The Arua District LC V Chairman Hon Alfred Okuonzi, an ardent member of Rotary Club, who oriented young children on reading after 21-1-2023 Saturday's meeting with Rotary Club of Arua Eco City, said, there are many MPs and Councillors who can't stand up to debate during plenary sessions in Parliament and in various Council Halls in Uganda because of poor English.

Hon Okuonzi related their dilemma to poor reading culture, adding that, these are people who always hate to read.

Why would someone hate reading, the LC5 asked, as he urges the children to embrace "reading" if they want to pass well in schools and improve on their English grammar.

Hon Okuonzi said, they together with leaders from other Districts of WestNile region always have monthly District coordination committee meetings with Court officials which sits on every first Wednesday of every month to review all the proceedings of court.

While reading a charge seat of theft case written by a Police officer, the LC5 Chairman said, the officer wrote, "The thief stole white he goat 🐐 called boy", a narrative which made the people at the Saturday's meeting to burst into laughter.

The LC V Chairman said, it is embarrassing for a whole police officer to write such an awful English. 

Upon quoting a proverb which says, "Show me a family of readers then i will show for you people who move the world", Hon Okuonzi averred on powers of reading, adding that, majority of a Country's population and World's population is ruled and suppressed by those with information and grammatical vocabulary, that is why people with poor English always endup abusing people during intellectual debates and discussions.

The LC V Chairman has appealed to all the parents in WestNile region and Uganda to embrace and motivate their children into reading culture.

The only way for you to mesearu to the standards of the contemporary world is only through reading, he lamented in his closing remarks.

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...

President Museveni Praises Soldiers for Torturing Bobi Wine in Arua on August 2018.

        President Museveni at the passout of police officers in Masindi Friday https://www.facebook.com/1829407613953796 President Museveni has praised his Special Forces Command [SFC] guards for properly and legally beating National Unity Platform [NUP] presidential flagbearer, Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine. “The other day, there was a fracas in West Nile where our young friend Bobi Wine was fighting security people,” Museveni said Friday while passing out police recruits at Kabalye Training School in Masindi district. “I think they beat him a bit and then they came and said a Member of Parliament has been beaten. I said let me study and see how he was beaten. I found the man had been beaten in the right way,” Museveni explained. “This was because…I think this was SFC people who are not police-minded. They are used to doing other things. But somehow they managed to act properly, I was surprised.” When they [SFC] went where this young man was in the room, he had ca...

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...
