Stop using Covid19 saga to promote hatred and rumours that can incite violence and panick

Beware of this you post on social media,if it is to spread rumours;promote hatred,and misguiding citzens!!! You have the right to belong to any political affiliation but you will never have any right to disturb people's  peace.I know some of you just want to make the public hear that so and so has been arrested!Yes you will be arrested because  you are a problem! Covid19 will not know whether you are People power;FDC,NRM,DP...it will not even know whether you are Bobi wine,Besigye, and even it will not know whether it is Exellence Museveni!Do you think president Museveni sleeps well amid this terrible time?Have you ever seen him on media this many times? ??please atleast if you hate gorvenment why can't  you love ugandans??? !!we all need to enmass our efforts to fight it.I know some of you want to hear that cases are in mbarara,kabale,arua ,kotido...and you start  your dangerous rumours!!!!!...

Let me tell you;if one of your relatives had contracted it am sure that you won't  be posting this bogus!!!
Stop this nonsense;otherwise  i assure you that you will be delt with mercilessly!!!!!

Actually; African countries must tighten the policies to curb thus covid19.i Do not  see how you comparevus with Italy. .These people have good medical services;they are rich,while they can lockdown their countries;they can be able to supply services to them for a long time.And you want the gorvenment  to allow movements and spread it all over  tha country??? How many people in uganda have tapped water inside their compounds???How many can have food stores that can run for over 3months.I actually beg the gorvenment to be extra vigilant!!!Imagine if italy was Uganda;we would all be dead...why do you want people to move and spread the disease??? I HAVE HEARD EVEN PEOPLE OF CHURCHES SAYING TANZANIA ALLOWED PRAYERS IN CHURCHES?HAVEN'T  I HEARD YOU PASTORS PERFORMOPERFORMING MIRACLES OF RAISING THE DEAD,RAISING THE DEAD AND PRAYING THAT COVID19 GOES;WHICH IS EASY??? AND PLEASE ,PLEASE ...DO NOT GO LYING..MUSEVENI HAS NOT ORDERED TO SHOOT AT PEOPLE PRAYING IN THEIR HOMES,SO LONGER YOU DO IT IN ACCORDANCE TO DIRECTIVES;IT IS OK..BUT DO NOT CALL THE WHOLE VILLAGE IN YOU HOUSE???

These are the social media accounts where you get update news on covid19;Be aware of fake social media accounts

As i had earlier discovered -some malicious people are on a rampage of creating rogue social media acounts to spread rumours,malice our officials  and to seek dubious attention from public.
Here i present you screenshots ofvreal accounts where you can get true information.You can easily know a real account by looking at the followers;or individuals  whom the official follows;tweets or post he/she makes!!!

The above are twitter accounts that  can give you real information on covi19 here in uganda.

The above are the facebook accounts you can visit to get updates on covid19

As i earlier complained;some malicious people are using all means especially on social media to seek attention and create  tension and panick .For example someone used minister acheng's name and photo create an instgram account claiming that people can get updates and info from the account..but thank God that minister Acheng has made it clear that she does not have any instagram account.

Even the president's senior press secretary,Don wanyama has been a victim to this malice; where a tweet showed him presenting some information. ..but he also came out clear to show that it is fake.

I call upon UCC to dig deep into this issue and close some of these social media accounts that try to spread false information. .you know their phone numbers or you can trace their phone numbers and have them cleared off communication  networks. And UCC remember  and note it carefully  that there are many things not fully ok with some registeration of simcards..

For God and my country

one of the 2nd division vehicle hit by a stone thrown by malicious goons as they defied the presidential directives on the guard against the spread of covid19

