Regretting the Past; If i had the chance to become Young again, i would spend my time to make money instead of getting married - Former Vice President Bukenya.



 Former Vice President Gilbert Balibaseka Bukenya, who recently finalized his divorce, has regretted getting married and wished he had spent his youth making money.


Bukenya, in a sit-down interview with Sanyuka’s news vulture Natalia Ozie, claims that marriage is overrated and, in most cases, a waste of time for many people.


Before his recent divorce from his wife Dr. Magaret Bukenya, the former VP and educationist had been in winging it (marriage) since 1974.


The former VP was dragged to court by his wife seeking a divorce for alleged adultery which apparently compelled him to leave their marital home in Ntinda and set camp in Garuga, Wakiso District.


Bukenya did not object to the divorce, arguing that the couple had long mutually consented to separate in 2003, as a matter of fact. He added that he could not live a celibate life which has led him to engage in   flings here and there.


The former VP equates the situation to a biblical quote that emphasizes that there is a time for everything, a time for sorrow, and a time to rejoice.


“Leave alone the things that you see out there that when you get married it is forever and ever. We had different lifestyles and realised we were not compatible hence agreed to separate, she is happy and I am also happy, a free man,” Bukenya stressed.


He is against the idea of ever getting married again and insists it may have been a mistake in the first place.


“If I were to go back in age, I would never get married, I would spend my entire life and energy making money,” he maintained.


Ironically, Bukenya was speaking on a show whose tagline is dubbed “unapologetic” but he was quick to apologise to those who could be hurt by the statement he made.


Nonetheless, he insisted that it is his main opinion, semantics aside.


“When I was younger, I would wonder why some people were not getting married, I realised why later when I was married myself. I am sorry I hope what I have said does not cause me to be abused on social media but the truth is marriage is a form of trap and I do not expect anyone to expect me to get married even now,” Bukenya his case.

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.

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...

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 ...
