As Uganda's Speaker of Parliament Rt Hon Oulanyah's Burial is Set to Cost Shs 2.5b ($695,850) and Some People are Making Noise Over it, Here are Some of the Expensive Graves in the World.

Death is something no one born of a woman can actually escape because it’s part of life, something that everybody has to live with it whether we like it or not. We’ve also seen the wealthy succumb to it, and the strong and powerful, it’s only fitting that we’re ever ready to respond to their call when the time is due, because it certainly a will, just that all timing varies.

One most important thing to human beings is that they have grasped the idea of living and even dying by doing so they plan for themselves a final resting place after their departure on this earth.
They do So by having a very lavish coffin, some in a way that respects their lagacy by decorating their own graves on this earth before they die.
The Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, which has now been known as the most costly tomb in the whole world, does not, however, succeed in any amount of decoration. King Khufu, who happens to be the Pharoah of Egypt in the year 2589 B. C. , was been buried under the 6. 5 million tons of stones making up the pyramid.
The Tomb which by then Costs over  $5 billion ($5, 000, 000, 000) The Valley of Kings is now estimated at the cost of 750 million dollars in Egypt, the nearest to it.
Experts are of the opinion that even with today’s technology, recreating this same pyramid will cost even more than  5 billion dollars. It’s wasn’t made in gold, but strange enough, as one would ever imagine it’s simply made up of stones. It is immense in scale, measuring two hundred and thirty meters on each side with a height of 150 meters, and is the largest tomb which can be found anywhere in this world and it was constructed with an estimated of  2. 3 million stones.
Nevertheless, this important achievement was only accomplished by one forced labour.

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...
