The Minister for Water and Environment, Maj Gen Kahinda Otafiire has told the Committee on Physical Infrastructure that tests carried out on the Intelligent Transport Monitoring System (ITMS) raised doubts on whether the technology could locate vehicles after their number plates were removed.
Otafiire’s submission came after Gen Katumba Wamala defended the project as a key security intervention aimed at detecting crime through integrated vehicle monitoring.
Otafiire inferred that the Uber, a hailing car service has a more advanced system than what is being used in the ITMS which he says just has trackers.

The Ambassador of @embassy_korea, H.E. Lee Sang-ho, paid me a courtesy visit to Parliament this morning. Napak Woman MP and Commissioner, Hon. @faithchuna1, Mukono Woman MP Hon. Amaniyo Draville Sheila, and Lamwo County MP Hon. Johnson Nyeko Kezekiya joined me in welcoming him.
South Korea is a country that has taken its bilateral relations with Uganda seriously since we gained independence.
I thanked the Ambassador for the support South Korea has extended to Uganda over the years and continues to provide towards our development.
We discussed areas where we can further strengthen our partnership, including parliamentary diplomacy, technology transfer and attracting more investors from South Korea. South Korea has transformed its Parliament into an e-Parliament, and there is a lot we can learn from its experience as we continue our efforts to digitise our Parliament and improve the way we serve citizens.
Through the Saemaul Undong (New Village Movement), South Korea established a model village in Mpigi, inspired by the country’s rural transformation strategy of the 1970s. Anyone interested in rural transformation should visit the model village and learn from its experience.
Like many Koreans, Ambassador Lee Sang-ho is a good golfer. I look forward to having a match with him soon.

Deputy Speaker @Thomas_Tayebwa this morning opened a two-day induction for Parliament’s Committees on Climate Change, and Natural Resources at Mestil Hotel in Kampala.
He told MPs that Parliament should move beyond responding to disasters after they occur and focus more on prevention and building resilience. He said Parliament’s four core mandates—legislation, appropriation, oversight and representation—give MPs the tools they need to drive meaningful action on climate change.
