AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Succession Politics: Uganda’s military chief Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba has formally declared he will run for president in 2031, claiming he will win with “Mzee” Museveni’s support and predicting a landslide—deepening the already tense succession debate. Public Health: Uganda has been declared Ebola-free after 42 days without a new confirmed case, but the UN chief says DR Congo’s outbreak is spreading faster than containment, keeping regional risk high. Traditional Authority: Tooro Kingdom says King Oyo is alive but critically ill, urging calm and warning against rumours. Parliament & Health Funding: Parliament has deposited Shs3bn toward the Rotary Cancer Run and the St. Francis Hospital cancer centre, adding to a long-running cancer financing push. Governance & Accountability: A parliamentary probe into digital number plates and the Intelligent Transport Monitoring System was delayed after line ministries asked for more time to coordinate responses. Digital Connectivity: MTN Uganda and Starlink are expanding satellite-enabled connectivity for enterprises in remote areas. Security & Justice: Police arrested “Don Chris” over an alleged fake overseas jobs scam, with claims involving hundreds of victims and up to Shs1.75bn.
