There are unknown bad guys that attacked the late Kasirye Gwanga's graveyard and burned his property as well.
UPDF and Police intervened and found when they were still on scene and these thugs had orders from a UPDF soldier at the rank of captain. He was also caught.

Mr 6 Months, your lies and deception can no longer fool the people of Kenya. Not a minute more, ndugu.
Yesterday, I called you out for going to cheat my cousins in the Gusii Nation. Even tomorrow, I know the lies you are going to spread. The only thing you are doing is an old script of memorizing names of villages and roads in Kisii and Nyamira. This is an old tired script you used in 2022. What a horrible playbook!
In four years, you have done nothing for them. No roads, no water, no electricity, no airport, nothing.
ZERO!
All you have are more lies and handouts. RiggyG is not a road in Kisii or Nyamira. Rigathi is not a water project. Gachagua is not an airport. The truthful man is not a rural electrification project.
I am sorry you have nothing to tell my cousins. Maybe you should re-launch the cancer hospital you have launched five times, two of them in my presence.
Leave DCP aspirants alone, or you will get another egg in the face, just like when you tried to con the widow and children of my late brother, Governor Gachagua.
I told you in advance that I would teach you real politics.
The half dose I gave you in Olkalou was just a dress rehearsal.
I am preparing the full dose to administer intravenously on 10th August 2027. You will not believe the lethargy. It will be cruel, fast and furious.
We shall apply a double Olkalou template in all 290 constituencies across the country. You will have no escape route to rig the elections, intimidate any public servant, or misuse our police service or any state agency. For your information, they are also waiting for you. Every time they look at their payslips or try to access medical care, they vow to retaliate at the ballot on 10th August 2027.
You shall vacate State House in shame and humiliation.
That is my promise to you and the country!
Adios!

Rigathi Gachagua is playing a deeper game than most people realise.
He knows the Court of Appeal will uphold his impeachment and lock him out of the presidential race. He also knows that large, excited crowds do not automatically become votes. That is why his real focus appears to be on shaping the ticket rather than forcing himself onto it.
Kalonzo Musyoka is respectable, but a significant section of voters may see him as part of the old establishment. Edwin Sifuna, by contrast, carries fresher energy and seems able to connect with both younger and older voters. The reaction whenever Sifuna’s name comes up is politically telling.
The Kitengela rally looks like a deliberate message. Gachagua reportedly met Sifuna beforehand, then went to the event with Kalonzo. Sifuna stayed away. Through the crowd’s response, Gachagua appears to have let Kalonzo see for himself that the ground is warming to Sifuna—without having to say it directly.
In coalition talks, this sets up a clear argument: make Sifuna the presidential candidate because of his broader appeal, then give the Mt Kenya region the deputy president slot. Without a meaningful stake for the Kikuyu vote, full mobilisation becomes harder. At that point Kalonzo would face a difficult choice—accept a powerful position such as Prime Cabinet Secretary, or walk away and try another arrangement.
If Gachagua is ultimately barred from the ballot, he can still operate as a kingmaker, influencing who runs, who becomes running mate, and who gets key government roles. Matiang’i and others could be accommodated within the same negotiated structure.
The larger point is that Gachagua may not need to be the man on the ticket. He may be positioning himself to decide who is, who stands beside them, and how the government is formed afterwards—with the shared aim of ending Ruto’s presidency.

Isingiro District has a total population of 635,077 people, according to the definitive National Population and Housing Census results released by the Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS).
These people are represented by six Members of Parliament:
Isingiro South: Hon. Asensio Maali Mujuni
Isingiro West: Hon. Anthony Tumwesigye
Isingiro North: Hon. Bright Kanyontore Rwamirama
Bukanga County: Hon. Stephen Rwakanuma Kangwagye
Bukanga North County: Hon. Nathan Byanyima (NRM)
District Woman MP: Hon. Lillian Ruteraho (NRM)
Beyond having six MPs, Isingiro is also home to some of the country’s most influential people, including individuals from the First Family.
However, when you compare the number of MPs representing this district with the level of development on the ground, you might mistake Isingiro for a forgotten village somewhere in Congo.
Poor communities, deplorable roads, inadequate healthcare facilities, a lack of urban centres, limited electricity coverage in many trading centres, inadequate schools and persistent hunger that continues to claim lives.
You may ask yourself: Why does Isingiro have six MPs despite having a relatively small population compared to Wakiso District, whose population exceeds two million?
The answer, perhaps, lies in the politics.
Having multiple constituencies in Isingiro is politically beneficial to the ruling NRM. Even if the district’s constituencies were increased to more than ten, there is a strong likelihood that the MPs elected would still predominantly, if not entirely, come from the NRM. This is unlike Wakiso, where voters have a stronger tendency to support NUP and other opposition parties.
Now, you can connect the dots if you want.
I pity those who still believe that some governments are necessarily designed to work for the people, regardless of the political interests that sustain them.