Rouge and malicious  elements in kisoro have gotten to a vice of pelleting stones onto patrol vehicles meant to oversee how the directives are being followed by citzens.There are a series of such acts that have been done by a group of youth here in kisoro especially like setting a blaze the NRM office,the various incidents at that katimba market ,and others which  suspiciously had been engineered by some youth and other elements sponsored by some anti gorvenment groups and we know it very well that case like the setting  ablaze of the NRM office and some incident at katimba market were engineered by some bad elements inside kisoro,outside kisoro and accross  some of our border!The fact is that people in kisoro cannot independently plan and do some of such acts.
Lt.col Bataringaya the 35th battalion commander in Kisoro district said that the locals have resorted to stoning their patrol teams especially in the night hours as that on Monday last week a pick up belonging to Kisoro municipal council was stoned and it's windscreen broken, on Tuesday one of the Uganda peoples defense forces solidier while on patrol was injured on the head and that on Easter Sunday night his offical command vehicle registration number DO2DF103 was also stoned and windscreen broken.
"People have resorted on stoning our patrol teams especially during night hours On Monday last week a pick up belonging to Kisoro municipality was stoned smashing the wind screen On Tuesday one of our patrol soldiers was injured on the head Last night the my Command vehicle was stoned breaking the wind screen this must stop if not those doing it the outcome will not be good for them if they are caught we can't be intimidated we have to implement the presidents directives".said Lt.Col.Bataringaya.
Lt.Col. Bataringaya says that such acts of attacking the soildiers must stop as the out come of the attacks will not be good to them if the soildiers try to defend themselves.
Captain Peter Mugisha the Kisoro RDC says that there have been reports in areas of Russia in kisoro hill village kisoro municipality,Nyakabaya trading centre in Gasovu parish Nyarusiza sub country ,Gasenyi trading centre in Gasovu and at mubuga primary school where some youth were found playing football as when police tried to stop them they begun fighting the police officer in the process one was shot in the leg.
Captain Mugisha says this must stop as no amount of intimidation is going to stop them from enforcing the presidents directives .
Johnson Ahishakiye the Nyakinama sub county chief says that on Monday during an operation over 40 people were rounded up in bars as among them being teachers.
it is impressing that Ahishakiye has decided to actively fight these goons by sleeping at his work place-
"I have decided to respect the presidential directives of sleeping at our palces of work " said Ahishakiye.

This is the message that is trying to use minister Acheng,s email to run a malware!!!

There are still some numbers that are sending verification codes on behalf of GOOGLE.once someone set a security code to be sent to his phone number before he or she logs to her account,this 2FA code is suppossed to be sent by Google but not a a mobile phone number from Uganda.If such a number can hijack a message from google or yahoo then it means he or she can easily log into your account.Remember that one of the login ids is your phone number..and if the scammer or the hacker is able to send a message to your phone number ,then he or she can use the same phone number and account's verification code sent to enter your account.It means that ,they are still some malicious people here using simcard boxing!!There are other IP adresses that try to take over people accounts and these IP adresses are a range of IP addresses managed or owned by one telecom company here in Uganda! I have a proof,even yesterday soem phone number tried to send 2FA code on behalf of google.If such a number can send verification messages in behalf of google,then such a number has the ability to get all messages sent to you more notably ,messages from western union,paypal,bank accounts connected to our mobile money..etc.I advice some groups of people and public figures like our minister to always tighten the security of their social media accounts and mails .Yesterday an MTN number as sent a 2FA code to a phone number on behalf of google and for my reasons am not going to present the number here but to people i trust and all who love the security of our people ,you can and know how to get to my inbox!I started noticing and investigating this thing from late 2016 up to day and i have a list of very many phone numbers that were involved in sending such 2FA codes on behalf of google,facebook,instagram,yahoo!Please take this serious and secure our people!!

Russia’s Aerospace Forces will begin taking delivery of the new Beriev A-100 AEW&C planes in 2024

Russia’s Aerospace Forces will begin taking delivery of the new Beriev A-100 AEW&C planes in 2024, a source in Russia’s military industry said. “Testing is proceeding as scheduled,” the source said.
The A-100, christened by aircraft enthusiasts as the ‘Flying Radar’, is Russia’s next-generation airborne early warning aircraft, and is expected to complement and eventually replace the existing 20 or so Beriev A-50 and A-50U Shmel (‘Bumblebee’) AEW planes in the Aerospace Forces’ inventory today.
Built on the basis of an Il-76MD-90A strategic airlifter with improved turbofan engines, the planes will be equipped with a cutting-edge Vega ‘Premier’ active phased array radar, with the rotating dome design mounted on struts over the plane’s fuselage.

