#Flashback : Jennifer Musisi resigned as the first Executive Director of the Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) after submitting a 21-page resignation letter to President Yoweri Museveni on October 15, 2018. She officially left office on December 15, 2018, bringing to an end seven and a half years of service. In her detailed resignation notice, Musisi explained that a number of structural and political challenges had made it increasingly difficult for her to effectively carry out her mandate. Following her departure from KCCA, Musisi relocated to the United States, where she assumed a position as a City Leader in Residence at Harvard University.

TRIBUTE: The creator of Mobile Money has passed on!!! Thatโ€™s what the headline should be reading today. Most people who hear this story are always skeptical but for those of us who were there, itโ€™s as true a truth could ever be. Because of the naivety of youth and his trusting nature, Richard Obore, aka Richie K as we fondly called him would only see his idea come to life in the news. I will never forget the first day I met Richie K in early 1990. It was my first day in Nakasero PS as a fresh villager from Mbarara and him and William Nzarubara were the only kids in the whole school kind enough to welcome me and show me around the place, including teaching me how monkey bars was played. We later found ourselves together at MUK doing Computer Science and eventually did life together. In fact, on any random Saturday, if you looked for me, 95% chances were that I would be with Richie K at our โ€œKafundaโ€ with the breakfast boyz. Always the life of the party, the guy whose laughter and very vocal arguments could be heard from a mile away. Always there. Always ready to hold your hand. Always willing to give you the last 50K he had if it was going to be more useful to you than him. Truly one of the most brilliant and yet selfless people Iโ€™ve ever known. And just like that, heโ€™s gone. Thatโ€™s two major hits for me in less than a month. Itโ€™s tough, not sure I can take too many more. Rest well bro. Weโ€™ll meet again.

Why Museveniโ€™s University Leavers Fund Wonโ€™t Work When President Museveni promised to launch a fund for university graduates who fail to find a job within two years, it sounded โ€” at first โ€” like a sympathetic gesture toward Ugandaโ€™s restless youth. But under the weight of Ugandaโ€™s current economic realities, this fund has little chance of succeeding. Uganda produces over 500,000 graduates each year, while the economy creates only about 100,000 new jobs. That leaves hundreds of thousands of young people stranded, often for years, in informal or low-paying work. A fund cannot fix this imbalance. At best, it can provide temporary relief; at worst, it will become another populist promise that fails to touch the root causes of youth unemployment. The fiscal math is even more sobering. Imagine the government committed even a modest UGX 2 million (about $500) per beneficiary. If just half of the jobless graduates applied, the fund would need over UGX 500 billion ($130+ million) annually. Uganda is already under pressure to cut spending and reduce domestic borrowing. In this environment, a new multi-hundred-billion-shilling scheme looks politically convenient but financially unrealistic. And then thereโ€™s the elephant in the room: implementation. Uganda has seen a parade of well-intentioned programs โ€” NAADS, Emyooga, Youth Livelihood Fund โ€” crippled by corruption, poor targeting, or lack of follow-up. Without radical reform of how such funds are managed, this new idea risks becoming another leaky bucket, enriching a few while the majority remain in limbo. Even if the money reached graduates, itโ€™s not clear how it would solve the employment crisis. Ugandaโ€™s private sector, which should be the engine of job creation, is still constrained by high credit costs, limited infrastructure, and an uneven business environment. Without expanding the productive capacity of the economy, giving handouts to graduates is like pouring water into sand. The truth is, a โ€œUniversity Leavers Fundโ€ is treating symptoms, not the disease. What Uganda needs is structural reform: aligning university curricula with market demand, scaling vocational training, improving the business climate for SMEs, and creating incentives for private investment that can generate sustainable jobs. Until then, Museveniโ€™s promise is not a solution; it is a political soundbite. In a country where nearly 80% of youth are either unemployed or underemployed, a tokenistic fund cannot possibly fill the gap.

I still canโ€™t believe that my friend Achola Rosario is no more after she collapsed yesterday in Kenya and paddled far beyond. We both shared an indescribable passion for sophisticated cars, art(though mine is archaic art and hers was both contemporary and archaic) and writing. I remember in 2014 when she braved the night and picked me up from Entebbe Airport at 1am without a prior program. I just called and reliably she came, and we drove in her old Nissan pulling at the same joint while we wreathed in the nice marijuana smoke that pervaded in the entire car. She loved her car more than anything else and when she left Uganda to live in Kenya, she went with it. Somewhere along the wayโ€”I think in Kisumuโ€”it broke down. She rang me late in the night to tell me about it. We would continue talking over and over again about our shared passions. It hurts to lose a friend, more so a caring one who has lived an unpretentious existence with an inconspicuous ill repute. Youโ€™ll always be missed, Rosarioโ€”and may your sweet soul rest in eternal peace.

I always wanted to leave home and be independent. The perfect opportunity had presented its self . A huge piece of land in which I was a broker had been successfully transacted & I was given my share . I was the only broker from the buyers side so I made slightly over 200K.

Being productive today isn't about time management, it's about mind management. 2. Time management optimizes the resource of time. Mind management optimizes the resource of creative energy. 3. Not all hours are created equal: If you write for an hour a day, within a year you'll have a book. But you can't instead simply write for 365 hours straight, and get the same result. 4. The First Hour Rule is simply this: Spend the first hour of your day working on your most important project. 5. If you start your day working on the most important thing, there's less of a chance for other things to get in the way. 6. Sometimes your mind is better-suited to think creatively. Sometimes your mind is better-suited to think analytically. 7. The point of time is not to fill as much life as possible into a given unit of time. The point of time is to use time as a guide to living a fulfilling life. 8. A one-hour increase in average daily sleep raises productivity by more than a one-year increase in education. 9. When you randomly switch from one activity to another, your energy leaks...If you're doing that all the time, little of your energy is going toward traction. 10. A Harvard study found that the busier knowledge workers were, the less creative they were; this study found that as workers became more busy, they did less creative thinking activities such as; brainstorming. They reported fewer insights and their work was also rated as less creative by their colleagues . 11. Noise level can also affect your ability to think creatively...studies suggest that a background noise level of about seventy decibels is optimal for idea generation. 12. Things are not difficult to make; what is difficult is putting ourselves in the state of mind to make them.
