Otunnu Speaks
Separate from my decades of leadership at the UN, I have extensive experience of working outside the UN.
I have been a practicing lawyer in New York City, a university professor in the US and France, the head of a think tank (IPI), the leader of a community-based movement for rebuilding a war-broken society, and have served on the boards of major institutions and been a member of key international commissions.
I would therefore bring to UN leadership, the combination of deep inside knowledge and extensive outside perspective of the UN.

Thank you.
If Paul Mackenzie dies in prison before finishing the 200-year term, the sentence ends immediately. Imprisonment requires a living person; no remaining time is served after death.
Standard procedure applies: the death is investigated (often by a coroner), then the body is released to the family for burial. The long fixed term was chosen over death precisely to keep him alive rather than create a martyr.

Help me ask @grok what will happen if Paul MacKenzie dies before serving his 200-year sentence in Kenya prisons.

Learn the language and fit in. Apwonyo leb acoli kito.
The day I get a big government office, even when I am surrounded by fellow Acholi’s only, we shall not accept speaking Acholi during official working hours because eeeeeh, how do you enter an office and everyone is speaking Runyankole or Luganda? How does one who does not speak your language feel when they enter your office and you are just looking at them with their English? Eeeeeh eeeeeh, Uganda.

We are not growing enough food. If rice and beans from TZ, Irish potatoes, vegetables and fruits from Kenya are blocked for one month Uganda will starve.
ANY ECONOMISTS TO EXPLAIN THIS ..?
A basin of dry cassava chips in Ocorimongin Market, Katakwi District as of Friday 30th October 2026 went for Shs 100,000. (A basin is approximately 15 kgs. Meaning price per Kg is approximately Shs 7,000).
Meanwhile, in the neighboring districts of Kapelebyong, Amuria and Kumi, the same Cassava chips goes for roughly Shs 40,000 (Approximately 3,000 per Kg). Meaning the price per Kg in Katakwi is more than twice the prices in the neighboring districts.
On the other hand, beans that have been averaging at Shs 3,000 for the last 10 years are now at Shs 7,500 in the same market.
Is this Exploitation? OR Is it the Exchange rate effect of a shilling Vs a dollar..? @rggoobi @henrymusasizi1 @jessica_alupo @GCICUganda @DuncanAbigaba @baryamureeba

200 bicycles to students of Gulu SS and Gulu Army SS. The struggle continues for the many who still walk long distances to access education. A big thank you to Buffalo Bicycles, MOE, Mapenduzi Foundation and the management of the schoos for the great partnership !
Polojekiti jitwaale e Lira oba Hoima. Let Kampala breathe.
"Ugandans shouted, yet I had planned to bring development to Kampala. I now give up on City Square," said businessman Hassan Bulwadda.
His statement comes after the Cabinet halted a contentious plan to redevelop Constitution Square into a commercial real estate complex, bringing an end to a high-stakes tug-of-war over Kampala’s premier green space and historic landmark.
Mr. Bulwadda had sought to construct an eco-friendly complex featuring a high-end hotel, a shopping mall, and solar-powered amenities on the two-acre property.

What should be more concerning is that, even if you prove beyond doubt that a certain pastor fakes miracles, and parade all the unchallengeable evidence including parading those have acted lame, sick, or possessed in his church, that pastor’s church will still fill. They will watch all that evidence and still go there. We underestimate the power of psychological manipulation and desperation. In The Prince (1532), Machiavelli taught manipulators that, “one who deceives will always find those who allow themselves to be deceived”. Sometimes it is circumstances, sometimes it is mental weakness, sometimes it’s because the manipulator is good at it.
My church denied me the opportunity to share a similar problem with the members. I approached one of the administrators believing, by any chance, a brother or sister would help in any way, as my church had done to others before. I realized that I even in ⛪ you need connections.
One of the reasons I sometimes share people’s needs here is; while I don’t expect many people to help and not everyone to be helped, at least I know that sometimes someone gets helped. Even if it is just one person helped out of 10 shared, that means a lot to that one person - and I will have done my small part within my means. So, share a needy person’s request/voice on your page when you can, never know.
Thanks Dr @ReachDrMuganga for coming through for this Police officer. I hope he spreads humanity to others too, for a better world. And I hope he achieves his dream for a Masters.

The government dictates if and how you benefit from your career.
Chris Obore. Joseph Sabiti. Mildred Tuhaise. Sadab Kitatta. Raymond Mujuni. Benson Ongom. Alex Bukumunhe. Sheila Nduhukire. Ali Mivule. Herbert Zziwa. Francis Jjingo. Mariam Nalunkuuma. Faridah Kulabako. Sam Paul Nakhaima. Zahara Namuli. Emmaneul Ainebyoona.
What do all the above have in common? Well, they left the media for government jobs (which is not a crime).
But why, given their PASSION for telling good stories, did they eventually buckle and join agencies which they were critical of? Poor pay? School fees pressure? No room for career growth? An annoying supervisor? Read our well-researched story (which was done PASSIONATELY by yours truly), and tell me what you think. The story STRICTLY FOCUSES on those who joined public institutions, not private ones like NGOs. @BbegMedia

A sigh of relief at the sight of moving images of Sam Mugumya. But the weight of the imagination of the treatment he is enduring in his incarceration can't allow food to go down one's oesophagus in peace.

Walk away.
Now that Nsamba Vincent a security guard, the alleged killer of our beloved music icon Moses Matovu has been arrested in Nansana,he will be held accountable for his actions. However, the woman involved Rose Tumusiime cannot be overlooked,she is the true root of this tragedy,she was dating two men and engaging in intimacy with both,ultimately led to the devastating loss of Moses Matovu. This heartbreak could have been avoided and justice must be served for both of them.!!

When you reach 77, you will follow that advice. For now, they are your moral values that you want to assign to the late, boss.
