No Wonder She Declined To Appear At The Ceremonial Hand Over Of Vehicles.
Uganda Today: Where is the common sense Museveni was talking about recently? The regime claims to be cash-strapped. Citizens are dying of hunger in different parts of the country. The regime can barely offer any meaningful services to the people. And what do they do?
Spend billions to purchase luxury cars for former Speakers of Parliament, some of whom still hold well-paying government jobs where they already have vehicles and convoys following them around! Each week, we wake up to a new scandal, new heist. The criminals in power continue to ask the citizens:
“What can you do?” And yes, the citizens of this country must rise up at the earliest opportunity and put an end to this madness. – Kyagulanyi states in a scathing tirade directed to the president.
