Behind the work of @UKPC_UG and our communities are a dedicated team and community leaders who carry enormous responsibility, often with very little recognition. Today, I want to celebrate the people who work every day to ensure key populations can access support, organise and have a say in decisions affecting their lives. I know this year has asked a great deal of you. Funding cuts have meant difficult choices, heavier workloads and uncertainty about the future. Through it all, you have continued to care for people and lead with conviction. I am proud to work alongside you. Your commitment deserves recognition, resources and room to rest. Thank you for everything you give to our communities.

SOUTH AFRICAN VISAS UGANDAN PASSPORTS Guys, a person called MODJADJI MAHLANGU - Consular officer at South African High Commission, in Kampala took passports of Ugandans who had applied for visas. She locked their passports in her office and not even a single person at South African high commission, in Kampala can do anything. Her office was locked yesterday and locked today, some of the passports holders were meant to travel for 2 oceans marathons, paid tickets, accommodations and the high commission in Kampala says they don’t know where she is. SOUNDS LIKE A JOKE! @HomeAffairsSA what’s this? Ministry of foreign affairs Uganda( @mofaug ) please don’t take this lightly, follow it up and let Ugandans not be taken for granted. Tag South African authorities.

I remember when Ugandans used to line up at their embassy for visas as early as 4 a.m. It was not until the former Speaker of Parliament, Rebecca Kadaga, gave them a stern warning that they eased the process a bit. In Uganda, such embassies and diplomats may act with impunity against Ugandans, knowing that we are on our own. They also know that Ugandans tend to take such treatment lightly, which breeds complacency. @wekesa_amos @mkainerugaba

As I enter a new era of joy and self-love, I pray for the strength to let go of the past and focus on my future with loved ones. I affirm that this year will bring me love, forgiveness, patience, wisdom, courage, and wealth, along with endless joy. Amen.

Early today we mapped northern Uganda’s Adjumani District, meeting with a local CBO that supports youth education in the Nyumanzi Refugee Settlement. The meeting fostered valuable partnerships and ways to enhance support for the refugee community.

Kukimbia hatari haimaanishi kila wakati uhuru. Mradi wetu ujao unaleta mwanga juu ya hadithi zisizosemwa za wale ambao bado wanakwama katika kimya. Kupitia "Voices in the Shadows", tunaimarisha sauti za wakimbizi na jamii zinazohatarini, ambao mapambano yao hayana sauti.

Escaping danger doesn’t always mean freedom. Our upcoming project sheds light on the untold stories of those still trapped in silence. Through "Voices in the Shadows," we amplify the voices of refugees and vulnerable communities whose struggles go unseen.

I've always dreamed of having my own watch collection. The Jacob & Co. Flight of CR7 & the Heart of CR7 takes inspiration from some of my most iconic moments on the field. I hope you like them as much as I do.
