Social media users in Uganda are fascinated by pictures circulating online showing Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja addressing a virtual summit from the side of a road in the east of the country.
Ms Nabbanja shared a video of her speaking to the Global Disability Summit. It showed a member of staff holding up the country's flag behind her chair with her official vehicles in the background:
— Rt. Hon. Nabbanja Robinah. PRIME MINISTER (@RobinahNabbanja) February 18, 2022
The video attracted some cynical comments, from the state of the road to amusement about the person holding the flag - however, most tweeter users have generally applauded her.
"Show them that an office is not only that magnificent air-conditioned room," one person said.