Hello @UgandaEC, At All Saints (All Saints) (N-Z) polling station, the total number of registered voters is 308, but by some miracle 407 people apparently voted meaning there’s 99 voters in excess!
How much did Minsa Nabengo Kabanda pay to be declared as MP-Kampala central?

I think all political commentators discussing simanyi succession being different from transition as if the result of transition will be called Transistor instead of Successor. Then simanyi they do not want constipated democracy agreement, they should think of a forth option. Hold free and fair election managed by a neutral third party such as the UN and AU.
Government passes a law to invite invite an external body to manage elections and solve a profound crisis of legitimacy. Organisations such as the United Nations, African Union, European Union, or regional bodies would manage the whole process. Given the level of mistrust.
The conditions that typically make such an arrangement acceptable include:
1. Collapse of trust in domestic institutions
When the electoral commission, courts, security services, or civil service are perceived as partisan, the competing political actors may no longer trust any institution controlled by the state.
Examples:
➡️Following a civil war.
➡️After disputed elections that triggered violence.
➡️During a transition from authoritarian rule to democracy.
2. A negotiated political settlement
Government and opposition agree that neither side should control the electoral process.
This is often part of:
➡️Peace accords.
➡️National dialogue processes.
➡️Power-sharing agreements.
➡️Transitional government arrangements.
In such circumstances, external involvement is a mechanism for reducing mutual suspicion.
3. Transitional rather than succession politics
The distinction is important.
In a normal succession, the existing constitutional order remains intact and domestic institutions are expected to conduct elections.
In a transition, the very rules of the political system may be under review. In such cases, a neutral external referee may be invited to help manage the transition.
4. Security concerns
External involvement may be considered where:
➡️Armed groups control parts of the country.
➡️State security forces are viewed as partisan.
➡️Political violence is widespread.
➡️Candidates fear intimidation.
International participation can provide confidence that voters and candidates will not be unfairly disadvantaged.
5. Agreement on minimum democratic guarantees
All major parties would normally need to agree on:
➡️A neutral electoral authority.
➡️Equal media access.
➡️Transparent voter registration.
➡️Transparent vote counting.
➡️Independent dispute resolution.
➡️Acceptance of results certified through an agreed process.
Without such guarantees, even an internationally managed election can be disputed.
6. Constitutional or legal mandate
For international management to be legitimate, there is usually:
➡️Parliamentary approval.
➡️A transitional constitutional framework.
➡️A peace agreement.
➡️A UN Security Council mandate in extreme cases.
Otherwise the arrangement may be viewed as an infringement of sovereignty.
Historical examples
Examples of significant international involvement include:
➡️Namibia (1989) under UN supervision.
➡️Cambodia (1993) under the UN Transitional Authority.
➡️East Timor (1999 and 2001).
➡️Bosnia and Herzegovina after the Dayton Peace Agreement.
➡️Kosovo during its post-conflict transition.

Come on. You cannot seriously believe that the vehicle's safety system is the problem. It is not, and it never will be. The mere possibility that a driver might suffer a heart attack cannot be used as justification for disabling a safety feature designed to save lives. You also cannot bring in the factor that the driver and pedestrian can see each other and both know what is going to happen. It may be a culture in Uganda but not everywhere. Even in Uganda, not everyone does it.
Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking (PAEB), also referred to as Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) with Pedestrian Detection, exists for one reason: to protect pedestrians, who are the most vulnerable road users. These systems are specifically engineered to intervene when a collision is imminent and the driver fails to react in time. Turning them off defeats the very purpose for which they were designed.
I do not know where the vehicle was purchased. If it was bought from an authorised franchise holder and was intended for the Ugandan market, it should have come with a user manual. That manual should clearly explain how the PAEB system operates, including the circumstances under which it activates, its limitations, and the approximate distances at which warnings or braking interventions occur. As a responsible vehicle owner, that is the information you should be seeking so that you can understand the system and drive safely.
If, however, the vehicle was imported through a used-car dealer and the manual is in Japanese or the language of the market for which the vehicle was originally manufactured, then the sensible course of action is still not to switch the system off. Instead, spend some time researching how the technology works. There is a wealth of information available online that can help you understand its capabilities and limitations.
The solution to not understanding a safety system is not to disable it. Just educate yourself about it. Modern vehicle safety technologies have been developed through decades of research, engineering, and real-world crash data to save lives. Before considering switching off a system designed to prevent a pedestrian fatality, make the effort to understand how it works and how to operate the vehicle safely with it enabled. That is the responsible approach.

