As the number of Mpox cases continues to rise, health officials and community leaders in Makindye are working tirelessly to contain the spread and protect the health of residents.
The sensitization meeting’s objectives included raising awareness, promoting healthy practices, engaging stakeholders, and fostering community support by building a supportive environment for those seeking to quit smoking.
Kidnappings among children are on the rise in the Makindye division. On September 8, 2024, police arrested a woman, only identified as Nalubiri, in a rented home in Katwe parish, after kidnapping a toddler during a Sunday church service in Kisenyi, Kampala. This calls for further investigations to find out the motives of the kidnappers in the area.
