“Counting people should never cost a country its ability to make people count.” These words, first voiced during a 2015 keynote address by South African statistician Pali Lehohla at a UN Data Forum, warned of a dangerous paradox in national planning. In essence, Lehohla meant that the act of collecting statistics—however important—should not compromise the delivery of essential services that those statistics are meant to improve. Uganda’s 2024 national census embodied this contradiction. For instance, UGX1.61 billion meant for the Parish Development Model (PDM)—a programme targeting 39 percent of households stuck in subsistence—was diverted to plug funding gaps in the…

When the authority responsible for procurement and disposal of public assets falters in its duties, the impact doesn’t just stay within its walls – it ripples dangerously through the economy, governance structures, and public trust. Procurement is the engine room of public service delivery, powering everything from roads and hospitals, schools, and critical infrastructure. The crack in compliance So when oversight breaks down, mismanagement, corruption, inflated costs, and outright theft aren’t far behind. Without rigorous inspection and monitoring, procurement processes become a fertile ground for collusion between suppliers and government officials. Why?

Imagine Posta Uganda, formerly Uganda Post Limited, as a traditional service provider—delivering mail, packages, selling stamps, and offering agency banking in remote outposts. It’s not glamorous, but it remains an integral cog in Uganda’s infrastructure. But importance doesn’t always translate to profitability. In the year ended June 2024, Posta earned UGX18.55 billion in operating revenue, mostly from core activities like mail delivery, courier services, and agency functions. On paper, it reported UGX18.11 billion in expenses. However, the Auditor General put the actual figure at UGX17.33 billion, revealing a UGX780 million gap. The 4.3% variance raises eyebrows: Were some costs overstated?…

The current rope pulling and shoving offer an insight into what is turning out to be an interesting twist in the exit of Umeme. Until a few days ago, the events around the exit of the company that has been part of Uganda’s electricity sub-sector for 20 years, had been largely silent. However, in the weeks to the end of the concession due on 31st March 2025, voices emerged and have become louder, threatening to tear apart a relationship – despite the existence of some knocks here and there – that has been cordial over the 20 year-course of the…

One may wonder what’s on Jennifer Bamuturaki’s mind; is it the war in Congo and its impact on Uganda Airlines’ operations, the public scrutiny of her financial losses as a chief executive of a national carrier, or perhaps the airline’s expansion plans for 2025? Bamuturaki has had some lucky years and…

The Auditor General, Edward Akol, has noted with concern that the Tilenga and KingFisher Development Area oil projects in western Uganda are behind schedule in hitting completion targets, with some activities also facing a funding crisis. The Auditor noted that whereas the Uganda commercial oil production plans had set a target of drilling 451 oil wells, the Field Development Plan (FDP) designated only 177 (approximately 39%) as necessary for the initial phase of oil production targeted for November 2025, and which was later projected to 2027. However by the time of the compiling of the Auditor’s report in November 2024,…
