Mr Yellow Fox

Mr Yellow Fox

You were a once green bush hound;
Your wool later camouflaged yellow.

Never Remove Me
Your tail duly drags the queues of
Naked ants and throw them to destitution.

Remember,
Fox,
You came as a needle
To stump out the thorns in our throne,
As our

New Righteous Messenger

The new bus of our nation’s movement;
You guaranteed none,
But fundamental change.

But now reversed impartiality
Wells amid your clique of raiders
In the general band yearning
For more and more.

And that’s your might,

 You are a monster

With your heart lost in wit and want,

With your soul floating on airs of greediness .
                                                             Rurekyera Geofrey

Why President Museveni and the NRM should reject the 45 years Amendment

By Katabarwa Ronald ronaldkatabarwa@gmail.com Record straight, I write this as an NRM supporter and leader at some level. Two weeks ago, news came in on how the NRM parliamentary Caucus was plotting yet another constitutional amendment to bar those below 45 years from running for President. We must first remind ourselves that this is the same Article that was amended in December, 2017, kicking out the 35 and 75 as age cap for the Presidency. I am opposed to this Amendment and my point of departure with the caucus, is informed by four areas. However, I will need guidance if I am wrong. We cannot amend the constitution out of panic. Such an amendment clearly shows that the NRM parliamentarians have started doing what they do best- panicking. President Museveni throughout the ages has been daring where nobody else dares.  He has been Amending the Constitution towards bravery rather than cowardice. In 1971 while in Nairobi, John Kazoora(Uncle to maama J...

THE BITTER, BETTER ON KENYA ELECTIONS

Tuesday 8, august 2017 was a big day in Kenya and indeed East Africa, as voters exercised their electoral democracy.  Indeed, the whole of East Africa had its sights on Kenya, because the classical French saying, that:'when France sneezes, Europe catches a cold' does appeal to East Africa, for the latter is arguably East Africa's best Economy.  But let us interest ourselves on a few bitter and better glimpses of this election and what we can learn from as a country. To begin with, I must accept that the Kenyatta government needs thumbs up for keeping the opposition alive. Kenyatta never even at one time did he interfere and trounce on the activities of the opposition, not withstanding their campaigns. It would sound ideal that that is what every government anywhere is ought to do, but ask yourself how many governments, especially in Africa observe such 'political hygiene'. Therefore, there he deserves a credit. It is also common place in African politics, that s...

THE WRATH OF UNIVERSAL EDUCATION IN UGANDA

In 1997, as a fulfilment of the 1991 Jomtien resolution, the Government of Uganda initiated the Universal Primary Education(UPE),  in which four children per family would access free education in government schools. Realising the need and increasing pupil population, the government took up the audacity of educating all children from the initial four per family. Admittedly, the number of school going children increased by six digits.   However, if we take a look at the status quo of our education before the inception of the program in terms of its quality, one is left wondering whether uganda was ready for the program, or was just bound by the requirement as per the jomtien. The reality is that Uganda had a functional Primary system before 1997, which was marred by the introduction of UPE. In fact, the biggest mistake the government committed was increasing pupil populations with staticism in resource, which means the student population surpassed the available school re...
