EM, I think life and survival, for the average Muganda, have become more difficult to adjust to than for the migrants from the rest of the country and from as far away as Sudan, DRC, Rwanda/Burundi. It is sad that most of these new atrocities - private and commercial slaughters and child sacrifices - are committed by a people who claim to be the most educated, civilized, informed and enlightened in Uganda. I do believe that it is now a dog-eat-dog society in Buganda; it is not man against beast but beast against beast or his own species. Certainly, the Baganda holders of this ritual also know that they can't tamper with kidnapping a Kakwa or Muhima because that will spell unwarranted deluge of the common-man's tribal vengeance.
Has anyone asked why the sacrifices are being funded by the well-to-do and executed by the needy poor who themselves end up in jail but the principal gets away to UK? What is becoming of the Ganda enlightened intelligentsia who have resorted to such lowly of primitive practices and don't they think they have made the Baganda a laughing stock for the rest of the country and visitors alike?

These kids are not only Baganda but Ugandans and the very future of Uganda, how can you leave them under Mengo authority, you will end up with no Muganda come 50 years ahead. Or show me where Mengo has taken a stand to defend these little ones.
