𝐏𝐌 𝐍𝐚𝐛𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐣𝐚 𝐀𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐎𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟑𝟏 The Rt. Hon. Robinah Nabbanja, Prime Minister of Uganda, has announced that the fourth National Cleaning Day will take place on Saturday, October 31, 2026, from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., with activities conducted simultaneously across the country. The Prime Minister conveyed President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni’s greetings and commended Ugandans, local governments, security agencies, businesses and other stakeholders for supporting the initiative to promote sanitation, environmental protection and public health. Hoima City has been designated the national cleaning site in recognition of its role as a host city for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations. However, the exercise will cover the entire country, with all districts, cities, municipalities, town councils, parishes and villages expected to participate. Rt. Hon. Nabbanja urged local government leaders to mobilise communities and ensure the availability of cleaning equipment, waste collection services and proper disposal facilities. She highlighted roadsides, markets, drainage channels, schools, health facilities, workplaces and other public spaces as priority areas. She also called on households, institutions and businesses to adopt responsible waste management practices, including proper waste disposal and avoiding littering. Movement restrictions will apply to motor vehicles, motorcycles and pedestrians during the designated hours, subject to specified exemptions for essential services and other authorised categories. The public was urged to follow official guidance and plan accordingly. The Prime Minister emphasised that National Cleaning Day is not merely about cleaning for three hours, but about establishing cleanliness and environmental responsibility as everyday practices. She called on all Ugandans to participate on October 31 and maintain clean surroundings throughout the month. @OPMUganda #OpenGovUg
