Weak Strategic Plans And Implementations Could Manifest into Worse Coronavirus Infections in Uganda - Says Maracha Constituency MP Oguzu Lee Denis.


Lack Of Critical Resources And Strategic Leadership Could Undermine Uganda's Effort to Combat The Spread Of Coronavirus and avert its  Damages in All Forms.

According to Action Aid International, Uganda lost 1.4 trillion in tax incentives to companies like Bidco-- resources that could've aided the fight against COVID-19. In 50 days from now, it modelled if we continue the current path, nearly 9.4m Ugandans could be infected with COVID-19 yet fake news has been going round that MoH has spent 120bn in the fight against COVID-19. While this misinformation is to government's knowledge, nobody has come out to deny nor confirm. According to reliable sources, finance so far has only managed to avail Ugx 5bn to MoH and proposed about 250bn to deal with the virus with bulky of the money going to the security forces rather MoH which needs it most.  Since January when the virus was confirmed, Uganda only managed to setup committees last week. From reliable sources, Hon. Ruth Aceng and her team who have given her all are getting won out due to inadequate support from government. There is no better time in our country's history to invoke the supplementary appropriations and budget readjustment provisions in laws. That moment is now yet the Executive bestowed with that leadership is adamant. As the curve peaks in a few days, it was hoped necessary supplies would be in place, welfare issues catered for and some sort of economic bailout in place for the most vulnerable to pave way for total lockdown but this doesn't seem forthcoming. According to grapevines, failure to explain why 120bn could not reach grassroots is already demoralizing many frontiners. This is compounded by absence of PPEs and basic supplies.  Local governments and RDCs who are key in the fight against COVID-19 are said to be even more demoralised on hearing that they've only been budgeted 20bn and 15bn respectively-- something further bound to undermine efforts to keep speed of spread of the virus at bay. It's at this point that country is yearning for leadership. I hope someone will provide it to save us from COVID-19 which has the potential to cost us life time opportunity.

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent.  It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu".  We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service.  If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Here is Why Our Utterances For Praying Jesus And God To Come Liberate Ugandans, May Be Misplaced. This Phrase is like inform of a Letter To Some Categorized Section Of Ugandans.

https://m.facebook.com/yusufosuta/photos/a.1896701010557789/2070383359856219/?type=3 OPEN LETTER TO NRM SUPPORTERS - NATIONAL ROBBERS MOVEMENT. .................................................................................. Last week of March, a friend told me to pray for Uganda.  I told him that he was an Idiot and we have prayed for too long and we are still hungry and sick and Jesus is not coming soon to liberate us. He then ignored the STUPID and sent me a picture we all now know.  It got me totally messed up.  This guy was telling me to pray then sends a picture of men bowing down in blood.  He might have meant guns but I blocked him because his utterances of praying for Uganda were misplaced. I unblocked him 3 weeks later and asked him about praying and assassinations.  His reply "eithrr prayers or guns or both". I hate violence with a passion.  So he is now blocked in like FOREVER. Do you feel safe?  Do not feel safe. Uganda regim...

CAN I CHANGE MY MIND ABOUT THE INHERITANCE I RECEIVED AND ASK FOR SOMETHING ELSE ?.

Okello lost his wife 20 years ago and decided to only focus on their Mateo, Yona and Yosefu. 20 years later, Okello had 7 acres of land, a successful poultry business, and sinotrucks for hire. Early this year, Okello got a call telling him that one of his trucks knocked a boda boda. Okello decided to rush to see if he could sort it out before police became involved. Unfortunately, he never made it, as he was entering the main road, another trailer rammed into him and killed him instantly.   After Okello had been laid to rest, his sons sat down and divided the property amongst themselves. However, of late, Yosefu the last born has started complaining that he was cheated, and he wants to be given something else because most of the chicken in the chicken business died of a fever.   Can ...
