gain.

“The mandate of BoU is to promote price stability and a sound financial system. What is the impact of this Bill on price stability if it is passed the way it is? Because of the depreciation of the currency that is likely to occur as an unintended consequence of this Bill, we are likely to have a depreciated currency and the pass-through of imported items into domestic prices is going to raise prices significantly. So, our inflation is going to increase via the depreciation of the exchange rate. That means that we will need to either tighten monetary policy further if we are going to contain inflation, or we allow inflation to go beyond the 5% target if we don’t want to raise interest rates. That’s what we will have to grapple with. This inflation of 3% we have been enjoying is likely to be compromised through currency depreciation.” - Governor Atingi-Ego on the Protection of Sovereignty Bill 2026

"Chairman, a country without reserves is not sovereign. The potential of this Bill to destabilize Uganda’s balance of payments is our primary concern as a central bank. For example, last financial year the overall balance of payment surplus was USD 1.5 billion. That’s how we were able to increase our reserve coverage by USD 1.5 billion. Today as we speak our reserves are close to USD 6 billion. Why? Because these inflows have been coming in. The moment you tamper with these inflows here, we risk running down our reserves, and that is economic disaster for a country.” Governor Atingi-Ego on the Protection of Sovereignty Bill 2026 in an appearance before Parliament today.

@ojok_quinto @UPFYA_2008 The bill doesnot respect rje fundamental rights of the people, if they do why restrict policy influence,even funding from family members.This bill is supposed to focus on accountability not control,If I may ask,where does the ruling party get its funds and who do they account to

@UPFYA_2008 Whereas I respect comrade Obal's view that this Bill respect the fundamental rights of the people, I don't think we can sustain a positive debate in that regard, considering that the Bill in its nature is a complete departure from the Constitution dictates.

@AmbroseIra9079 @UPFYA_2008 The best we can do is go to media,radios etc and localize this bill in our languages to create awareness so as to mobilize ourselves to reject this. Tne elite silence is alarming that legal youth entities need to approach the elite that guide them the intergenerational thought

@UPFYA_2008 @yebareDenise Much as youth wish to stand and claim their rights as citizens, the system here when you raise up , you are silenced , If our Boss Sarah Bìreete was bundled like a sack of potatoes and every now andthen they are blaming youth to be violent its really grotesque.

@AlyceNamale @UPFYA_2008 Not only NYC, all legal youth entities in Uganda should be able to do something because this is not a future protectes but one blocked and restricted. The question is why after elections of new MPs?

@UPFYA_2008 We might disagree with Obal on some things but the one thing I agree with him is that the NYC should come up with a position paper on this Bill encompassing its effect on youth and present it to the Speaker and the Parliamentary Committee ASAP. Very happy and willing to help!

@obaldanzy @UPFYA_2008 Here we are not talking of quality of education though it is one of the things that surround the quality of leaders we have. Our governance system is crippled that our policies reflect our personnels.Moreso our leaders have lost their moral & ethical mind to chose what is right

@UPFYA_2008 Bills are considered by Parliament.The frustrations with how Parliament passes bills zeros down to the quality of Members of Parliament we vote.Times like this must remind us to consider the quality of MPs we send,bse in instances as this,your future entirely lies in their hands.

@UPFYA_2008 The bill denies the right of public participation in advocating for good governance.We should analyze it well.Ugandans are restricted from criticizing bad governance. We have alot of relatives outside Uganda who support us,accountability shouldnot be confused with sovereignity.

@UPFYA_2008 @obaldanzy , as presidential advisor on youth affairs. You have the ear of the supreme authority. We need to engage this matter on all fronts. So as you send us to engage parliament, we are also sending you to the office of the President.
