In his own words, at @TheUMAofficial GDC at Imp. Royale Hotel in August, 2016, H.E. President @KagutaMuseveni referred to the act of SHOs providing a vital workforce without any financial compensation, as “Modern day slavery" #PayOurDoctors #SHOsNotSlaves

Thank you H.E @KagutaMuseveni for coming out to apologise to the Health Workers that were tortured during this crisis and for condemning the acts of beating up Ugandans. @DianaAtwine @JaneRuth_Aceng @MinofHealthUG @PoliceUg

I am sorry that LDU’s stopped medical doctors and harassed them before the stickers came. I am very sorry about that. I also have problems with my security people who like beating people. This must stop, I don’t want to see a security person beating people.