If you live in Nairobi, you know there are three places where your financial discipline goes to die: Westlands, Karen, and the 500-metre radius around Yaya Centre. Yesterday, at around 4:30 PM, I decided to take a quick walk down Argwings Kodhek Road. My mission was simple: drop off a document, buy two bananas, and head straight back home. Total projected expenditure: Ksh 100 maximum. Confidence 😁💫
Just outside Yaya Centre, an old acquaintance from campus spotted me. Linen shirt tucked into zero-fatigue trousers, driving a clean KD-series SUV, with a smartwatch blinking every three seconds.
"Bwana Barack! It's been ages! Let's grab a quick coffee right here across the road!"
Now, if someone in Kilimani says "quick coffee," run. That is not an invitation for beverage consumption; it is a financial trap.
We walked into one of those high-ceiling cafés where the menu has no currency symbols, just single numbers like 750, 1,200, and 2,400.
Before I could even open my mouth to order ordinary tea with clear hot water, my guy had already summoned the barista.
"Give us two iced hazelnut lattes, extra oat milk, and those almond croissants."😭
For the next 35 minutes, I was subjected to high-level corporate storytelling.
"We just closed a seed funding round in Mauritius."
"I'm thinking of picking up a two-bedroom unit on Chania Avenue for short-stay."
"Kilimani traffic is crazy, but honestly, the lifestyle convenience is unparalleled."
I'm nodding, smiling, and adjusting my posture like a venture capitalist, while secretly, inside my head, my M-Pesa balance of Ksh 1,430 is sweating uncontrollably.
Then comes the moment of truth. The waiter brings the receipt holder: Ksh 3,850.
My billionaire friend reaches for his leather wallet, opens it, looks at his cards, and then checks his phone.
"Ah, boss, system ya bank yangu iko down. Let me just tap my card... wait, declined? Ah, network errors in this spot are wild. Bro, check this for me quickly. I'll M-Pesa you the moment we walk out to the parking."
Guys.
That is how my Ksh 100 banana run turned into a Ksh 3,850 rescue mission.😭😭
As we walked out into the Kilimani evening rain, he stepped into his SUV, waved gracefully, and said, "Legend! Let's do this again next week!"😭
I am currently sitting in my house sipping tap water. If you see me anywhere near Yaya Centre this month, please call the police. I am a victim of Kilimani character development.🤕

Milton Obote is right here when it comes to the POWER OF THE PEOPLE. Perhaps, he could have actually said: "They have the power of God"(beyond giant). After all, is it not"VOX POPULI, VOX DEI"(the voice of the people is the voice of God).
If is that be so, then, THE COLLECTIVE WILL OF THE PEOPLE CARRIES DIVINE AUTHORITY.
Therefore, those who SUBVERT the WILL OF THE PEOPLE CAN NOT claim to LOVE G0D, or be religious. For defying the WILL of the people becomes an ACT OF REBELLION AGAINST DIVINE MANDATE which places that COLLECTIVE WILL beyond mere POLITICAL CHOICE to actual Manifestation on DIVINE TRUTH.
SO BEWARE YE CHRISTIANS!

I am very happy that Museveni and the NRA/M have shown the people of Lango, Teso, Acholi and West Nile the middle finger. They have overwhelmingly, through their dealer leaders, been seeking to be loved, yet they have no shares in this government.
Regional balance is a constitutional requirement (Article 32), not an election reward. But even if they used the vote logic, it fails.
Nationally in 2021, Museveni received 6,042,898 votes (58.38%). The North was his second-biggest regional bloc, delivering 1,164,550 votes (67.95%), behind only Western Uganda's 2,247,737 votes (80.50%).
In 2026, Museveni received 7,946,772 votes (71.65%). He performed even stronger in the North, securing 84% in Acholi, 84.49% in Lango, and strong margins in West Nile. He also dominated Eastern Uganda, winning 15 of 16 sub-regions.
So if this was truly about rewarding national vote contribution, the North, which delivered over a million votes in 2021 and even higher percentages in 2026, should have more seats at those decision making table.
After an election, a democratic government should put all differences aside for the good of the people, ensuring equal and regional balance in all things as mandated by Article 32. But when you look at these numbers and then look at this list, and what's on the ground, you feel sorry for some parts of the country. They can do better
From sausages to Ssabulenya.🙆🏿But wo leaked that letter, where the protagonist was lobbying for that job? After the astitute Senior civil servant A.Tandekwire it was foolhardy to think that he could fit in those shoes.🤭📌
The buck stops with this man. Mr. Adolf Mwesige was once one of the most ranked ministers — until his Road to Damascus at Parliament. As the Accounting Officer, his job was to advise & guide the political leaders, but instead, he oversaw the biggest plunder Uganda has ever seen!
