AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Ebola Crisis in Congo and Uganda: The Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak is worsening across eastern DR Congo and spilling into Uganda, with Africa CDC warning cases are likely higher than reported and urging more local funding for vaccines and response as conflict and misinformation hamper care. Airport Upgrade for West Nile: The African Development Bank approved about Shs650bn (€155.99m) to upgrade Arua Airport into an international-standard facility, boosting regional passenger and cargo capacity. Elderly Health Insurance Gap: Uganda’s elderly insurance uptake remains very low as premiums are too high and rural access to quality care is limited, despite growing interest in senior coverage. Public Debt and Business Voice: Uganda’s private and public sectors called for stronger private sector input into public debt conversations as the FY 2026/27 budget and reforms shape investment and jobs. Uganda Politics Tensions: Opposition figures, including Joel Ssenyonyi, allege plans to implicate them in court cases amid rising friction with security leadership. Education and Discipline: Kabale district reports rising alcohol abuse among science teachers after salary increases, raising concerns about classroom time and professionalism. Tourism Push to Turkey: Uganda held tourism roadshows in Gaziantep and Istanbul, drawing 200+ Turkish trade buyers and aiming to build new travel packages. AFCON Jersey Design: FUFA and MTN Uganda launched a fan challenge to redesign the Uganda Cranes AFCON 2027 jersey.
