I have heard with great sadness the death of Dr Opiote, a former personal physician to President Milton Obote. Dr Opiote was one of the most loyal people to Obote that I ever met. A simple man with a sharp mind, he possessed the gift of high intelligence and great humility. He carried himself with grace and was polite to all who met him. His name was Opio, and he added “te” drawn from the last two letters of Obote’s name. It was an expression of his love and loyalty to that icon of Uganda’s independence and African liberation. So dedicated to Obote was Dr Opiote that he lived the rest of his life with Milton. Even when Obote died, Dr Opiote continued to live and look after mama Miria Obote. While interviewing Obote for his autobiography, Dr Opiote was continually the source of details and corrections as Milton narrated to me his escape from Uganda on the morning of July 27, 1985. Fans of Obote will miss this gentle and polite doctor who made everyone feel respected and appreciated around him. May his soul RIP.

As we usher in the new school term, let's talk about something crucial for parents: personal finance management. Throughout my life as an adult, I have seen many families struggle with back-to-school expenses. Here are a few tips (THREAD).

The General Public is informed that it's true that the Appointing Authority named new Judges and forwarded their names to Parliament for approval. The list as was circulated is authentic. After the Parliamentary proceeding, appointees who will have been vetted successfully will be announced and assume their roles accordingly. Also, Justice Faridah Shamilah Bukirwa who had earlier been vetted was given a one- year contract of service. Please, disregard any other statement(s) in this matter. Thank you! FK

Over 70% of the land in Namibia is owned by the Germans who are just 2% of the country’s population. They got most of the lands through the extermination and genocide of several thousands of Herero and Nama people during the colonial era.

Namibia's first President, Sam Nujoma, has passed away at the age of 95. As the leader of the People's Liberation Army of Namibia (PLAN), he led guerrilla fighters in an armed struggle against apartheid South Africa Defence Forces from 1960 to 1989. He became Namibia's first president in 1990.

200K is a crazy fine for driving at 95Km/hr on what should be an Expressway. Why isn’t the limit 100Km/hr? Anyway, as a thumb rule, I prefer the crazy fine to negotiating bribes. Sorry for the bribe pickers!
