AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Water Safety Crackdown: Uganda is stepping up anti-drowning measures with stricter enforcement, community training, warning signs and barriers at high-risk water points, and faster Marine Police response times (aiming for about 20 minutes), as officials warn adults aged 20–29 are most at risk and cite alcohol, negligence, and unsafe vessels. Political Abduction: The whereabouts of Radio Simba political commentator Charles Rwomushana and NRM supporter Ivan Mwijukye remain unknown after armed men seized them from a talk show and a bus stop, with police yet to issue clear details. Tooro Mourning: King Oyo’s body has returned to Uganda and is being received and transported for a nine-day public mourning period at Karuziika Palace, with President Museveni and senior leaders attending. Land Administration Legal Fight: Lawyers and MPs question the legality of Lands minister Judith Nabakooba’s three-month suspension of special certificates of title, arguing it may conflict with statutory processes. Domestic Tourism Push: UWA will offer free access to seven national parks from 25–27 September to boost local travel ahead of World Tourism Day. Ebola Update: Uganda’s Ebola response is highlighted as fast and coordinated, with the country declared Ebola-free after 42 days without cases. Migration Snapshot: Uganda is cited as a major IGAD destination and transit country, with non-residents dominating border crossings in 2022. Clean Cooking Finance: Carbon credit-backed clean cookstoves are expanding across Africa as a way to cut household smoke and deaths, with Uganda among countries developing related rules. Fraud Warning: A new warning flags Ponzi schemes draining Ugandans’ savings, urging people to invest through credible channels.
