Fellow Citizens, Today our Muslim faithful celebrate Eid-ul-Fitr. It is a festival marking the end of Ramadan.
Exactly a month from today, the Uganda Bureau Of Statistics will undertake our once in ten years National Population and Housing Census. This census exercise is important because our government cannot accurately have evidence-based planning, policy formulation, and implementation without it.
“I would like to announce the sixth National Population and Housing Census (NP&HC) that will start on 10th May, 2024”, President Museveni, said, in a statement last week.
The NP&HC will generate up-dated data and information about Uganda’s population size, distribution and its attendant demographic and socio-economic characteristics. This is the basis for evidence-based planning, policy formulation and implementation, by Government, for impactful service delivery.

We find ourselves in a post truth age, where the malicious hide behind false, unverifiable information to drive a hate agenda against people they don’t like, like the hoax of Shs500m allegedly paid to Speaker of Parliament Anita Among as per diem for holiday.
