I had a very fruitful and cordial meeting with Pastor Francis Mugwanya of Father’s Heart Church Ministry, during which we held meaningful discussions on how we can extend support to persons with disabilities in Ngora County, particularly those who require mobility aids to enhance their independence and participation in community life.
Pastor Francis leads an organization that does commendable work in supporting persons with disabilities by providing wheelchairs and other mobility aids at no cost to those in need. I had the opportunity to see firsthand the different types of wheelchairs they provide and learn more about the positive impact of this initiative in improving access to mobility and enhancing the quality of life of the beneficiaries.
Our discussions focused on opportunities to extend this valuable support to Ngora County, ensuring that persons with disabilities who require mobility assistance can access appropriate equipment to help them move around more independently, participate in community activities, and live with dignity.
I am grateful to Pastor Francis for the warm and cordial engagement, his commitment to serving persons with disabilities, and his willingness to extend this support to Ngora County next year.
This is a promising partnership, and I look forward to working together to reach more people in our community who need mobility support. Together, we can promote inclusion, restore hope, uphold dignity, and create opportunities for persons with disabilities to participate fully in the development of Ngora County.

We held a brief debriefing with our Speaker of the Parliament of Uganda, Rt. Hon. Jacob Oboth Oboth, ahead of our first meeting of the IPU African Geopolitical Group. The engagement provided valuable guidance and insights as we prepare for the discussions in Arusha.

Rest well our generational King,
Fortunately, in a telephone call, Her Royal Highness Kemigisa, told me that H.H. Oyo left a young boy heir that will be introduced to the public at the right time.
H.H. Oyo worked well with the Central Government, thereby avoiding the mistake of trying to use the Cultural Institutions that were restored by the NRM to promote sectarianism. It would be good if all the Cultural leaders understood the importance of this.
I direct that H.H. Oyo be given an official burial and, for three days, all the flags fly at half-mast. The three days are: the day of the burial, the day before and the day after. May his soul rest in eternal peace.
Signed:
Yoweri K. Museveni
President of the Republic of Uganda

Last Week during the @Parliament_Ug Prime Minister’s question time, I asked Rt. Hon. Prime Minister @R_Nabbanja a question, in regards to the last cropping season, where there was a severe attack on the groundnuts by a groundnut rosette that has affected over 75% of the Households in Ngora and the neighboring districts.
I further prayed that @GovUganda provides farmers with rosette tolerant groundnut seeds varieties and planting material for a short term food security gaps in the next planting season.
The Prime Minister, responded to my question in affirmative to my prayers and assured the country that she would inform HE: President @KagutaMuseveni about the matter, for further engagement with @MAAIF_Uganda on the same matter.
The Prime Minister, further requested the farmers who can buy the Surenut - 2-14 seeds that are rosette tolerant as the government intention is goes on.
