Experts weigh in on rising gun violence
Mr Ali Male, a counselling psychologist at A-Z Professional Counselling Support Centre, concurs.
Mental health experts in the country have said addressing mental illness is not enough to save the country from the surge in fatal gun violence.
“The socio-economic situation is worsening in the country,” says Dr Kenneth Kalani, a psychiatrist at the Health ministry. He says: “Some people can cope with negative ways such as quarreling and violent acts, which are negative ways of coping.”
Dr Stephen Okiror, a clinical psychiatrist at Butabika hospital, says gun violence could be birthed by “an emotional reaction.” The violence has tied the country in knots, with 10 fatal shootings registered in the country in the past fortnight.

After nearly emptying kraals of cattle, the raiders are now reportedly raiding homes for food stuffs.
Before his homestead was raided by armed cattle rustlers in Abilonyero Village, Atunga Sub-county in Abim District three years ago, 60-year-old Michael Otto’s one-acre compound contained three granaries and a kraal with about 40 head of cattle.
The raiders, according to Mr Otto, raided the village, which is guarded by a unit of armed UPDF soldiers numbering less than 15, and took the animals in one dark and rainy night.

The Catholic Church in Kampala has condemned homosexuality as sinful and must be fought by all followers.
Archbishop Paul Ssemogerere of the Archdiocese of Kampala said the Church is right to condemn homosexuality as evil and should not be condoned.
He made the statement during celebrations to mark 10 years of Pope Francis in service in Kampala on Wednesday.

Uganda's legal tender. The forensic audit reveals that taxpayers lost Shs39b while employees and pensioners were robbed of up to Shs41.1b. PHOTO | COURTESY
By Elizabeth Kamurungi
What you need to know:
The records show gross payroll mismanagement at local governments despite interventions by the Ministry of Public Service. For example, Shs1b was paid to 795 staff who had either retired, transferred, absconded or died with the worst delays ranging from one to 16 months.
Tax payers lost in excess of Shs80 billion in illegal or questionable payments to more than 28,000 district and other local government (LG) workers, according to a new report by the Auditor General (AG).
The salary forensic audit for the year ending June 2022, which has become available to this newspaper only now, found a litany of overpayments, underpayments and cases of illegal payroll access and deductions.
It unearths delayed removal of the dead from payrolls or stop to payments to ineligible persons. There are also anomalies relating to under-remittance, inaccurate computation of pension and gratuity, and non-deduction and under-deduction of Pay As You Earn (PAYE).
In some cases, officials used wrong formula to compute statutory deductions. According to the report, the payroll glitches have deprived thousands of government employees of rightful pay due to underpayments and use of wrong salary scales.
The forensic audit reveals that taxpayers lost Shs39b while employees and pensioners were robbed of up to Shs41.1b.
The records show gross payroll mismanagement at local governments despite interventions by the Ministry of Public Service. For example, Shs1b was paid to 795 staff who had either retired, transferred, absconded or died with the worst delays ranging from one to 16 months.
An audit of payrolls of 129 local governments found that Shs19b was lost to payment of persons who accessed the payroll through forgery of appointment documents. The AG unearthed a total of 609 secondary school and tertiary institution employees, under the Education Service Commission (ESC), who used forged minutes to access government payroll.
“The individuals had been on the payroll for a varied number of years, ranging from 1 to 39, with some even approaching retirement,” the AG notes, adding, “The accounting officers explained that the issue of ineligible secondary school and tertiary institutions’ employees was beyond them since the appointment and posting is done by the Ministry of Education and Sports (MoES)”.
The auditors reported an inability by local governments to validate eligibility of the posting instructions because they lacked an automated database at the ESC containing minute extracts of all secondary school teachers.
In such scenarios, however, Dr Denis Mugimba, the Education ministry spokesperson, said the loophole is at the district level that manages the payroll.

Why price of rice has skyrocketed

Globally, rice has in recent times come under attack. A neat link has been drawn between rice-heavy diets and non-communicable diseases like diabetes.
The rice market in Uganda risks running into headwinds. With local rice production spluttering, the market rates of the starchy grain have shot up exponentially.
