But have you considered the possibility that Irene Ntale chose to speak publicly because she was tired of the constant questions and pressure from people asking when she would give birth? Imagine dealing with a deeply personal struggle while society keeps reminding you of it. Perhaps opening up was her way of helping people understand her reality and putting an end to the endless questions.
The bigger question is not why Irene chose to open up, but why society constantly puts women in positions where they feel compelled to explain why they haven’t had children.
I genuinely feel for Irene Ntale and every woman going through fertility struggles. My heart goes out to them, and nothing about what I said was meant to ridicule, dismiss or blame anyone for their struggles. This topic is equally as close to my heart as someone who is yet to have a blessing of a child.
My point was simple: sometimes, sharing your most vulnerable moments with the internet exposes you to people who have no intention of understanding you. They will take your tears, turn them into memes, twist your words and create narratives that serve their own interests. And before you know it, a video of you crying is a sticker in comments and whatsapp groups.
Perhaps my tone came across as more energetic than some expected, but we need to learn to separate delivery from intention. Not everyone who speaks passionately is being insensitive, and not everyone who says “I feel bad” is being sarcastic.
What’s even more interesting is how quickly people can condemn others for supposedly lacking empathy while overlooking how easily they themselves can misrepresent someone’s words. Sometimes, the very behaviour we’re criticising is the behaviour we’re participating in.
I said what I said out of concern, not cruelty. You can disagree with my perspective, but please disagree with what I actually said, not a version of it you’ve created to suit a particular narrative.
The internet is full of people looking for engagement, validation and their next viral moment. Don’t give a monkey a gun and expect it to understand the responsibility that comes with it.
Irene deserves compassion. Every woman facing these struggles deserves compassion. And perhaps we all need to be a little more careful about what we expose to an audience that doesn’t always have our best interests at heart.
Who else sees a resemblance with the current PM, Nabbanja R?!
Uganda’s former Prime Minister Prof. Apollo Nsibambi left behind a controversial succession decision when he named his eldest daughter, Rhoda Nakimuli Kasujja, as his heir, challenging traditional Buganda customs that generally favoured male successors.
Nsibambi, who served as Prime Minister from April 1999 to May 2011, died at his home in Bulange, Rubaga Division, Kampala, on May 28, 2019, aged 78, after battling cancer for nearly a decade. His widow, Esther, said he died peacefully and was able to speak shortly before his death. A post-mortem examination later identified pulmonary embolism, a blood clot in the lungs, as the immediate cause.
His decision to appoint his daughter as heir triggered debate within the Ffumbe clan, which traditionally favoured a male successor, such as a brother or nephew. While some clan leaders questioned the cultural validity of the will, the Church of Uganda defended the decision on biblical grounds. President Yoweri Museveni also backed Nsibambi, arguing that parents should be free to choose heirs they trust, regardless of gender.
Beyond the succession dispute, Nsibambi was remembered as a distinguished academic and public servant. He taught political science at Makerere University, directed the Makerere Institute of Social Research and served as the university’s chancellor from 2003 to 2007.
He also served as Minister of Public Service and Minister of Education and Sports before becoming Prime Minister. He was buried at his family home in Buloba, Wakiso District.

3000 households experience blackouts everyday

The Uganda Electricity Distribution Company Limited (UEDCL) has launched a nationwide blood donation drive targeting 3,000 units of blood across its 15 operational territories as part of its Customer Experience Month activities.
Speaking at the launch, UEDCL Managing Director Eng. Joselynne Rwabwogo highlighted the company's commitment to extending customer care beyond electricity distribution to supporting the health and well-being of the communities it serves.
Held under the theme “The Extra Mile,” this year's Customer Experience Month challenges UEDCL to go beyond its routine responsibilities and make a meaningful contribution to society through initiatives that save lives.
The Managing Director noted that the demand for blood remains critical, with mothers experiencing complications during childbirth, children suffering from severe anaemia and patients undergoing surgery among those who depend on timely access to safe blood.
“By donating blood, you can help ensure that this essential resource is available in our country when lives depend on it,” the Managing Director said, encouraging eligible staff, customers and members of the public to participate in the campaign.
The initiative is being coordinated by UEDCL's Customer Experience and Corporate Affairs teams, working with territory managers to mobilise employees and customers across the company's 15 territories. The target of 3,000 units is expected to be achieved through coordinated donation activities across the country.
The Managing Director commended the teams involved in organising the campaign and recognised the Uganda Blood Transfusion Service and the Uganda Red Cross Society for partnering with UEDCL to support the initiative.
She called on eligible employees to donate blood within their respective territories and encouraged them to mobilise family members, friends and customers to participate.
“One of the easiest and most meaningful ways to save a life is through blood donation,” he said, urging Ugandans to embrace regular voluntary donation as a lasting commitment to helping others.
Beyond the blood donation campaign, the Managing Director reaffirmed UEDCL's commitment to improving the quality and reliability of electricity supply through distribution network strengthening, substation upgrades, refurbishment of distribution lines and improvements in response times.
She said these interventions are intended to reduce power interruptions, improve service response and provide more reliable electricity to customers.
The Managing Director emphasised that UEDCL's customer experience commitment encompasses both reliable electricity services and a genuine concern for the welfare of the communities in which the company operates.
She urged stakeholders to sustain their participation in blood donation initiatives beyond the October campaign, expressing hope that the drive would become an annual tradition.
The blood donation drive forms part of UEDCL's broader efforts to strengthen customer relationships and demonstrate corporate social responsibility while contributing to the availability of blood for patients who need life-saving transfusions. @UEDCLTD @UgandaRedCross
