Congrats my man Ladit Benson Go shine.💪
Dear @KKariisa , Group CEO,@nextmediaug , Today, I want to say thank you. Thank you for nurturing me, for believing in me, and for trusting me. We have talked about many things over the years, but one conversation stands out: let’s put Northern Uganda on the map. Today, I give you your flowers. You have been more than a boss. Wherever my journey takes me, I will always be a Transformer. To the many of you who mentored me, thank you. Madam Goretti, @Imokola , @joycebagala1 , @DaltonKaweesa @PayiraBonnie: you believed in my talent before the world knew my name, and you pushed me every single day. I am deeply grateful. As I transition into corporate and development communication with @NUSAFIV and @OPMUganda , a lot has been said. My clarity is in the video below. As I bow out of the newsroom, I am proud to share that this year I founded @fourthhub_ug in Gulu, one of the biggest media and creative hubs in the region. Under the leadership of our team lead, @OjokOkot_ , this dream has been a long time coming, and finally, Northern Uganda has its first creative hub. Thank you all for the warm wishes and the love on social media. I humbly appreciate every one of you. To my @NBSBreakingNews family, @SimonKaggwaNjal @ShamNabakooza @SamsonMKasumba @CanaryMugume @TusiimeSheila @HakimKanyere @HakiimsWampamba @OmagorJoseph @ObadiaOtim @poshaaloyo @RonnieMcVex and many more, thank you.

One of the major causes of poor service delivery in Uganda today is leadership driven by selfish interests rather than a genuine commitment to serving the people. Hon. Ann Ruyondo Lumumba Todwong represents a different kind of leadership- one rooted in passion to serve, empowerment and putting people first. #Ann4National Chairperson of the National Women’s Council. #WomenEmpowerment #TeamAnn

Thank you to @JamesCopnall and the @BBC team for hosting me. In case you missed it, here's my conversation with #TheInterviewBBC where I speak about bridging the gap between international politics and the needs of local people around the world. “I do not want the United Nations of New York, Geneva or Vienna to be an ivory tower, a diplomatic ivory tower. I want to see the UN not of power and privilege, but the UN of service and impact. That is the UN I want to see" bbc.com/audio/play/w3ct8klv #OlaraOtunnu4UNSG #NextSG
