Masasi has been a driver for Mzee Kintu for a long time. About 2 years ago, Mzee Kintu became the MP for (Member of Parliament) for his district. One day while they were stuck in traffic jam, he ‘overheard’ Mzee Kintu talking to another MP about a suggestion they wanted to bring to parliament ‘mbu’ to make a law that every person should only have two children unless they can show if they have enough money to look after others. Masasi was worried because he currently has 13 children, and his new wife is pregnant with their 14th child, and he thinks Mzee Kintu wants to target people like him using the law. Can the government really tell him how many children he should be having? WHAT DOES THE LAW SAY? By law, as long as you are an adult (above the age of 18 years), you are allowed to get married and have children. The law does not limit on the number of children any person should have. The only thing that can limit is health, age or money. The law however requires every parent should look after their children and provide for their basic children’s rights like a home to stay, food, education, and medical care and give them emotional care as well. If a parent fails to do this, they will have committed a criminal offence known as child neglect. The government can instead encourage every person to have the number of children that they are able to look after through programs such as family planning but it cannot make family planning compulsory because it would be unconstitutional (against the law). : Rent Car Uganda

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

By Editor
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...

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.

By Editor
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...
