In response to the messages, the CDF expressed his gratitude on X: "I want to thank the thousands of people from Uganda and beyond who sent me birthday wishes. Your love and support mean a lot to me."

"Today (Wednesday), Charlotte, our youngest daughter, and I planted 50 trees with soldiers of the SC.

"It is said that the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, but the second best time is today. Let us all do our part in protecting the environment by fighting deforestation.

"We also inaugurated the Neonatal Special Care Unit at Dr. Ronald Bata Memorial Hospital in Entebbe Barracks.
