Careful Nduhura
- All people fear death but state minister for health Richard Nduhura has taken the fear to another level. Addressing participants at a diabetes workshop at Imperial Royale, Kampala, the minister confessed: “Every time I spend a week in Kampala, I tell my driver to drive me to Busega. I then walk from Busega to my home in Naalya and I feel very very fit. My mother died of hypertension and my father of diabetes so I get very worried.” Mr, Minister, be careful, you might be killed by a reckless taxi driver instead!

Overwhelmed cock
- MPs never cease to amuse! Recently, as Parliament debated the progress of the prosperity for all programme, Bukedea MP Oduman Okello said 30 families had been given one hybrid cock and two hybrid he–goats per sub-county. “What do you expect such a cock to do?” A sub-county is very big what can two he-goats do to such a vast area?” he asked, sending the whole House into prolonged laughter.

Museveni warns
- President Museveni is indeed a father of the nation. He gave some sex education to the people that had gathered at the recent opening of Ovino shopping mall in Kisenyi, Kampala. “All of you are youths; guard your life very well, Temumala gatomela kyemulabye, mwekuume. Akawuka kamukenenya kakyali wano. Ate n’omwenge mugukendeze gumalamu amaanyi,” he told the youth. He was cautioning the youth against contracting the deadly HIV and overdrinking.

M7’s handshake
- Salim Uhuru, a councillor for Kisenyi 1 in Kampala, is over the moon. Why? “I am so happy today that I have shaken the hand of President Yoweri Museveni. I have been waiting for this for years. I won’t wash my hands for the next one week,” he told the crowd which attended the opening ceremony of Ovino Market.
This sent the President and his wife Janet into rib-breaking laughter.
