Uganda Museum Collaborates With Software Development Firm to Create NFTs for Display on Binance Marketplace
One of Africa’s oldest museums, the Uganda National Museum (UNM), is set to create digital representations of the unique artifacts that are on display at this facility. Working in concert with software development firm Murcom, Uganda’s biggest museum is expected to display and auction the digitally represented items on Binance’s non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace.
Uganda National Museum Artifacts to Be Made NFTs
According to Murcom’s post on Medium, the “blockchain-based digital representations of the various items under the Museum’s custody” will be created using the software firm’s MUDA NFT platform. On June 24, Binance NFT will launch and both UNM and MUDA will be participants in the crypto exchange’s “100 Creators’ Campaign.”

A number of former leaders from Western and Nyanza regions, some who have been in the political cold for over a decade, are plotting a comeback in 2022 General Election.
They are banking their hopes on the ongoing political realignments in the two regions and nationally.
The politicians are angling to fill the seats to be left by governors who are serving their final terms.
Such governors are Wycliffe Oparanya, (Kakamega), Sospeter Ojaamong (Busia), Cornel Rasanga (Siaya), James Ongwae (Kisii), Okoth Obado (Migori) and Cyprian Awiti (Homa Bay).
Some of the leaders aiming to try their luck in next year s General Election have been coalescing around political kingpins.
