Ahead of World Malaria Day, yesterday I held a multi-sectoral meeting with the Parliamentary Forum on Malaria (UPFM) to breathe new life into the fight against one of the leading killer diseases.

We were also privileged to host Prof. Steve Harvey from Johns Hopkins University,

The Consultation of Busoga Subregion, on the way-forward for the FDC Party and it’s aspirations, was held on Saturday 30th March 2024, in Jinja West Constituency. A Busoga resolution was made. The national decision will be a majority view of the various subregional resolutions.

This is Bugongi HealthCentre III. Thank you UMRMCHIP for constructing a wonderful facility in such a hard-to-reach area of Kinkizi East. However, the maternity is not functioning. They are limited by an autoclave. ⁦DR. CHRIS BARYOMUNSI⁩ sterilizing equipment instead of mattress

⁦Ministry of Health- Uganda⁩ Tumwine Alifonse was deployed at Mparo HC IV as public health dental officer, 6 years ago. He found NO dental tools at the facility but used his personal money and bought so that he could work. Relatedly, the autoclave is down. My guess is as good as that.

⁦Ministry of Health- Uganda⁩ how can you offer in patient and maternity services; with only 1 ward of three beds? I see politics in health service delivery. This facility that neighbors Dr. Kiiza Besigye is considered a HealthCentre III yet it has structures of HC II since 2008. ⁦

I have done oversight on this facility in Rukiga district, and noticed that the President commissioned its theater whose finished structure didn’t have a recovery room. Sadly, it’s 20 years but all the same they are Happy. ⁦Ministry of Health- Uganda⁩; carefully apply the word THEATER

Until we start extracting the mineral wealth from the underneath; Uganda’s budget will always present 2 competing priorities.

1) To pay debts.

2) To borrow.
