Office empya ekola ku Sunday…! 👀
Our resolve to keep Uganda safe from disease outbreaks is unwavering. It’s TOTAL!
Today, we sounded the call for preparedness, strengthened coordination and reaffirmed our commitment to swift response to the viral outbreak in DRC.

UPDATE: The Ministry of Health has tested drones to transport medical supplies and patient samples from Kalangala District to laboratories in Kampala, in a move aimed at reducing delays in diagnosis and treatment. Ms Prossy Mbabazi, who oversees the drone project at the ministry, said the technology is expected to shorten the time taken to transport samples from island health facilities to specialised laboratories. Currently, samples collected from 16 health facilities in Kalangala are transported by road, with some taking several days to reach laboratories. The initial rollout will cover Jaana, Bufumira, Kyamuswa and Bubeke health centres, with plans to extend the service to more islands.

Please take note. We dont have Ebola in Uganda, but remain vigilant and report suspected unauthorised border crossings to the relevant authorities to facilitate screening and necessary public health follow-up. @DianaAtwine @MinofHealthUG @assempebwa
The government has been deliberate, and it works. For example, @MoICT_Ug has been supporting ICT innovators since 2017 when the National ICT Initiatives Support Programme (@NIISP_ICT ) was launched. A lot has been achieved, including the operationalisation of the @innovationhubug, which provides an incubation centre for developers. @azawedde @JustineLumumba
To Ugandan system and website developers, we need to have an honest conversation.
You can spend months building an app or SaaS to solve Uganda’s problems, only to realise that digital illiteracy is still a problem of its own. People may not understand your platform, trust it or even give it attention.
And sometimes, the solutions we build are better suited for markets where people already have the digital habits and purchasing power we assume Ugandans have.
One more thing: you cannot sustainably solve a country's financial problems when you're financially struggling yourself.
Build something that solves your own financial problem first. Get it working, earn from it, learn from the market, then use that experience to tackle bigger problems.
Uganda needs innovative developers, yes. But it also needs developers who understand the market they're building for.
We're not just building software. We're building businesses in a society that is still learning how to use, trust and pay for digital solutions.
Let me join the rest of the world to congratulate those thriving to become better. Congratulations, @musomesaug 🎊. Fruits of hard work are immense. You are now wiser, but we need a PhD.

The journey to ending HIV/AIDS may be protracted and long but @GovUganda has put its best foot forward in combating its spread and reducing new infections!
Today, I saw condoms produced in different flavours, apple, strawberry & vanilla…. one part of wider efforts to expand prevention choices !

The statement from Nigeria’s MoH doesn’t menrion the nationality of the patient.
Speculations about the nationality have arisen after an INDIVIDUAL posted unverified infomation.
And lastly, UGANDA HAS NO EBOLA.
PRESS STATEMENT
STAY INFORMED. STAY SAFE.
Public health is a shared responsibility, and the right information helps us all stay safe.
The Federal Government, working with the NCDC and relevant health authorities, is taking the necessary steps to protect public health and strengthen surveillance following the confirmation of an Ebola disease case in the FCT.
There is no need for panic. What matters is staying informed, practising good hand hygiene, knowing the symptoms and seeking guidance from public health authorities if you suspect exposure.
📌 Remember: Ebola spreads through direct contact with the blood or body fluids of an infected person who is sick or has died, or contaminated materials. It does not spread before symptoms begin.
For reliable information or to report a suspected case, call the NCDC toll-free line 6232, available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Let’s stay calm, rely on verified information and do our part to keep our communities safe.

CHARCOAL AND CLEAN COOKING DEBATE IN UGANDA: In February 2020, in my capacity as Global Senior Director of Policy at Fenix International and Vice President of the Global Off-Grid Lighting Association (GOGLA), I wrote to the Permanent Secretary /Secretary to the Treasury, Mr. Keith Muhakanizi. I proposed measures to get the price of cooking gas below the price of charcoal. He made a response. 18% VAT on gas was removed. It’s 2026, and accessories e.g. LPG cylinders still face 35% import duty! Ndugu @rggoobi and team can work on this.I hope Energy Minister Hon. @DrMusenero acts on some of these issues as PSST Muhakanizi advised. 🙏🏿
