It was not just us that opposed the sovereignty bill, the BOU Governor Dr. Michael Atingi-Ego noted on April 28th 2026 that; “the law will lead to a substantial depreciation of the Ugandan currency.” On the other hand, fuel prices are skyrocketing, driving up the cost of essential commodities! #KeepingTheGovtInCheck

Patriotism should not be about military training. Leaders must show patriotism by example; don’t be corrupt, respect the constitution, treat citizens right, etc. Leaders must be patriotic, even as they demand the citizens to be patriotic. During the campaigns, young people were brutalised for simply holding the national flag, yet Government is now saying it wants to teach them patriotism! #KeepingTheGovtInCheck

If Gov’t disputes the videos of torture houses, and the disabled Sam Mugumya, we challenge them to produce him and the other abducted people in court and we all see the state in which they are. Abductions, illegal detentions, torture, and violations of the law should be condemned by everyone regardless of political affiliation. #KeepingTheGovtInCheck

Today, one of the reasons Gov’t gave us for the increase in fuel prices was the increase in excise duty on fuel. During the budget process, we told Gov't that an increase in tax on fuel, however small, would be problematic, but they didn’t listen! #KeepingTheGovtInCheck

This morning, the IGG handed over to Parliament the bi-annual performance report of the Inspectorate of Gov’t. Issues of concern include; whether there’s follow up prosecution of people arrested in different parts of the country, failure of which it just becomes showbiz. Additionally, the criteria for prosecuting some suspects while forgiving others is very confusing to the public! #KeepingTheGovtInCheck

Finally, Govt’ has acknowledged that all medical interns require facilitation, and is now going to reinstate the 1m allowance per month to each medical intern. However, going forward, there ought to be a discussion on increasing the 1m, given the rising cost of living and inflation over the years. #KeepingTheGovtInCheck
