I had a beautiful moment with my grandmother! Traditionally, we refer to our grannies as husband or wife depending on the relationship. She came and sat on the laps of her husband. She is about 100 years old. God has been gracious to her and to us.

CAA has a spokesperson or a CEO, can they explain whether this notice to come out at a time when the vigilance of the users of the airport has just unearthed a series of corruption scandals, is it intended to dumpen the patriotic Ugandans from exposing their rote? Uganda olemwa!

By-elections can be expensive, disruptive, and insensitive, esp if they are conducted after the death of an MP! We need a reform to say a party which wins a general election, does so for five years. In case of the death of an MP, the party that won should nominate a replacement.

It averagely takes 2 and a half hours to travel from Mukono to Kampala. For someone who does this journey every day, loses about 6 hrs of productive time! As a remedial measure, let @UNRA_UG work on the Kinawataka bypass and other smaller bypasses as relief roads! It is terrible!.

The Hon. @HEBobiwine recently graduated with a degree in law. Today, the court made a ruling abt the service award, and I would love to hear the response of the @NUP_Ug or @HEBobiwine abt the court ruling, given the previous views by the party and other leaders. @JoelSsenyonyi

Import substitution and austerity measures by govt are the only immediate feasible options against skyrocketing prices. This morning while on my way to Omoro, I had to heed the President's advice to buy cassava if one cannot afford the bread. Cassava is cheaper and better.

While I was a teenager growing up, I one time visited my sister. She had a pretty maid. At night she suspected that this young boy could easily tiptoe to the maid's room. So, she laid a trap, putting an empty tin in the corridor! I remember kicking it and running back to my room.

Mr Andrew Ojok was formerly unveiled as the NRM flagbearer on 7th May and he will officially be nominated on 13th May 2022 as the NRM candidate for Omoro County. He is best suited to replace his father to follow up on the previous pledges and the new ones too. We wish hm success.

When the big crusades first started in Ug around 1984/5, pentecostal used to pray more for the blind to see, lame to walk, deaf to hear! These days they pray more 4 prosperity, breakthroughs and for other types of diseases. Why the shift yet the blind, deaf and lame still exist?.
