"title": "Health: Uganda becomes East Africa's hub for virus detection",
"body": "KAMPALA - Uganda has strengthened its regional leadership in infectious disease surveillance after the Uganda Virus Research Institute (UVRI) was officially designated the East African Community (EAC) Regional Centre of Excellence in Virology.\n\nThe Centre, launched in Entebbe on Wednesday, July 22, will serve as the region's hub for advanced virology research, specialised laboratory training, disease surveillance, diagnostics and knowledge sharing, supporting Partner States in responding to public health threats such as Ebola, Marburg and other emerging and re-emerging viral diseases.\n\nThe launch was officiated by Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja, who represented President Yoweri Museveni during celebrations marking UVRI's 90th anniversary.\n\nNabbanja said the designation places greater responsibility on Uganda and the region to strengthen health security amid evolving disease threats.\n\n\"The world is changing rapidly alongside evolving health demands and policies. Through this journey, we have seen and learnt that a nation that studies its own pathogens is a self-reliant nation. We commit to increasing funding for research,\" she said.\n\nShe noted that the Centre would not only benefit Uganda but also strengthen regional collaboration in responding to disease outbreaks that easily spread across borders.\n\nThe regional centre of excellence in virology is one of seven specialised regional medical diagnostic centres of excellence established under the EAC Health Investment Priority Framework (2018-2028), which was endorsed by the 19th Summit of EAC Heads of State.\n\nDuring the launch, EAC Deputy Secretary General in charge of Infrastructure, Productive, Social and Political Sectors, Andrea Ariik, said the facility would ensure that scientific expertise developed in one country benefits the entire region.\n\n\"An EAC Regional Centre of Excellence is a specialised institution recognised by the Community to provide advanced expertise, research, training, innovation and technical support in an area of regional importance. These Centres ensure that scientific knowledge and specialised capabilities developed in one Partner State become a shared regional resource benefiting all East Africans,\" he said.\n\nAriik added that Uganda earned the designation because of UVRI's decades-long contribution to virus research, disease surveillance and outbreak response, adding that the institute has built an international reputation in virology.\n\nAriik added that the Centre will further strengthen the EAC's One Health approach by promoting collaboration across human, animal and environmental health sectors to address emerging infectious disease threats.\n\nThe First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for East African Community Affairs, Rebecca Alitwala Kadaga, said the Centre comes at a critical time when the region continues to face threats from infectious diseases.\n\n\"The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated that diseases do not respect borders, and an outbreak emerging in one Partner State can quickly become a regional concern,\" Kadaga said.\n\nShe noted that while EAC countries have made significant progress in strengthening laboratory systems, differences in technical capacity, expertise and resources remain.\n\n\"The operationalisation of Regional Centres of Excellence provides a mechanism for Partner States to share specialised knowledge, strengthen scientific collaboration and improve collective preparedness and response,\" she added.\n\nThe operationalisation of the centre has been supported through the EAC Regional Network of Reference Laboratories for Communicable Diseases Project with funding from the Government of Germany through KfW Development Bank and technical support from the Bernhard Nocht Institute for Tropical Medicine.\n\nTo UVRI Director Prof. Pontiano Kaleebu, the institute would use its new regional role to strengthen laboratory networks and scientific collaboration across East Africa.\n\n\"As a regional hub, UVRI will support advanced virology research, specialised laboratory training, diagnostics, surveillance and knowledge sharing across the EAC region,\" Kaleebu said.\n\nHe explained that the Centre will improve the ability of Partner States to detect, confirm and respond to viral diseases through stronger laboratory systems and coordinated scientific expertise.\n\nKaleebu reported that UVRI already plays a critical regional role by confirming samples referred from neighbouring countries before disease outbreaks are officially declared, ensuring public health decisions are based on scientific evidence.\n\nThe centre builds on achievements made under the EAC Regional Network of Reference Laboratories for communicable diseases project through the EAC Mobile Laboratory Network, established in 2017.\n\nLaboratory turnaround time for detecting dangerous viral diseases has been reduced from approximately 72 hours to just eight hours, allowing health authorities to make faster decisions during outbreaks.",