A Beriev A-50
The aircraft are expected to be able to detect and track as many as 300 air, sea and ground-based targets simultaneously at distances up to 650 km away. They are also expected to be able to assist in the operation of drones, and serve as a mobile airborne command and communications post. In addition to its primary radar, the plane will be able to interact with and receive information from space-based satellites.

Russia retains the number two spot after the United States amid the world’s top weapons exporters

Russia retains the number two spot after the United States amid the world’s top weapons exporters, accounting for 21 percent of total global sales over the last five years, according to estimates by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has outlined the factors he believes make the country’s military equipment competitive against foreign analogues in the face of tightening competition.
“I am confident that Russian military equipment will continue to remain competitive and in demand, owing to its unique properties and characteristics, as well as advanced developments,” Putin said , speaking at a meeting of the commission on military-technical cooperation, including the chiefs of a number of Russia’s defence concerns, on Thursday.
According to Putin, the continued global demand for Russian arms is based on their reputation for quality, as well as their proven effectiveness on the battlefield.
“There’s no doubt that the successful experience of the use of our weapons, which demonstrated themselves admirably in Syria, also plays in our favour,” Putin said. “Our weapons’ effectiveness, accuracy, reliability and ease of maintenance are the qualities which determine their demand on the global arms market,” he noted.
Russian arms exports topped the equivalent of $15 billion+ in 2019, with the portfolio of current orders equivalent to over $55 billion, Putin said.
At the same time, the president noted that Russia’s military industries will need to adjust their efforts to enable them to preserve their market share amid growing competition and new global economic risks, such as the coronavirus.
Russia has been able to preserve its number two position among the world’s top arms exporters in recent years, notwithstanding growing competition from fledgling exporters like France, Germany, South Korea and Israel. Russia’s military industry has also faced non-economic pressures from its chief export rival – the United States, which has slapped sanctions on Russian defence-industry-related entities, and threatened countries purchasing Russian arms with sanctions under the so-called ‘Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA) of 2017.

Satellite Boom May Threaten US national security

The mass building and deployment of commercial satellites is likely to bring about serious threats to the US’ national security and global interests, as fellow countries quickly work to expand their stakes in space, a new study published by researchers with the Institute of Defense Analyses (IDA) has revealed.
Published in the National Defense University’s Joint Forces Quarterly , the study noted that while the spike in satellites will help to better inform US service members across the board during military operations, the build-up will also have some drawbacks.
“The effects of proliferated constellations will not be confined to the commercial sector. The exponential increase in the number of satellites on orbit will shape the future military operating environment in space,” reads the study.
“These trends will also create new challenges as adversaries ranging from Great Power competitors to hostile nonstate actors gain cheap access to space capabilities and the emergence of space-based Internet reshapes the cyber battlespace.”
Referencing various satellite projects by China, such as the 156-satellite Xingyun and
300-satellite Hongyan low Earth orbit constellations, IDA researchers Matthew Hallex and Travis Cottom speculated that such “systems could pose a significant threat to US interests” as a result of “China’s willingness to allow for commercial dealings with countries hostile to the United States.”
When it comes to potential dangers from Russia’s ongoing satellite projects, researchers stated that efforts by Russian space agency Roscosmos present less of a threat to the US due to “difficulties facing the Russian civil and commercial space programs.” The study does not offer further details on the matter.
Aside from possible threats from other nations, Hallex and Cottom also addressed in their study risks posed by having an excessive amount of satellites in low Earth orbit. With a more congested space environment comes the possibility of collisions with other satellites, a setback which would largely become a distraction for US service members assigned to national security operations.
However, not all was doom and gloom in the study. The creation of “mega-constellations” could pave the way for developing countries to improve their communication lines, researchers stated.
“Mega-constellations could allow the developing world to skip laying costly fiber-optic cable in the same way the proliferation of cellular phone technology provided communications without the need to build phone lines in the developing world,” reads the study. “[Low Earth orbit]-proliferated constellations will also be able to provide communications to high-latitude populations in Alaska, northern Canada, Scandinavia, and Russia, which are poorly served by terrestrial communications infrastructure and outside the coverage of GEO [geosynchronous] communications satellites.”
Satellite internet company OneWeb is one of several companies eyeing the opportunity to launch such communications clusters: the firm plans to have a first-generation constellation of 648 satellites, to be expanded later. However, though OneWeb has launched some 74 satellites thus far, the chances of the constellation being completed are somewhat shaky, as the
company recently filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy . Per OneWeb, its bankruptcy was rooted in loss of financial backing due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Unlike OneWeb, fellow contender aerospace company SpaceX is due to go full steam ahead with its objective to build a constellation of some 12,000 satellites, called Starlink. Recently it was reported by Space News that SpaceX was given the go-ahead to launch its sixth batch of satellites on April 16.

