Hear from Dr Yuda Munyaw in the latest FIGO “Share Your Story” blog, highlighting how FIGO recommendations on assisted vaginal birth are being translated into practice at Haydom Lutheran Hospital in rural Tanzania. Through structured training, mentorship, teamwork and continuous quality improvement, the team increased safe vacuum-assisted births — helping reduce unnecessary second-stage caesarean sections while maintaining safe maternal and newborn outcomes. The story also demonstrates the impact of task-sharing, with trained midwives now performing most assisted vaginal births, improving timely access to care in a low-resource rural setting. A powerful example of evidence-based guidance improving maternal and newborn care in practice. Read the full blog: figo.org/blog/guidance-… #MaternalHealth #GlobalHealth #SafeBirth

Erute South MP Jonathan Odur confronts committee chair at Munyonyo over the #ProtectionOfSovereigntyBill2026. He challenged the directive to adopt the committee report without debating the bill clause-by-clause. The joint committee passed the report anyway — 22 votes to 11. A group of dissenting MPs is now drafting a minority report to table on the floor when the bill goes for second and third reading this Tuesday, May 5. #UgandaParliament #SovereigntyBill

BREAKING: Tensions flare at Commonwealth Resort Munyonyo over the #ProtectionOfSovereigntyBill2026. A section of MPs clashed with a committee chair after he proposed adopting the Attorney General’s amended bill as-is, skipping clause-by-clause review of public submissions. “All the public consultations have just been put in the bin. We just went with the Attorney General’s revised bill,” a source told me anonymously. #UgandaParliament
