24-August-2022.

Below here are the excerpts from the Facebook Account of Hon Oshino Rashid, Councillor representing Bazaar Ward in Central Division Arua City.

………………………………………………………………………..…..………………………………………

Arua city this morning,,Last evening 23-8-2022 Heavy down pour in Westnile destroyed properties worth millions the worst affected was Gurua cell Bazaar Ward.

Where 24 house holds were affected, people's items and food were washed as a result about 200 people slept hungry,,

I want to thank The area youths for the quick emergency exercise they offered to the vulnerable people,the pregnancy, the elderly and the children.

I also want to thank the DPC Arua central and Red cross Arua for the efforts they made to minimize the hazard created by disaster, we thank God that no life Lost.

The flooding in Gurua cell Bazaar Ward was basically Engineering disaster which is man made and such happens due to negligence, error in engineering which leads to improper selection of materials and sites, as such debris was supplied 2 weeks ago and poured on Lumumba road which blocked the available installed culverts that later led to flooding.

Due to unethical behavior the flood has exposed infrastructures such as roads and buildings to more risks of structural damage, wearing out and aging quickly thus increasing maintainance costs,

The people of Gurua immidiately need food relief such that affected families can recover and return to normal,

Gurua Drainage must properly be built as a mitigation measure,

Lumumba road must quickly be worked on Infact today because the debris poured can still cause more serious risks if it rains again today,,

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.
