    I was looking through a map of Kampala city and found that only two small islands of green spaces remain in Kampala, surrounded by concrete. Those two islands are the Kabaka's palace and the Kasubi tombs both owned by @BugandaKingdom_ Thank you @cpmayiga and the whole Kingdom

    Watching CNN, and other inter'l media before my flight, I thought I was going to a war zone. Was in Addis yesterday, In Adama now but there is nothing, No bullets, No tension, bars are open, No roadblocks. There is actually more Millitary presence in Kampala than in Addis Ababa.

    Kenya has abolished car grants and sitting allowances for Members of Parliament. The incoming Mps will now have to buy their own cars, if they want. By this action alone, the government of Kenya has saved ugx 163 Billion of tax payer's money.

    This is Uhuru Kenyatta. He has sons, None of them is the next president. He has a daughter, she's not the next president. He has a wife, she is not the next president. He has served and is walking out, with his whole family. This is REAL PATRIOTISM. Asante sana Mweshimiwa Rais

    The person holding the umbrella for Kyagulanyi is Olivia Lutaaya. She spent 4 years in jail after the 2021 elections, where she was part of Kyagulanyi's campaign team. After enduring jail, she is back, assisting her candidate again.

    I was born, raised, educated and now working in the Museveni generation. I have also read about previous regimes and I honestly don't think @KagutaMuseveni is Uganda's worst president. I actually think he has been the best president we've had.

    In 1991, While she was at your age now, @RebeccaKadagaUG was not writing stupid incensitive tweets about elders. She was busy fighting for girls like you to be given 1.5 extra points at UACE so you can go to University and learn how to use smart phones and digital tools. If it

    Rwanda has 30 ministers. The ministers don't get government cars or lead cars. Once one is appointed minister, he or she is given a hire purchase car that they use while paying for(Off their salary.) The Ministers' can hire a driver whom they pay off their own money.
