President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has officially launched construction of Hiinga Karis Medical Hospital, a multimillion-dollar facility designed to deliver specialized treatment and expand healthcare access for residents near Gayaza and Wakiso. The Magere-based hospital will accommodate 125 patients and provide emergency services, surgical rooms, four delivery suites, diagnostic labs, and an 18-bed intensive care unit. Officials anticipate the completed facility will create positions for more than 1,000 medical professionals.

During the groundbreaking ceremony, Museveni praised private sector healthcare providers for their operational efficiency and staff management, stating they sometimes surpass government-run hospitals in supervision quality. He argued that backing private medical centers helps relieve strain on public facilities and urged citizens to prioritize development over divisive issues like ethnicity or faith. The president emphasized that tribal or religious identity holds no relevance when patients seek medical attention.

Ikiriza Davis, chairman of Karis Medical Hospital and Nursing University, expressed gratitude for the stable business climate that attracts investment. He clarified ownership details amid political speculation and stressed that healthcare should foster unity among Ugandans. The three-acre campus will also train nurses with professional skills for both domestic service and international employment opportunities once operations begin next year.
