Dear employers, Hire for character. Train for skill. @Hbamulinde @jackiearinda @Vicmwenya @WKwinn

Nestle just lost 413,793 KitKat bars. Someone stole them off a truck heading from their factory in central Italy to Poland, about 1,300 km away. Roughly $1 million in chocolate. The truck, the bars, all of it, just gone. A European Parliament study puts cargo theft costs across Europe at €8.2 billion a year. That works out to about €2.5 million worth of goods disappearing from trucks and warehouses every 24 hours. The industry group TAPA tracked 157,421 cargo thefts across 129 countries between 2022 and 2024. Only 6% of those included how much was actually taken, and that 6% alone added up to €2.7 billion. The real number is way bigger. Germany gets hit the hardest. DHL's own data shows that a truckload is stolen every 20 minutes there, costing roughly €2.2 billion a year. The fastest-growing method is "phantom carriers," where criminal groups register fake trucking companies with forged documents, show up at warehouses with legit-looking paperwork, load the cargo, and drive off. No weapons, no break-ins. Just forged IDs and a clipboard. The German Insurance Association logged 88 phantom carrier cases in the first seven months of 2025, matching the total for the previous year. Food is the most-stolen category in Europe, accounting for 10-20% of all cargo thefts. Chocolate is a top target because it doesn't spoil, everyone wants it, and it sells fast on unofficial markets. 20 tonnes of Nutella and Kinder Eggs were stolen in Germany in 2017. A crime ring that moved 287 tonnes of Swiss chocolate worth $8 million over the course of 2014. 20 tonnes of Milka were taken from an Austrian factory in 2019 using forged pickup papers. Timing makes this one sting. Cocoa went from about $2,400 per ton three years ago to over $12,600 in late 2024. Prices have dropped to around $5,000-$6,000 in early 2026, but that's still double the historical average. In Poland, where these bars were headed, chocolate retail prices jumped 32.6% last year according to EU data. The product is worth stealing right now more than at almost any point in the past decade. Nestlé says each bar has a scannable code that routes back to the company. Decent tracking. But when €2.5 million in cargo disappears from European supply chains every single day, 413,793 KitKat bars are a rounding error.

@CounselAllanVic @WinfredBonjour But the word is there on the box and it doesn't show anything like what you wrote 😒

@WinfredBonjour Banange...rubber band

I bought this thinking they were wrist bands. But everyone is laughing and not telling me 😭

NORAD intercepted a civilian aircraft that breached the Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) over Palm Beach, Florida, where President Trump is spending the weekend. F-16 fighter jets were scrambled to intercept the aircraft, and flares were dispensed to communicate with the pilot. The aircraft was safely escorted out of the area, and the Secret Service confirmed there's no threat to Trump or his plane. This isn't an isolated incident; NORAD has responded to over 20 similar breaches in the Palm Beach area since Trump's inauguration. The incidents highlight the importance of adhering to TFR procedures to ensure flight safety and national security

@DeeDeeRDMD @nyombi81 Why the hopefully now 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@nyombi81 He should know, hopefully 😅

Asked this man to stay,in bed all day with me and he goes,"I've indulged all day Nagasha."he makes weighing gestures,"Timor-Leste,your rent or me in bed all day.I gotta work." 🥹I thought I could be greedily selfish,sinful and get all three.😭

I have to be honest that @JenniferMusisi you had tough love and you were what we needed. You had started to make littering "expensive", flowers and grass had been planted and Kampala has stared to flourish. How I wish many more had understood you and your pure heart. We lost you!

He makes a point on the language issue 🤣🤣 you need a language certificate to enter Britain, but for them to come, no need, we already speak her language.

They call it “Saala size!” Only one female prison warder thought necessary to ask me to do it—once. She summoned publicly a day after my admission to prison. I went over and greeted her. She told me: “Saala size!” like 4 times. I asked what it meant. She told me to squat. I

MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT AND OTHERS SUCCESSFULLY PROSECUTED AND CONVICTED OF CAUSING FINANCIAL LOSS, THEFT, AND CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD Today, March 27, 2026, the ODPP secured convictions against Hon. Otukol Samuel, a Member of Parliament and Director in both Samix Uganda Ltd and Zedkol Financial Services, Odap Francis, former Chief Administrative Officer, and Wamburu Willy, Acting Chief Financial Officer of Namisindwa District, and Osire Ezekiel, Director of Zedkol Financial Services, for causing financial loss, theft, and conspiracy to defraud, at the Anti-Corruption Court. Mr. Odap Francis and Mr. Wamburu Willy, during June, October, and November 2019, processed payments purported to be staff loan deductions, to companies that had not provided any services to the district in the sums UGX 82,530,413 to United for Development SACCO, UGX 202,483,413 to Samix Uganda Ltd, and UGX 210,430,890 to Zedkol Financial Services. This action was contrary to the guidelines issued by the Ministry of Public Service, which required payment of loan deductions to a single deduction code managed by the Uganda Consumer Lenders Association (UCLA). Hon. Otukol Samuel and Mr. Osire Ezekiel withdrew the money from the companies’ accounts upon receipt and utilised it. The said companies were not licensed by the Uganda Microfinance Regulatory Authority (UMRA) to provide financial services; they were not members of UCLA; and they did not provide loans to the staff of Namisindwa District Local Government. The court convicted Mr. Odap Francis and Mr. Wamburu Willy on three counts of causing financial loss and two counts of conspiracy to defraud. The court convicted Hon. Otukol Samuel on two counts of theft and two counts of conspiracy to defraud, while Osire Ezekiel was convicted on one count of theft and one count of conspiracy to defraud. The court will sentence the convicts on April 1, 2026. The matter was prosecuted by Emily Mutuzo Sendaula, Senior State Attorney, before Her Worship Asiimwe Ester.#ODPPUGANDA

@realkimetojoy I am a heavy book reader, via phone and physical books i might amount to 2000 books or more. And not even once have I read a self help book. I even hate ones with struggle story lines.

LinkedIn is so desperate. Why do I get a notification that someone has made a comment on a post of someone else I probably do not know and I should go read it. Such needy behavior.

@Nabakooza_ @DonBabaVoss That's even better than since you're able to concentrate ✔️ did you watch Lioness by the same guy?

@kerkozer @DonBabaVoss Actually I tried Landman and still failed. Meanwhile I’m an indoor person so movies and series are my best friends

Bored me too and I gave up. Same with Yellowstone

A little line in Politico that says a lot about how quickly the world has changed “Current advice from [European] Council is that no electronics are taken to the US or China,” said a senior EU official. “When this isn't possible, electronics that are brought back must be wiped”

Did you know that butane and propane, commonly known as LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) or cooking gas, are naturally colorless and odorless? That rotten egg smell you perceive during a gas leak isn’t the gas itself. It comes from an additive called ethyl mercaptan, which is added as a safety measure so leaks can be easily detected.