OPMs office must be cleansed well...and deeper investigations in this saga.

This is totally disheartening,and an embrassement to the state!!! Can you imagine now how the public is looking at this nonsense now!!! Arent you the first people who must have a heart for Uganda and ugandans...i have always said this,there are so many goats working with gorvenment yet they donot care whether it crumbles down..they only mind about their stomachs!!!

I am worried now,these pigs will start fighting Afande Nakalema,they see her as a problem to their "eating"...Your excellence,make sure Nakalema is protected!!!They will start cooking out ways of throwing her out of that office!!!!

Please ,your excellence!A thorough investigation is needed into the matter and all firms that are involved must answer.

If such pigs can do this at this time,imagine what they have been doing???? OPMs office MUST be swept and cleansed thoroughly well!!!!For GOd and my country.....

Your excellence sir,you must take a keen look at how people,starving ugandans hit by the consequences of this covid19 are looking at this bogus now,Dirtening the image of gorvenment!!! I have always said this"let their nonsense remain in their towns and let our villages safe" but what has been done by this pigs is going to affect us all..

MTN uganda brings another good offer,you can call from 10pm to 8am for as low as 100 shillings

Minister Jane acheng's facebook account must be made to look Verified and official to avoid people who may maliciously use her names to spread fake Covid19 updates

I think the ministry of healthy team should advise minister Jane aceng to verify and single out the facebook account she uses and which people must visit if the have to get official updates! She must make sure that people differentiate what is the official account from fake ones!!! I remember recently someone used a fake twit alleging that the president had ordered for a total lock down and many people were nearly taking the info as true until a group responsible alerted the president of the circulating fake info

.This period of Covid19 fight is being keenly followed by every ugandan and everyone us trying to visit such social media accounts of people like the minister of healthy Jane acheng!!!It will be helpful if she sets up an official account with and marked by the blue tick!!!I know this may look simple but depending on the fake twit that almost got everyone worried of how the president could immidiately order for a lock down.and the circulating fake news of the food distributions, then an official account has to be created!!!

When i try or start investigating something especially on this internet then know that there are some suspicious elements who are planning to spread such fake information! Imagine now that someone was sending fake emails pretending to be her

,Ugandans should be careful of these messages and UCC must compel all girvenment officials to have their social media accounts verified....
......And this is the valid,and true page of minister Jane aceng....anyone who was asking of the real page where to get real information on covid19 should always visit it....

Nakasongola develops a prototype of the first African firefighting machine

Today, I observed the successful launching of a prototype of an African firefighting vehicle at Nakasongola.
This vehicle is a convergence of two ideas that have been part of my life.
The first idea, is the traditional way of putting out bushfire ( okuteera omuriro ogw'ekishugyi).
In suppressing bushfire, using appropriate tree branches (not too small not too heavy), you tackle the bushfire from the rear (okugureetwa aha mugongo).
The bushfire is always driven by the wind. If the wind is blowing from the East to the West, the fire will burn from the East to the West ( I.e the same direction as the wind).
It is very dangerous to try and tackle the fire from the direction it is burning towards (in this case from West to East).
The fire and the smoke can easily catch up with you and kill you (either by suffocation and blinding from the smoke or actually burning).
This is not to forget the snakes and other animals that will be running away from the fire in the direction it is heading which can be a danger to you, especially the snakes.
Whenever I watch people in Western countries fighting fire on the TV, I do not see any systematic pattern of abating this issue - the angle from which you attack the fire.
Hence, the first idea of this vehicle is the African idea of fighting the fire from the rear.
The second idea of this vehicle is from my military background of using tracked vehicles (those that move on chains rather than wheels - ebijegyere versus emipiira) which have good cross country mobility capacity (they can move through the bush, they don't have to follow the roads), therefore, after consulting our engineers, we decided to convert a tracked military vehicle into a fire fighting vehicle by removing the guns and the turret and replacing them with a water tank with hoses for spraying water.
In our opinion, such a tracked vehicle (moving on chains) is better than aircraft or vehicles which are moving on wheels and are, therefore, road-bound.
The advantage for the tracked vehicles is that, if they are backed by other tracked water carriers, they can sustainably fight the fire without stopping unlike the aircraft which must always go back to recharge.

