I agree entirely with Stella. It is also a testament to how Petty our politics is. I am not a Bobi wine supporter but I have a deep respect for the man. While many hide behind social media and armchair theorizing, this young man actual moved from rhetoric to action. It is a rare trait which even M7 recognizes because he had the guts to do the exact same thing some 40 odd years ago What does failing ‘O’ level maths have to do with anything? How many people, even on this forum passed mathematics with distinction? How many perused…
Its not the Anti-Sugarcane squad: It is the Voice of the people
My dear sister Sheila, Allow me to address you as such because fate brings us together. First, your father and my mother are alumni of Bishop Tucker Theological College and have served the church faithfully. But also because we find ourselves on the different sides of the aisle-which is normal. I have read with concern your article entitled “Bugoma Forest: What the anti-sugarcane squad is not saying”. First, it is wrong to label whoever is standing against the alleged sale and conversion of Bugoma forest into sugarcane as broadly anti-sugarcane. We are not against sugarcane growing but rather against land…
Best of WhatsApp: 100 YEARS FROM NOW!
100 years from now will be the year 2120. By then, every single reader of this piece will be underground, our bodies have become part of the soil. During that time, our fate in respect to paradise or hell would have been made known to us. Meanwhile above the soil, our houses that were left behind would have become either home for others or demolished for better structures. Our clothes would have become destroyed or rags for others and replaced by more recent trends; our cars will be on display as historical artefacts by others or recycled for more advanced…
The best of WhatsApp: There is tomorrow.
I own a company, none of my staff knew me as the owner except the Manager and the Secretary. (I had told them not to disclose my identity). I don’t usually go for a visit. One day, I visited the company and I saw my Ex-wife, who had thrown me out of my own house. I asked the manager and he said she is one of their staff. I instructed the Manager to promote her to the Personnel Officer, gave her a car, a bungalow, garden boy, security and other emoluments. An undeserved position though, of which he did. A…
I’ve sweated for my livelihood, but my crime is where I was born from
I lost my father when I had just cloaked 12 years young. Coming from a polygamous family, I spent the next two years in court due to fights over the little estate of the deceased. Almost everything was lost to conflict, hatred, witchcraft and selling property at night. We went back to zero. I immediately started to fend for myself, feeling the heat of lack, shortage and inadequacy of everything. I know what it means to lack fees every term, not having scholastic materials every term, and walking for 16kms every day going to and from school. I know what…
Best from WhatsApp: Personal Declaration
Dear all, I want to make it categorically clear to all candidates aspiring for political candidature that I am handicapped and therefore will not be in a position to support any regardless. I am overwhelmed by requests to support hence all sundries please take note to avoid disappointments & dejections on this occasion. All the best in your upcoming endeavours. Note: I received this article on my WhatsApp mobile as a forward. I do not write it. And I don’t know the original author/s. The article will teach you a lesson, and that is why I am sharing it. If…
