I my not agree with M7 but I have respect for him for mastering the art of keeping stability but I pray he should not overstretch it.


I guess they have realized the importance of humility. His holiness has demonstrated it in a very succinct manner. Why should their citizens die in numbers due to their uncompromising stance. Let's pray for peace in S.Sudan.

My sympathies and condolences for the loss of your dear mother. May her soul rest in eternal peace.Amen.

I have just lost my mother who single handedly raised the five of us. She sacrificed everything to ensure we got the best in life. She has been ill for one year till today a few minutes ago when she breathed her last. REST IN PEACE



Where was the police. Total contravention of Uganda's laws. I demand the police to take immediate action.

Am concerned about a junior police officer confronting a General and a diplomat in a traffic related offence yet police vehicles always drive on the wrong side of the road. A General is arrested by a General. PERIOD!!

PHONE VIDEO: Retired Major General Matayo Kyaligonza and his bodyguards assault a female traffic officer. #NTVNews



This is wonderful but the timeline has to be set. With immediate effect, two months,three,four or forever???

By the end of our engagement, we resolved on a number of issues but I would like to highlight three; 1.The cost of electricity for manufacturing that is currently at 8cents per unit will be reduced to 5cents for big, medium and small enterprises.

We dearly love our country Uganda. QAny endeavour to bring stability, peace,harmony and prosperity for all must be supported by everyone. Congratulations to M7 and national dialogue committee as we eagerly await for the outcome.

The Uganda National Dialogue is a space that should be embraced by all citizens; to pave way for a more peaceful, prosperous country with happy people. @ckaheru @KigoziMaggie @IpodUganda @irc_uganda @LillianAber @JosephSerwadda @mollykamukama @RuhakanaR @OfwonoOpondo @norbertmao



Hon. Minister kassija the most reasonable question you should ask is; dose the foreign investment have backward and forward linkages in the economy to spur growth and development. Investment should add value and market to our raw materials & offer services

Kasaija "threatens" to institute a system where the first question he will ask foreign investors; "How many jobs are you going to create?" #NTVSummit18

I thought the PM Rugunda is the chief minister and leader of govt business. How can he lead a sub committee of cabinet? This is poor style of leadership.He should assign a team of ministers led by the line minister the task. My thought.


My heart goes to the family of the departed souls and pray the Almighty God comforts them at this time of sorrow. Call upon the police to investigate this very sad incident because there are claims of negligence on the part of management. MTSRIP.


Do we have election Commission worth it's name if they can disqualify a candidate basing on discrepancy in the order of names without verifying information given on the National ID. SAD!!!

UPDATE: The Joint Opposition candidate for Busia District Chairman Mr Deo Hasubi Njoki has been disqualified because he has 3 names on his National ID, yet the electoral commission register has 2. #NTVNews ntv.co.ug/live

This a very good memorial pictures General. I advise you to improve on the last sentence because we are in a healing mode.The word we destroyed westnile bank front can be stated differently but carrying the same meaning. Otherwise I miss my bro. Gen Aronda

Pics from the past. Generals Salim Saleh, Mugisha Muntu, Aronda Nyakairima (then a Brigadier) and Katumba Wamala (then a Colonel) during Operation Mwisho II in 1998. This is when the UPDF surged into Southern Sudan and destroyed the West Nile Bank Front of Juma Oris.

Mr President there is what is called human capital that can be built through specialized training. Chinese built theirs, we can also build ours. Malaysia built theirs in less than 30years. Let's not surrender to foreign domination

In my Economics class at high school, I learnt about the 4 factors of production; land, labour, capital and entrepreneurship. While Uganda has natural resources & affordable labour, we don't have much capital nor entrepreneurs. This is where partnership with China comes in handy.

Congratulations to Hon Raila Odinga for his new appointment by AU as High Representative for Africa infrastructure development. This is good news for Panafrican Parliament. Looking forward to working with him and gaining from his vast experience.


I thought the committees of parliament have delegated powers of parliament. The committees have powers to recommend, direct,demand,detain,order without recourse to the speaker.

Speaker of Parliament Rebecca Kadaga has ordered parliamentary committees not to issue directives to government agencies without consulting her office. #NTVNews bit.ly/2G69keT?utm_me…

Lawyer Ladislaus Kiiza Rwakafuuzi says the enactment of the Constitution Amendment Act was legislation at gun point and that it was very clear that before the military entered Parliament, there was no violence #AgeLimitPetition


I thought executive proposes the law, parliament makes the law and the courts implements the law. Any inconsistencies can be addressed in the courts . AG is the legal adviser of gov't not the supreme court.

Jacob Oboth Oboth, the Chairperson of Parliament’s Legal Affairs Committee, says the president should always seek legal advise from the Supreme Court before assenting to laws passed by parliament 3NTVNews



The curtain of death has been raised behind the aphathied icon Winnie Mandela. Memories of her struggles against aphathied are still fresh in our minds. Her struggles were never invain.We miss you and will always miss you .Amanda!! RIP
