that will be in charge of the events. A list of VIPs to be invited being worked on. Be calm
I am still trying to understand how someone who has failed to deliver a hospital 4 which she was paid upfront years ago can be the savior coming 2 rescue us Coffee farmers from the plight of low prices. It may be that I struggle with cognitive abilities but this can’t be my fault
It is common knowledge that
@Parliament_Ug
is itself a
#NyegeNyegeFestival
that runs in five year cycles. And using taxes to irregularly buy ultra luxury Benzes at inflated prices while denying ordinary folks an opportunity to earn a little money from an event is a moral hazard!
The Parliament should be dissolved & we bring forward both Presidential & Parliamentary elections to June. A new political mandate is needed. This one no longer holds.

you did exactly what you said you would do for Uganda 🇺🇬. What a golden moment.
Dropped off a ton of sundried (kiboko) coffee beans to my buyer. We can meet payroll, something we have struggled with all year. In the past I was able to divert other personal incomes to meet working capital needs. Now I have to to do so from Rugyeyo Farm revenue. Happy holidays
It has taken me five days to process a tragic loss at the farm. Two walls of the coffee warehouse we are building came down in a storm. I made two mistakes: delayed the ring beam & didn’t supervise one consignment of cement (which turned out to be bad) now we have to rebuild
To All My Twitter Family: I started on this farming journey exactly four years ago. This is an aerial view how far we have come with

Folks, thanks for all your goodwill, kind words & best wishes. I read all of them 🙏🏿. To those who expressed resentment, Madiba taught us that it is like drinking poison & hoping the other person dies. How true. I pray you find personal healing in your lifetime. Best.
Indigenous Ugandans are hardworking people, committed workers, willing to learn & loyal to a fault. All you have to do is show them what you want done & treat them FAIRLY, HUMANELY & DECENTLY. That's it. It is one of the reasons I have succeeded in my work life as a team leader.

Once upon a time there was a man in Uganda who went by different names: Michael Ezra, Pato, Bryan Whyte, Don Nasser, Medi Sentongo & so on. The End. Discuss the moral of the story.

The colonialists sidelined Africans in coffee trade, our grandparents found a way around it-cooperatives. Our govts appropriated the coffee trade thru marketing agencies, our parents resorted to magendo(“smuggling”). We too shall find our own way to the world market of coffee
The bigger question is how the UGX5bn will be used by doing what in order to prevent the locusts from doing what exactly, coming to UG or destroying our crops even if they come? What happens to the 5bn if the locusts change their minds and don’t come? Yours sincerely, Ffala.
Agriculture minister Vincent Ssempijja has said the ministry will receive the sh5b needed to fight desert locusts. This comes after the ministry last week indicated that they needed sh5b for preparations to deal with a possible incursion of locusts.