"title": "Uganda Railways boss Kajuna on spot as 394 wagons worth Shs 220bn 'disappear' - The Observer Media Ltd",
"body": "Parliament has directed Benon Kajuna, managing director of the Uganda Railways Corporation (URC), to record a statement with the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (CID) over the disappearance of 394 railway wagons valued at over Shs 220.8 billion.\n\nThe directive, issued on July 23, 2026, followed a heated meeting of parliament's physical infrastructure committee, which expressed dissatisfaction with the corporation's explanation regarding the missing wagons.\n\nThe committee, chaired by Mbarara City South MP Mwine Mpaka, ordered URC to produce evidence within one hour showing joint efforts with Kenya Railways Corporation to trace the missing wagons. However, the documents presented reportedly contained no confirmation from the Kenyan side on the whereabouts of the rolling stock.\n\n\"The assumption is they are in Kenya, but there is also an assumption that some are sold in Uganda,\" Mpaka stated. \"The managing director is going to go and record a statement at police, and if he does not provide evidence within a week, the next time he reports, then we shall officially open the fire regarding the disappearance of the wagons.\"\n\nThe matter stems from the Auditor General's December 2025 report, which highlighted serious weaknesses in URC's asset management and verification systems. The report found that by November 2024, URC could not physically account for 131 of its own wagons. Although 18 were later traced, 113 remained missing.\n\nIn addition, all 281 Kenya Railways Corporation wagons that were under URC's custody could not be accounted for, bringing the total number of missing wagons to 394. Budiope County MP Eng. Ssebbugga Kimeze warned that the disappearance of Kenyan railway assets could strain relations between the two neighbouring countries.\n\n\"As if that is not enough, we actually lost 281 wagons for the Kenyan railways. Property belonging to a neighbouring country goes missing here. In fact, it is stolen by our own thieves here. This is going to cause us a diplomatic problem one of these days.\"\n\nBatoro County MP Emmanuel Ilukol said each wagon is valued at about $150,000, meaning taxpayers stand to bear losses running into tens of billions of shillings.\n\nHe urged the committee to involve the State House Anti-Corruption Unit in the investigations.\n\n\"It seems we are taking it lightly. Up to when must we burden the taxpayer for acts of people that are not accountable for their jobs?\"\n\nKajuna, who took office in early 2025, told the committee that tracing railway wagons is a complex process involving continuous verification and bilateral engagement with Kenya Railways.\n\nHe said URC and Kenya Railways had established joint committees and held regular meetings to resolve the matter, adding that documentary evidence of those engagements had been submitted. Members of parliament, however, remained unconvinced.\n\n\"We don't know whether they were stolen, we don't know whether they have been sold, we don't know whether they are in Kenya. Wagons cannot just be stated to have disappeared. They are supposed to have wagon numbers, identification numbers, traceability of their locations,\" said Kole North MP Samuel Opio.\n\nThe missing wagons have raised concerns over weaknesses in URC's inventory management systems, security at railway yards and sidings, and cross-border asset tracking arrangements between Uganda and Kenya.\n\nRailway wagons are a critical component of Uganda's freight transport network, facilitating the movement of imports and exports along the Northern Corridor through the metre-gauge railway linking Uganda to the Port of Mombasa.",

"title": "Uganda declares mandatory National Cleaning Day - The Observer Media Ltd",
