Comments
Otherwise, never and nowhere in the African Tradition are human remains (skulls) put on display on roadside the way it was done in Luweero bythe NRA/M leadership.
Their experience is worse than whatever Uganda went through, yet they are thousands of miles ahead of us. They are doing something good. I hope that Uganda's delegation will learn from Vietnam, particularly its approach to Industrialisation and foreign investment.
Why are Ugandans unconcerned about themselves, their kids, tommorow...& just ensure their land belongs to Museveni's family & they remain slaves, in the zone they pretend is formed by their tribal lands, yet they are slaves of the migrant family?
