Uganda has over the years been struggling with not only economic policies but also sporting events. Since the qualification of the African Cup of Nations last year in Gabon,  Uganda is finally starting to become a powerhouse in African football. Great development and progress has been made by the FUFA team that governs all footballing activity in the country. The Cranes has been totally dominant with East African football for a while now but previously  had failed to take that on into the other bigger tournaments including AFCON and World Cup. Amazingly,  in the space of one year,  the Cranes have managed to participate in both competitions with the latter in qualification.  If all is well with the preparations,  we won't be surprised to see Uganda Cranes once again beat the odds and participate in their first ever World Cup tournament in history in Russia. We should just keep our eyes wide open for this strong committed crop of players coming up in the African country.

There some features in new Android Oreo that might be quite different from the previous Android OS. 1) Background Activities Numerous background activities keep running that usually drain battery. Android O might be changing how these activities use battery by limiting them. 2) Picture in Picture You will now be able to watch videos on a small virtual screen while finishing up on a task. In a way, great way to multitask. 3) Notification channels and dots Users will be able to change behaviour of channels through app notifications. You can restrict what is relevant to you. 4) Autofill APIs Still struggling with autofill? Well, seems Android just listened to you. You will now be able to access all password managers much easier when the operating system works with the third party apps to ease password and other information used in third party apps.

There has been a fresh breath for most road users. But how good are electric cars as their existence continues to take on. Many questions have been asked over the past few years over the existence of electric cars. How far can the electric car go? Why is there advice from experts on charging the electric car and boiling water at the same time bad enough? These questions and more shall continue to be asked until the electric car can surely suit many users.

With transfer speculation still on, many may argue that there is still business to be done. But straight at it, I believe there only 4 strong contenders for the English premier league this season. The Manchester clubs no doubt, Chelsea and Tottenham. Of these, I still believe Chelsea are the strong favorites because the simply know how to grind out results even while under pressure. The team has stuck together even amidst a lot of Costa talk and speculation on the manger' s future and board decisions. Man City have a great squad but I don't think they can match up Chelsea's winning mentality. The same applies to Man United, they have had a good couple of preseason games and great league games so far but that won't be enough. Mid way the season, the leaks are more likely to show up for a non consistent starting squad and many games to be played domestically and Europe. Spurs on the other hand still look the great Tottenham from last season but perhaps lack of great impro

Africa has been isolated for a long time. Despite all the terrorism, bloodshed, poverty, insecurity and disease. A lot of attention is mainly focused on Europe and America giving Africa little attention. When terrorism attacks, insecurity and alarming situations happen, most focus is instead lit on first world countries and focus is always on them. Yet many people ate suffering in Africa as well. Relief aid comes in but the attention the world gives to Africa is inferior as it would have been the opposite for foreign countries. We believe in a whole world and global village. Alot has been said and done but its only now that it counts. We ought to forget the past and believe that Africa will not be inferior for long. Its people are rising and with time, this will be solved. Equality and freedom is the prayer of a young helpless child down in the Southern Sahara.

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are transforming Africa. Across the continent, new startup digital enterprises are emerging, while existing small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are increasingly leveraging ICTs to expand. Intensified use of ICTs presents Africa’s SMEs with opportunities in virtually every sector as well as room to create jobs. The pace of transformation across Africa, however, is slow and one of the major barriers is poor ICT infrastructure. A number of countries are reaping the benefits of greater digital penetration but others are watching from the sidelines. In Kenya for example, the M-Pesa mobile money disruption has enabled many SMEs to be more efficient.