"body": "The government has declared the last Saturday of every month a mandatory National Cleaning Day, during which all Ugandans will be required to participate in community clean-up activities as part of efforts to improve sanitation and prevent disease outbreaks.\n\nThe three-hour exercise will run from 7:00 am to 10:00 am, with non-essential movement prohibited, businesses closed and only emergency and security vehicles permitted on the roads.\n\nPrime Minister Robinah Nabbanja announced the initiative at the Office of the Prime Minister in Kampala, alongside officials from the ministries of Health and Local Government, Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA), the Uganda Police Force and the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA).\n\nNabbanja said the initiative stems from a Cabinet resolution passed on August 11, 2025, during a meeting chaired by President Yoweri Museveni, which approved the establishment of a nationwide public cleaning day.\n\nShe said poor sanitation and hygiene account for approximately 75 per cent of diseases reported in the country, citing malaria, diarrhoea and typhoid among the most common illnesses linked to unhygienic environments.\n\nUsing Kampala as an example, Nabbanja said the city generates between 2,000 and 2,500 tonnes of solid waste daily, yet only 50 to 60 per cent is collected and properly disposed of.\n\nShe said the uncollected waste blocks drainage channels, pollutes the environment and increases the risk of disease outbreaks. Quoting ministry of Health statistics, Nabbanja said about 33 children die every day from diseases associated with poor sanitation and hygiene.\n\nShe said the initiative is also anchored in Article 39 of the Constitution, which guarantees every Ugandan the right to a clean and healthy environment while placing a duty on citizens to protect it.\n\n\"The National Cleaning Day initiative will run from 7:00 am to 10:00 am on the last Saturday of every month. During this period, all Ugandans are expected to participate in organised cleaning activities within their communities, including roads, health facilities, drainage systems, markets, places of worship, schools and other public places,\" Nabbanja said.\n\nShe added that unnecessary movement of people and vehicles will be prohibited during the exercise, while businesses will be required to remain closed throughout the three-hour period.\n\nNabbanja directed all local governments to spearhead community mobilisation and identify priority areas requiring clean-up.\n\nShe said detailed implementation guidelines will be issued following the official launch of the programme this Saturday, July 25, at Kisenyi in Mengo, which will be officiated by Vice President Jessica Alupo.\n\nHealth minister Dr Chris Baryomunsi urged Ugandans to embrace the initiative, saying improved sanitation is essential for public health. Responding to concerns raised by members of the Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) Church, whose day of worship falls on Saturday, Baryomunsi said the timing of the exercise had been deliberately set in the early morning to minimise disruption.\n\n\"We have deliberately set these early hours of the day to enable people to carry out their other activities later. Secondly, we are not meant to offend any of the beliefs of Ugandans. But I also want to ask, do SDA members also fall sick on Saturday? Let me quote the words of Jesus in the Bible. He said you can rescue your cow or sheep immediately when it falls into a pit. So let us all participate as much as possible,\" Baryomunsi said.\n\nDeputy Inspector General of Police (IGP) James Ochaya said the police are prepared to enforce compliance with the directive, adding that the force has the experience and capacity to implement the restrictions, drawing on lessons learnt during enforcement of Covid-19 measures.\n\nNabbanja said President Museveni had directed the police and other security agencies to ensure strict compliance with the monthly exercise, which will be conducted under the theme, \"A Clean Uganda is Everybody's Business.\"",

"body": "Kampala, Uganda | URN | The government has declared the last Saturday of every month as National Cleaning Day. The mandatory three-hour exercise will require all Ugandans to participate, with no vehicles allowed on the roads and all businesses closed during the period.\n\nPrime Minister Robinah Nabbanja announced the National Cleaning Initiative at the Office of the Prime Minister. The announcement was made alongside officials from the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Local Government, Kampala Capital City Authority, Uganda Police Force, and the National Environment Management Authority at her office in Kampala this afternoon.\n\nAccording to Nabbanja, 75% of diseases in the country are spread as a result of poor sanitation and hygiene. The cabinet, thus, during its sitting on 11th August 2025 chaired by President Yoweri Museveni, approved a public day for general cleaning nationwide, which they now agreed to implement.