Where the Hell is Moses Kuria?

It seems Moses Kuria, the man of many portfolios, embarked on a whirlwind adventure through the halls of government, only to find himself in a comedic conundrum. Starting off strong as the Cabinet Secretary for Investments, Trade, and Industry, he was the talk of the town. But alas, fate had other plans. In a twist fit for a sitcom, Kuria found himself shuffled over to the Public Service portfolio faster than you can say "bureaucratic shuffle". Then, the plot thickened! In a classic case of diplomatic drama, the US Trade Representative, Katherine Tai, decided to give Kuria a cold shoulder after cancelling not one, but two meetings with him. The reason? His "foul mouth". Oh, the irony! It seems even the most seasoned politicians can't escape the wrath of a sharp tongue.

Hacker posts Hitler photo on State House website

KAMPALA - The official website of State House was last evening pulled down after unknown people hacked into it and posted a picture of the Nazi German dictator Adolf Hitler. The image stayed on the site for more than 24 hours having been posted on Saturday until about 4:00pm on Sunday when the site was finally pulled down.

The hacker claiming to be called Kaka Argentine posted the photo of Hitler with a Nazi Party symbol on his chest on Saturday. The controversial posts, conspicuous on the home page, were posted below the picture of President Museveni greeting the Masaka Municipality MP, John Kawanga during a meeting at Munyonyo Resort on May 25.

This is not the first time strangers have hijacked the government departments’ website.  Last year, hackers calling themselves 'the Ayyildiz team' posted pro-Palestine items on the website of the ministry of defense, accusing Israel of killing innocent Palestinians.

The presidential press secretary, Ms Linda Nabusayi, said they had received information that the posts were a result of an internal wrangle within the company that had been outsourced to manage the website. “I have been told that the external service providers have issues within their company and that one workers who has since left could be the one behind this,” she said.

ICT Minister Aggrey Awori said State House has been a target of such attacks and blamed the cyber crime on opposition elements both within the country and outside whom he said were in the business of “electronic harassment” against State House and the government. He said a new set of cyber laws that the government is pushing forward will help “track them and put them away”. Ms Nabusayi said State House would terminate the contract of the service provider.
