Uganda: The Unfolding Reality

An excerpt from the The East African of November 7th - 13th 2005 (The East African is published weekly by the Nation Media Group) ran a headline thus: Transition: Donors now commend Museveni and Ignore calls to freeze aid. The heasd of the EU delegation last week said the handling of Dr. Apollo Milton Obote's burial and the return of Dr. Besigye showed political maturity.

Now I can confidently add today that the Head of the EU Delegation to Uganda H.E Mr. Illing Signurd could have been very wrong. I have the conviction that he could have wished he never issued such a statement. Barely a fortnight after his hearsay, the same hunk was sweating and fanning himself miserably. The price of a doubting Thomas! He had to witness first hand that a Besigye who barely a week was at His Excellency's office was now in the dock being charged with TREASON, RAPE and another offence to do with concealment of information. And that this man Besigye had this I told you so attitude towards the Excellency! Your Excellency, the sun sets so early here in Uganda!

His Excellency Mr. Signurd Illing was not the only diplomat in court and witnessing. Let me inform: if you happen to come from the following countries: US, UK, Holland ( I like Van Persie and the Dutch Masters of Arsenal FC) and eleven other countries, my! my! your diplomat accredited to Uganda could not stand the heat in the same court. These diplomats were on national TV fanning themselves - and can you quess with what else!? newspapers!. I have never seen diplomats so crowded!

I however must credit these diplomats they yearned for the truth and endured the humid tropical heat in the Ugandan court - in the very word of Prof. Latigo: "The situation has improved, but improving does not mean all is well" - I hope everything gets well. Now the diplomats know a thing or two about Uganda!

The Giraffe sees so far! Dr. Besigye son of a Mr. Kifefe once proclaimed that he wouldn't be the son of Kifefe if Museveni does not (re)run for presidency come 2006! Many doubted him then. By the time you read this I can say the Dr. is indeed the dear true son of Mzee Kifefe! The Giraffe saw far! H.E General YK Museveni is reported to have picked nomination forms by the time you read this! He can legally stand for Presidency of the Republic of Uganda and Chaimanship of the NRMO! General Museveni confirmed Dr. Besigye's fears!

PRESIDENT Yoweri Museveni has finally succumbed to pressure from NRM party members and picked nomination forms signaling his intention to contest for the Presidency in the 2006 polls. Get the details here.

The current situation doesn't need a giraffe! How sad for the giraffe to see hell approaching and yet can't rush into the rathole! He has been captured! I will update from a rathole. The giraffe is in safer custody langishing in a government jail!

A giraffee sees so far but rats are safer in the ratholes!

Can you believe Kampala witnessed commandos style activity at the High Court of Uganda!? And that four treason suspects could have been kidnapped from Uganda's Pensacola!? Just believe. Ok!?

...the handling of Dr. Apollo Milton Obote's burial and the return of Dr. Besigye showed political maturity...how ironic!!

Letter to Lady Liberty!

Henry Owera you are one of a kind. You are the ...est ...est whatever! Yak! Yak!

Now I hate flatterings and I translate them to be cynically tailored. If I am mistaken, then how about this: Katrina struck the US and death befell New Orleans. What could a poor country like Uganda do to help the bereaved Americans - do you thing donating some Ugandan Shillings was the wisest they could do!? A dream came to past because the Pearl of Africa "donated" to the World's Only Super Power - A donation to the United States of America!

Now I can't hate America. I love Uganda meanwhile. But J! Of all donations Uganda could afford, was money the thing to send to the grieving Americans!? George Bush must excuse me. I am not against donations to the US but how could Ugandans contribute a mere 0.00004% of whatever effort the states need and we also claim to have donated!?

Honestly, the best form of Aid Uganda could have sent the Americans should have been non monetary. If Uganda really wanted to show its concern for the US, believe me the best aid should have been "KYEYO"! Human labour was the thing to send to America! America had you wanted these, believe me the great seas wouldn't have hampered millions rolling down there - down there for refuge not to give you aid! I pray am not being sarcastic here! Home sweet home my hoof!

There are more problems home than Katrina has caused. Katrina victims have the hope things will get better but here the pearl of Africa the land ever green, people are starving. Lady Liberty, Ugandans are starving! Liberty, many Ugandans would have ran to the aid of Americans not to do anything serious in particular but to (r)aid them of their possessions! They could have robbed the katrina victims of the little possessions afloat!

I wouldn't term any monetary donatations from Uganda to the US anything near to AID! It was simply an investment! Investment! Its was a ground work for future begging! America! Ugandans scratched your back and they are looking forward to you scratching their backs! While you moaned, others saw the opportunity of flattering you! Believe you me, it was a gimmnick!

The Tsunami, Katrinas and Chopper

The Tsunami, Katrinas and Chopper of these day are becoming wanton. The Gods are playing with our lives yet I can demand a revolt. Eisten is much luckier.

A series of event have gone amiss and its sad we humans can hopelessly watch as things change our norm of life. I spent more than twenty years since I winked only to be hospitalised for the very first time because of a certain careless driver. I cursed and groaned but I will only appreciate what has remained of me...life has hidden agenda for every bit of me and so you!

On behalf of the deities, I pay my condonlences to all who have remarkedly lost mothers and sisters, brothers and fathers. The victims of the Tsunami, the Katrina, and the tragic death of the John de Mabior Garang. R.I.P.

And to you who is reading this, thank your mercy you are alive. Life goes on.

Southern Sudan now looks up to the wisdon of Cmd. Salva Kiir Maryardit to fill a gap left - to create a new chain. Uganda awaits on providence as to what will become of the Pearl of Africa. We are almost there. Weep for the sons and daughters of Africa - tomorrow is so unpredicatable.

On the lighter note, surviving an accident bought me time to get to a newer level with a better you can quess whats and challenges. Thank you all who are postive. Owerahtiido - Hi. The weekend has kicked in and I demand to take you out right now. I wish i did so earlier. I hope ya in Naalya. - Its not bad to dream so allow me. Enjoy the milk and new place. I want to witness a Danish flag on ma site.

Rest In Peace, the broken link will mend!

Cdr Salva Kiir, Cdr Dr. John Garang (RIP), and Cdr Dr. Riek Machar

Vieira! Wenger!! Arsenal!

Gawaya David: Hahaha...ha, hehehe... Poor Arsenal! Vieira is boarding a plane to Italy and will not be back even after five whole years...ohohoh, hee hee hayhayhay! The whole team is up for sale! wenger may decide to sell himself as well!

This is not the news you wish to recieve early in the morning regarding your favourite Soccer team. A mockery of the system of soccer you even blindly adore. My MANU pal sent me this mockery. I is hard to forgive Wenger for allowing such an insult to my favourite club Arsenal!

Wenger has answers to sing to my eyes let alone convincing me if at all it were possible that Arsenal wont verse Viera in the Champions league tomorrow! I need a super vieira in Arsenal to be convinced let alone hitting MANU, Chelsea atleast three 7-0s Everton style! I lament but I await what our overall commander Wenger is upto otherwise a mutiny may be in the offing in the Arsenal squad! How possible is it to sell away your captain in the name of hoping!? Arsenal has literally done away with an era!

Whoever it is to replace Vieira had better be made known quickest before my prejudices kick in! My! my! my! Wenger and Arsenal have not only sold a whole Vieira but done away with job security more so that for Arsenal's Captain. Sol Campbell and or whoever it will be to replace Vieira had better know this!
I still trust Wenger but mister you have rocked my confidence in you! You better mend it ASAP!
