#DELIBERATE_NEGLIGENCE_TO_WESTNILE_PEOPLE. YOU CAN NOT LOCK MILLIONS OF POOR STARVING UGANDANS AT THE EXPENSE OF IMPORTING CORONAVIRUS FROM NEIGHBORS (FOREIGNERS).

It seems Ministry Of Health is testing patience of Ugandans.

You cannot lock in innocent 45m Ugandans and keep importing expensively Corona virus from neighbours simply because we are land locked.

What motivation do they have to assume Ugandans will remain loyal even in the face of hunger and monetary poverty? It should be noted that loyalty and discipline has limits. An hungry man is angry. You cannot convince anyone anymore to stay indoors, closing down thousands of businesses, hiking unemployment, thwarting education, sabotaging many institutions, spending over $65,000 per day on testing non citizens and treating them using Ugandan resources without an exit plan yet assume citizens are that gullible to continue dancing to your neocolonial tunes.

Cushioning the well off at the expense of the already squeezed between rock and a hard surface doesn't make sense. Given Uganda's current very poor (near non existent) social safety nets, the people now think otherwise; MoH is MAFIA. Given this school of thought, when their last line of defense; subsistence is crossed, the inevitable will happen (Frantz Fanon's The Wretched of the Earth).

If untrue; the MoH therefore, should come out clear and avoid seeming to fall into mafia trap by jumping out while there is still time. If lay men can see, why can't the professionals??? Something somewhere is not adding up.

*WHAT CAN BE DONE*

1. Let companies fast track testing of all their truck drivers and allow those healthy to drive those trucks to the border.

2. Given the uncertainties along the way from the port up-to the border, we should allow relay driving such that known negative Ugandan drivers pick the trucks from the border points (upon proper sanitization of the trucks) and complete the journey. This is far cheaper in terms of testing, isolation, tracking and treatment. It also reduces alarms akin to spiking confirmed country cases.

3. Keep the airport locked to passenger flights.

With the above, lock down can be eased systematically so many Ugandans can get back to work and fend for themselves and their families as opposed to the current unsustainable dependence on hand outs.

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...

Parliament Urges Government to Provide Shs 4 Billion to Media Houses to Run Awareness Campaign on Tourism in Uganda.

Parliament also urged Gov’t to provide additional Shs4Bn to UTB to engage international and national media houses in production of positive media stories for improved destination image, following reports of drop in number of tourists from US, Europe and China visiting Uganda. "The National Development Plan targeted to cumulatively attract 281,760 International Tourist arrivals from US, Europe & China but only 67,252 arrivals were registered by the end of the first half of FY 2023/24. The U.S, Europe & China were key target source for leisure tourist who stay longer than business tourists. However, statistics show that international arrivals from the aforementioned areas have continue to drop. The UTB requires Shs4Bn to engage international & national media houses in production of positive tourism stories to improve destination perception in light of recent controversies that shade the destination in a bad light. However, this has remained unfunded,” said La...
