Last update: 9 hours ago

TVET & Jobs: Uganda’s TVET Act is being highlighted as part of wider skills reforms across Africa, with five-year trainer funding and stronger private-sector roles, including AI, agriculture and STEM coordination. EACOP Protest Policing: Police arrested 10 anti-EACOP activists in Kampala after marches to Parliament and RR Pearl Tower, with charges of public nuisance. Opposition Health Push: FDC renewed calls for regional cancer centres, arguing government’s decade-old pledge is still unfulfilled and patients must travel to Kampala. Tooro Kingdom Mourning: The remains of King Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV are expected in Uganda Thursday as funeral and succession preparations intensify. Prison Medical Evacuations: Kizza Besigye and Erias Lukwago were evacuated from Luzira for medical care at JCRC, with Prisons saying both are stable. Food & Climate Stress: Lango farmers report crop failure and planting delays as heat and erratic rains worsen food insecurity; government also forecasts near-normal to above-normal El Niño rains by Sep–Dec. Energy & Agriculture Delivery: Government paused new mineral licences for 30 days to curb speculation, and launched fertiliser distribution of 173,913 bags for coffee, tea and cocoa farmers. Digital Skills: MTN Uganda graduated 503 youths from its ACE programme, spotlighting the gap between internet access and usable skills. Ebola Watch (DRC): Congo’s Ebola outbreak passed 6,000 cases with 2,911 deaths, as WHO warns containment remains outpaced.
