I was pleased to engage with the Parliamentary Committee on Appointments, chaired by the Rt. Hon. Speaker of Parliament. Our discussions focused on key issues shaping Uganda’s labour sector, including labour externalization, worker protection, skills development, employment opportunities, and strengthening governance within the industry. I appreciate the Committee’s insightful engagement and commitment to advancing policies that promote decent work and sustainable employment outcomes for Ugandans.

Thank You, Your Excellency YK Museveni I sincerely thank H.E. President #YoweriKagutaMuseveni for appointing me Minister of State for Gender, Labour and Social Development (Employment and Industrial Relations). I am humbled by this confidence and pledge to serve Uganda with integrity, dedication, and commitment. Grateful to the Bamasaaba community and all Ugandans for their support. For God and My Country.

I'm happy to announce that we raised over 1 billion Uganda shillings during the birthday run. I shall soon announce the charities we shall support and handover cheques to them. Thank you all for your support.

#NBSLiveAt9 The IGG should deploy assisted declaration centers, mobile outreach, and offline-to-digital systems, while expanding digital access, training public servants, and integrating data verification to ensure inclusive, enforceable, and transparent compliance nationwide.

🔴 Tonight on Spectrum Extra The week in review: what mattered most? @anderlukson hosts @simonmulongo, Imam Idd Kasozi, @ChemongesTim & @mwiru_paul to analyze the major events shaping Uganda. 🕖 7PM–9PM 🌐 radioonefm90.com #SpectrumExtra #WeekInReview

Gen. Muhoozi and the political economy of African sovereignty Within this context, General @mkainerugaba's emphasis on self-financed defence capacity reflects strategic rationality rather than impulsive nationalism. Defending General Muhoozi and Uganda is not a rejection of co-operation, nor a denial of governance challenges. ✍️@SimonMulongo DETAILS 👉👉newvision.co.ug/category/peo… #VisionUpdates

"Serunkuma’s essay ultimately yearns for political poetry: a graceful, redemptive ending. Yet statecraft in post-conflict societies is rarely lyrical. It is often tragic prose, where virtue lies not in symbolic gestures but in stewardship, sequencing, and restraint. The democratic horizon is not in dispute..." Amb. @simonmulongo, I didn't know your game. While I think you have chosen we bury our heads in the sand – this is very beautiful writing.

President @KagutaMuseveni's victory, widely reported as decisive, can be explained through a combination of structural, political, and behavioural factors that are often overlooked when analysts search for dramatic narratives rather than disciplined explanations. ✍️@simonmulongo DETAILS 👉👉newvision.co.ug/category/blo…

Trump isn't going to Davos to negotiate—he's delivering terms of surrender. His team has already withdrawn from 66 globalist bodies and is tracking the money behind domestic chaos. The real offensive is underway. 🎥 Watch:

Public Notice The account @SamuelNsubuga_ is impersonating me by using my photo and misleading the public. I, Simon Mulongo, have no connection whatsoever to this individual or their views. Ioperate under my real identity. This impersonation is not only unethical but potentially dangerous. @MFASomalia @UgandaMOFA —#Impersonation #Disinformation

Onyango-Obbo’s piece is a wickedly sharp mirror—held up not just to Africa’s leaders, but to the very idea of power in a post-colonial world turned upside down. In this absurd theatre of geopolitics, it seems the mountain (Trump) has not only refused to come to Muhammad (Africa), but Muhammad has packed his things, boarded a flight, and is now camped outside Mar-a-Lago, mineral samples in one hand and a crumpled port lease in the other. The DRC’s offer of unlimited minerals is poetic in its irony—how do you offer what you don’t fully control? It’s like gifting someone the moon while still figuring out how to reach it. And Somalia’s bid? Leasing out ports it neither built nor governs is the diplomatic equivalent of subletting your neighbor’s house while they’re still inside. And yet, the great irony—Trump hasn’t even replied. Not a press conference, not a tweet, not even a sarcastic Truth Social post. The silence is thunderous. It’s as if Africa is auditioning for a role in a movie no one’s filming. Onyango-Obbo is not just writing commentary—he’s sketching a tragicomic parable. In a world where the post-colonial script is now being read backwards, Africa isn’t resisting empire—it’s offering it refreshments.
