FOOL ME GOOD SITUATION. Yes I go frank, O.K!!! I am convinced. The mite of the "chicken and egg" situation is no longer a silhouette clouding African horizon. It is live and deadly paralyzing all institution. We have always known about ambivalences in life.That politics is always and at all times ambivalent. But when criminality and correctness is but an object for definition, we know time has come for the surgeon to operate himself. Talking to Ugandan has made me become more convinced than ever, that stagnation, negative development, political vandalism, corruption, nepotism, tribalism......(help me draw the list: add any of your own, it will fit)...., permeates our continent because we are African. YET, IT IS NOT BIOLOGICAL!!!! Our politicians are corrupt because they are still one of our type That is where the chicken and egg situation comes in. Which one came first?! Our corrupt leaders leaders or corrupt society?!Like I was saying, talking to Ugandan has made me open my eyes. LOOK AT THIS KNOCK-OUT: I asked about a honest obedient civil servant I used to know in KCC. A man of correctness. A democracy personified and the Ugandan answered: ".....Aah Laduma, that one.., don't even ask about him. That idiot is just there working, working, working. The guy is sitting on jackpot and he is just working working working...He doesn't even know how to eat!! Everybody is eating and himself he is just working working working. Me if they put me in that position.., hm-mm, one day only..., I will be the riches man in Uganda....Is just joking.,playing. If they put me there, I will tear the damn place completely..." I stared at my fellow Uganda with pity and dismay. How pathetic! I realized Ugandan think differently. Here is Ugandan commoner (just coming direct from home) talking. So in his world corruption, embezzlement etc are not only accepted norm but also something respected. Hmm what a world. The one who has not cheated remains a bullshit until he cheats. How about this: Senior government officials (so called upper class) parties. A senior police officers says about a ministers son: ".......Man if you see A's son, wow that guy is though. I am telling you, that boy can drive.....Man, I saw boy last week take the fathers Pajero. Oh boy, what a speed!!.....I am telling you the guy tore from Kololo to Masaka....., one hour only and he was back. I tell you the guy can drive...Hmmm, he is so short he sits on pillows to see the road but, he tears..." That is really pathetic is it not?! Here is a senior government police officer. A trained body guard talking. A law enforcement officer talking about a boy who is barely thirteen (13!!!!!). First of all, he should have ensured that the boy NEVER drives at that age. More so, never drives without a drivers license. Yet further, he should have the boy's father ( in this case the minister) answerable for allowing the son drive his car unlawfully. Instead, he is proud of and applaud the criminal. Yes that is the soil!!joyficateNoc'l gaumoy
