The lawyer for former top cop Gen. Kale Kayihura shot down internet rumors Sunday. Jet Tumwebaze called fake news and claimed his client faces money troubles. People shared pictures showing the ex-police boss walking by himself on city streets, looking sad.
Tumwebaze explained what really happened behind that viral photo everyone talked about online. He spoke directly with Gen. Kale about it. The former police leader had just wrapped up talks at Kabira Country Club when he hit terrible traffic. Instead of sitting stuck, he chose to stretch his legs, walking just a few blocks toward his next planned meeting.
Contrary to what folks suggested online, his protection team stayed close by the entire time. After seeing that single snapshot...

Congo just grabbed all the houses that belonged to Claude Pero Luwara. The Justice Ministry made this move on March 8, 2025, because they say Luwara helps the AFC/M23 terror group. Officials learned through their investigation that Luwara bought several properties after he started working with these rebels. The Congolese government wasted no time taking these buildings away from him.
The first house they took sits in the Maman Mobutu area of Mont-Ngafula. Luwara had just recently bought another place in the Bisengo section of Bandalungwa. The Justice Ministry plans to charge everyone who helped Luwara buy these properties or transfer the paperwork. They mean business about stopping anyone who assisted with these deals.

Kenya weather experts warned about heavy rain coming after months of hot, dry weather. They said last Saturday that rain would increase from March 9 through March 11, 2025. The head of Kenya weather services explained heavy rain might reach over 30 mm in just one day. He said it would spread to northwest Kenya by March 10 and become lighter after March 11.
The warning came after weeks of extreme heat all over Kenya. Many areas reached temperatures between 37°C and 40°C during February and early March. This heat led to water problems, hurt farm crops, and raised fire risks in counties like Turkana and Baringo. People living in Nairobi and central areas faced record heat during the daytime, requiring more water and power.

The Buganda Kingdom faces a fresh battle with the government about who really controls Kaazi land. Lands Minister Sam Mayanja started the fight by questioning whether the Kabaka truly has rights to this property. Buganda leaders fired back fast, stating the land "legally belongs to the Kabaka" and warning against any attempts to change who controls it. Minister Mayanja publicly claimed the Buganda Land Board operates against the law and promised action to defend what he considers public property.
Mayanja pointed to complaints from family members of H.H. Daudi Chwa II and Omulangira George William Mawanda. These relatives believe illegal deals happened between their families, the Uganda Scouts Association, and the Buganda Land Board...
Doctors across Uganda have asked officials to free Mr. Ssekitoleko Yasin from Luzira Prison right away. The Uganda Medical Association says his health has crashed badly because he stayed locked up for years and refused to eat. People often call him Machete.

The UN says South Sudan stands at the edge of another war. Rising fighting, deep political fighting, and army clashes might break the shaky peace deal. The UN group monitoring human rights in South Sudan warns that fights in Upper Nile State could wreck the peace plan and make life worse for regular people.
Bad guys shot down a UN helicopter in Nasir, killing UN workers and top South Sudan army leaders, including a general. The UN group calls this a war crime under world law. They say these attacks come from bad leadership and long waits to bring different fighting groups together as the peace deal requires.
The country faces more trouble as the government kicks out and fires people who disagree with them, including ministers and...
