Uganda’s 12th Parliament has completed its first 100 days, marked by speeches, committee formations, and the outlining of new leadership goals. The crucial question now shifts to tangible results and assessing the actual changes brought about by the new session. While ambitions have been stated, the real test lies in implementation and demonstrable impact. This period mirrors a moment of reckoning, reminiscent of challenges faced by political figures in works like Arthur Koestler’s *Darkness at Noon*. The focus now turns to whether this Parliament will deliver on its promises and enact meaningful change for Uganda. The initial phase is over; the work of governing has truly begun for legislators in Uganda.
