Comrades we won, but this victory only launches us to begin our Journey of service at city hall. Thank you the people Kampala for the trusting me and for braving through all the challenges from the moment we started this campaign. God being my strength I will serve this city.

Today, I was represented by Deputy Lord Mayor Hon. Faridah Nakabugo at the send-off of Hon. Charles Matovu, former Busiro South MP, at his ancestral home in Nkungulutale, Wakiso District.
His contribution to public service and Uganda will remain part of his legacy.

This afternoon at 3:00 PM, we shall gather at NUP Headquarters, Makerere-Kavule, to pay tribute to our fallen leader, Hon. Charles Matovu.
It is with deep shock&sadness that I have learnt of the passing of our fellow leader, Hon. Charles Matovu, former MP for Busiro South and NUP flag bearer in the recent elections.
Sadly, despite the people鈥檚 mandate, his victory was stolen in broad daylight by the regime.

Speaking at the #HealthPromotionUg26 #HPConfUG26, Kampala Lord Mayor @RonaldBalimwezo highlighted the city鈥檚 garbage management challenge, noting that only 50% of the rubbish is collected. He called for urgent action on waste management and an air quality ordinance, stressing that methane and carbon dioxide emissions from garbage cannot be ignored as we advocate for health promotion and prevention of diseases. @DrAyumeCharles @RichardKabanda2 @MinofHealthUG @KCCAED @KCCAUG @DianaAtwine
I join fellow Ugandans in praying for Hon. Erias Lukwago following his hospitalization at Mulago Hospital yesterday. A champion of human rights and the rule of law deserves justice too. Justice delayed is justice denied!
Free Hon. Erias Lukwago!

Today, I joined the CORSU Disability Walk at MUBS Playground, covering 5km in solidarity with children and persons with disabilities.
I urged families to give these children love, support and access to education. Disability should never limit a child鈥檚 dreams or opportunities.
