Only Museveni Could Pull It Off
I first saw Baby Cool when he was in town, like many peddlers of various
trinkets and may be even flesh, to cash in on a gathering of Ugandans. It was
at a third-rate watering shack. He jumped on stage and began belting something,
which I learned later on was his latest hit song. From the faces and reactions,
nobody cared. I can’t remember when he left the stage. So, another “superstar”
fell flat on his butt—never making it in the big easy. Tabu Ley, a.k.a
Rochereau, could not even sell more than ten tickets in the Kilimanjaro in its
heydays. He had to go back and become a mere minister (a downwardslide by his
creative standard) in his native dysfunctional country. Only Miriam Makeba
could have made it had she not married the telegenic firebrand Black Panther
Chermichael. The white liberal establishment abandoned her like a black child
would do to a black doll.
Seriously, I wish Baby Cool a quick recovery from the wounds inflicted by a
police state, out of control. Especially when his dad is such a cool dude who,
unfortunately will never be president of United States of Uganda even if he
tries.
