My mother was kidnapped from the mosque by police officers. I helplessly followed the car she was in on a boda to CPS and Luzira. A few months later , I applied to study law and switched career from IT to Law.

Big win for Bamutakudde Landscapers and gardening company.
Yesterday we hosted @pearlug , Uganda’s online marketplace at Bamutakudde Model Village LC1 office. They donated 96 hoes + 2 slashers to the Bamutakudde Landscapers and gardening Company, creating 4 jobs for our youth to earn from slashing & greening our village.
So what’s the plan? The gardening company is an avenue to employ our young people into the flower business and compound land Scaping work. Our plan is to employ at least 15 youth.
Thank you @pearlug for supporting the vision! 🙏 #BamutakuddeModelVillage

It's like we are sleeping and this is a nightmare of epic proportions that is our daily experience. How do you disburse 25% in 5 years for a project that is meant to last 5 years and you are not skinned at the City Square?
Uganda takes five years to disburse just a quarter of the funding for a project designed to end in five years, World Bank officials told Speaker @ObothOboth
The team raised the delay during a meeting at @Parliament_Ug on 5 November 2026, explaining how approved financing was taking too long to translate into services for Ugandans.
Watch here:

Abdul El-Sayed and Zohran Mamdani, both of whom are Muslim, are celebrating Diwali and offering well wishes to their Hindu constituents.
But JD Vance, the Vice President of all Americans, who is married to a Hindu woman...

THE ABSURDITY OF AFRICAN ELECTION THEFT: Chango Machyo W’Obanda (1927–2013) was a prominent Ugandan Marxist public intellectual, educator and land surveyor. He studied land economics at the London School of Economics, and taught and worked extensively in adult education and extramural studies at Makerere University (including heading its Centre for Continuing Education in the eastern Ugandan city of Mbale). He wrote many journal articles and books (in English).
After the fall of the Ugandan military dictator Field Marshal Idi Amin in April 1979, Uganda attempted a return to electoral democracy in what proved to be a disastrous and stolen vote in December 1980.
Chango stood for Parliament on the ticket of the Uganda Patriotic Movement (UPM), led by a young militant called Yoweri Museveni (yes, today’s President). Chango was barred from standing by the UPC-stacked Electoral Commission because, wait for it, he could not produce a piece of paper proving to them that he was proficient in English, the official language!

Asked if he forgives Cindy Hyde-Smith for blocking his nomination for a federal judgeship in 2022:
COLOM: I forgive her. I'm a District Attorney. I mean, I see mothers forgive people that killed their son, right? ... To the best of my knowledge, I don't think an African American's being confirmed to any federal position since cindy hyde-smith has been in office. And what that tells us is she's not representing all people.

El-Sayed says when Bill Clinton told him at his 2007 graduation that he might run for office someday, "I laughed in his face. I said, 'Mr. President, I don't know if you saw my name, it's got 11 letters in it, and people like me don't get to run for office.'"

Fatima Elizabeth Cates (1865–1900) was the first woman to revert to Islam in Liverpool. May Allah have mercy on her.
The first Muslim converts in Liverpool faced significant challenges during the early years of their community. Fatima, who also served as the first mosque treasurer, was at the heart of these struggles.
Her family, particularly her mother, reacted with hostility to her conversion. Her mother even scolded her for reading what she called the “Muhammadan Bible.” However, Fatima persevered, and eventually, both her husband and younger sister embraced Islam.
When the early converts began gathering for prayers in a rented upper room at the Temperance Hall on Mount Vernon Street, they faced further hostility. Rubbish was reportedly thrown at them as they entered and left the premises.

I think people outside the South don't understand how big of a deal it is that a black man won a Mississippi Senate seat. Take all your moderate vs progressive stuff and stuff it, that's all a sideshow compared to the real issue here.
