The hypocrisy is for us to witness Bobi Wine literally put his life on the line every single day, have live bullets shot at him and then come here and act shocked that he is flying his children out

A gentle reminder to document your joy, take pictures/ videos, journal your good days, bask in the moment.
And on the days when joy feels a little far off go back to those moments and remind yourself that if joy found you then, joy can find you anywhere anytime❤️

A country that has been legislating on what happens in people’s bedrooms suddenly drawing the line at marital rape is very telling🙃
Sarah Opendi (Tororo DWR) has revealed that there will be no provision criminalising marital rape in the proposed Marriage Bill that she is working on. Opendi argues that whatever happens in people’s bedrooms isn’t her business & encouraged wives raped by their husbands to report

Wdym “Engage in sexual activity”
children cannot give consent so the word you are looking for is rape.
As for the Pedophiles exposing themselves in the comments🚮
we live in hell
Teacher Ssenfuna John visited the home of one of his students to engage in sexual activity, under the assumption that her parents were absent.
However, he was ambushed and is yet to face the consequences for his reprehensible behavior.

I once said this and I’ll say it again.
Our health care system doesn’t need digital influencers
If good services are being delivered they will speak for themselves.

Pay health workers their worth‼️
A nurse at Entebbe hospital says she worked for 20 days from February to April and was expecting at least Shs 1.6 million but received only Shs 560,000 on Wednesday when the ministry paid the arrears. This wrongly implies that she worked for only 10 days in the 3 months