In the earlier stages of the COVID-19 epidemic in the UK, suggestions had been made that one way of dealing with the virus was by allowing 80 per cent of the population to catch it, in order to build up “herd immunity”. However, the plan was swiftly dismissed by Health Secretary Matt Hancock as exposing the most vulnerable to a high risk of death.

UK to take a second thought on covid19 carfew

Earlier today, Professor of Infectious Disease Modelling at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Graham Medley said as quoted by The Times that there might be a need to reconsider the controversial herd immunity strategy, which implies allowing people to catch the coronavirus to build up a resistance.
Neil Ferguson, a British epidemiologist and professor of mathematical biology, stated on Saturday that the UK could move to slightly reduced lockdown measures as work was underway to see how intensive testing and contract tracing could replace these measures.
"I'm hopeful that in a few weeks' time we will be able to move to a regime which - will not be a normal life, let me emphasize that - but will be somewhat more relaxed in terms of social-distancing and the economy but rely more on testing," Neil Ferguson said.
The day before, UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock unveiled the government’s newest approach to handling the coronavirus, which is focused primarily on scaling up mass testing.
The health secretary also announced that £13 billion ($16.1bn) of debt owed by NHS hospital trusts would be written off, and an extra £300 million ($371m) will be given to community pharmacies.
According to the data provided by the World Health Organisation, as of Friday, the number of coronavirus cases in the UK was at 33,722, with the death toll at 2,921. At the same time, the organisation says that 976,249 people were infected worldwide and 50,489 died as of Fri

Up to 600 French service men test positive of covid19

As the number of COVID-19 cases confirmed globally has surpassed 1 million, the World Health Organization (WHO) is stressing the need for countries to shut their economies down to curb the spreading of the coronavirus, be patient, and give time for lockdowns to work.
The number of COVID-19 cases in the United States has risen above 250,000, Johns Hopkins University’s real-time tracker revealed on Friday.
Russia is suspending, starting 4 April, international flights for evacuating citizens from abroad, in order to contain the coronavirus through preventing a new wave of imported cases.
According to Russian Ambassador to the US Anatoly Antonov, more than 2,000 Russian citizens cannot return from the United States due to travel restrictions that were introduced to fight the spread of COVID-19.
The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic on 11 March. According to data updated by WHO on 3 April, the total number of those infected stands at 972,303, while the death toll is 50,322. Johns Hopkins University argues that about 1.1 million people have been infected with the coronavirus worldwide, with over 59,000 fatalities so far.

Let us all listen to the our beloved president

Everyone must be home by 7pm irrespective of who you are!!!

This carfew is supposed to be observed by every Ugandan as a MUST and even the president.So am really shocked to some of you who think you cannot obey it!!! Whether you are a minister or whatever you think you are,you must obey it!! However there may be and are some exceptions like Nurses,doctors, and others with emergency cases.Fir the case of these I have described like Nurses and doctors, if you are going for a night duty then you are allowed but do not use that exception to go where you are not needed to be!!!Only personnels involved in making sure that people adhere to the carfew are the only ones allowed beyond 7pm.So, everyone irrespective of who you are must be at his home by 7pm!! And try to respect those involved in seeing that the carfew is respected!!!!

The hospital, which was assembled in 9 days, is intended to house up to 4,000 people. It was set up in order to ease the pressure on closed hospitals which have been overwhelmed by COVID-19 patients. ​

On Wednesday, the United Kingdom registered the biggest increase in coronavirus-related deaths so far since the start of the outbreak. According to the the World Health Organization (WHO) the number of fatalities has risen to 2,352.

At the same time, Johns Hopkins University says that there are 33,718 COVID-19 cases and 2,921 fatalities in the UK.
