Society and those at the top of the political economy food chain certainly benefit from enforcing strict moral codes and ideas of what and how professionals should look and behave like. @JSSOZI @PrimahKwagala

We shall know them by the length of their convoy.. 😂
"....The presidential convoy is the most public revelation of a president’s sense of his/her power, state of mind, and insecurities. There was the Xi Jinping Standard: At home, Jinping’s convoy is on average 10 cars.
Now the world’s second-largest economy, and Africa’s all-season Father Christmas, it was felt that in normal circumstances no reasonable president should have a convoy longer than Jinping’s to drive on roads built by Chinese money and engineers. Once a president surpasses Jinping’s 10 cars, then he is placed in the “amber zone”....@cobbo3 writes.

Excellent presentation Dr. Katumusiime @Mwine_Kyarimpa! I really enjoyed the conversation. And I must say, I really liked how your work mobilizes sensibility about Palestine - if we care to make those connections.
Dr. @Mwine_Kyarimpa,
We are very ecstatic to rally all of the troops wherever they may be to provide you our full support this afternoon, as you face off with your Ph.D. Defense Committee. We have every confidence you will succeed beyond our wildest expectations!
@thesword_08
So, is this an incentive mechanism to make up for potholes?
Btw this ignorance has persisted, let us provide some education. These posh cars, which dont exceed 5 in number, are driven by foreign defence contractors not our usual Ugandan officials. If you have some clever you will understand why. Goodday.

I’m quite used to the cruelty students can face when they apply for a US visa but this one broke me. We offered admission to a stellar, talented & hardworking student. After months of work and hundreds of dollars, an embassy officer saw him for 5 mins & said no. why? …
The M in Electoral DeMocracy stands for “Money”!

Who is going to correct this #misinformation?
The @MinofHealthUG should condemn this malice because it has health implications.

Shame! Why do countries still do this?
Holding visa applicants’ passports for weeks before visa decision is made is extremely inconveniencing and risky! EU countries and others should learn from the @usmissionuganda.
Replying to @wasilalitaha @irmavandueren
Dear Wasila, we deeply regret the current situation you're in. We were forced to close the embassy and evacuate our staff. Unfortunately, this means we can't get to your passport. We advise to apply for a new passport with your local authorities.