\n\nShe said diseases like malaria, diarrhoea, and typhoid are directly attributed to poor sanitation and environmental hazards. She cited Kampala as an example, where 2,000 to 25,000 tonnes of solid waste are produced daily, yet only 50-60 percent is collected and disposed of. She said the remaining waste blocks drainage channels, pollutes the environment, and heightens the risk of disease outbreaks.\n\nFrom reports by the Ministry of Health, Nabbanja said about 33 children die daily from diseases caused by poor sanitation, and hygiene. Citing Article 39 of the Constitution on the right and duty to a clean environment. Cabinet approved the National Cleaning Day initiative in response to the statistics.\n\n\"The National Cleaning Day initiative will run from 7:00 am to 10:00 am on the last Saturday of every month. During this period, all Ugandans are expected to participate in organized cleaning activities within their communities, including roads, health facilities, drainage systems, markets, places of worship, schools, and other public places,\" Nabbanja said.\n\nShe also announced that all unnecessary movement of people and motorists will be prohibited during the three-hour period, except for emergency and security vehicles. All members of the public are prohibited from unnecessary movement, vehicles and no businesses are allowed to be open during the three hours.\n\nNabbanja has directed all local governments, to take the lead in mobilizing communities and identifying critical areas that need cleaning. She also said new guidelines will be issued following the official launch on the 25th at Kisenyi, Mengo, to be presided over by the Vice President\n\nDr. Chris Baryomunsi, Minister of Health, urged Ugandans to take up the initiative without resistance, saying good health is a requirement for everyone. He also responded to concerns raised by Seventh-day Adventists, noting that their day of worship falls on Saturday.\n\n\"We have deliberately set these early hours of the day to enable people to carry out their other activities later. Secondly, we are not meant to offend any of the beliefs of Ugandans. But I also want to ask, do SDA members also fall sick on Saturday? let me quote the words of Jesus in the bible. He said you can rescue your cow or sheep immediately when it falls into a pit. So let us all participate as much as possible,\" Baryomunsi said.\n\nDeputy Inspector General of Police James Ochaya said police are ready to handle violators on the roads. He added that the Force has the capacity to enforce the National Cleaning Day initiative, based on how they enforced Covid-19 restrictions.\n\nNabbanja noted that the President has Uganda Police Force and other sister security agencies to be deployed on roads to strictly enforce compliance with the National Cleaning Day that will be conducted under the theme \"A Clean Uganda is Everybody's Business.\"",

"body": "NEW YORK - Four women and two men are in the running to succeed Antonio Guterres as leader of the United Nations, which faces unprecedented global instability, wars and its own crushing budget crisis.\n\nObservers say it is difficult to pick a favorite, given that the world's major powers are divided on the outcome, but Argentina's Rafael Grossi -- the current head of the UN nuclear watchdog -- has been repeatedly mentioned.\n\nGrossi is a candidate along with Chile's Michelle Bachelet, Ecuador's Maria Fernanda Espinosa, Costa Rica's Rebeca Grynspan, Guyana's Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett and Senegal's Macky Sall.\n\nEven if one candidate gets the required nine votes on the 15-member Security Council -- which chooses the future UN chief before submitting the name for approval by the General Assembly -- that candidate must also avoid a veto.\n\nThe United States, Britain, China, France and Russia thus have the future of the world body in their hands.\n\nHere is a look at the contenders:\n\nMichelle Bachelet\n\nA Chilean socialist brutally tortured by the regime of Augusto Pinochet, Bachelet became her country's first woman president in 2006.\n\nShe went on to be the UN rights chief, a sensitive role in which she alienated some countries, especially China, which mauled her for reporting on Beijing's alleged abuses of the country's Uyghur minority group.\n\nBachelet, 74, has said the UN secretary-general should have the \"moral voice\" to lead, even under pressure from major powers.\n\nShe is backed by Mexico and Brazil -- but Chile withdrew its support after far-right President Jose Antonio Kast took office. The United States has criticised her, especially on her support for abortion rights.",
