The reason why Fedesnet was shut down was because all these questions were 
asked. What you are discussing here is actually not new these are old 
discussions where in Fedesnet men like Kasangwawo and WBK tried to rummage the 
discussion through and silenced every one. Now what is different this time 
around is that UAH is not a Federal forum, or you would have been un-subscribed 
already. WBK asked Mwami Kibuuka to unsubscribe me and I was unsubscribed for I 
remained on a single question, what will be the relationship of Mengo with the 
Federal government in Kampala? It was interpreted as a diverting question and I 
was kicked out. The forum died for they lost so many people and the questions 
remained. What is the cost also became a hot topic, but it was also defined as 
a diverting question. So the attacks you have today should not scare you we 
have seen it already, you see you are supposed to embrace federalism but never 
consider its costs. EM is strange to oppose Federalism in Uganda when he is 
enjoying its fruits in Canada, now when you line its failures in the same 
Canada, no we are not using Canada’s federalism we are creating our own. And 
one can opine that Uganda is holding together today thanks to the unitary 
system, many of these crappie minds that are so uncivilized to a point of 
killing their own children will perish into un-civilization if you ever allow 
them to lead their people.

 

Start  by understanding why the unitary system is failing then fix it.

Madam Rhita,

 

Read through my posts on issue and find out why I ask for the cost, I also find 
it amazing that those who label me anti-Federo always jump over the line in my 
posts where I clearly mention my love for a federal government and I have gone 
further to give my reasons why I love it so much.

 

Madam Rhita, I am told nearly all girls fantasize about their wedding before 
they are of age to get married, my question is, do you think it would be 
appropriate to get them married as soon as they start getting these wedding 
dreams or would you rather they mature to the age where they can make the right 
choice of man after all its a life time commitment? 

 

My choice to wait is my plan for making a better choice, and being a keeper, I 
really dont want to be rushed! Hope you know what I mean.

 

Eddie MD

Dr Eddie and other anti/ Federo companions, I find it absurd that you 
continuously ask pro- federalist how much it will cost to change UGANDA to 
Federo state.... Scared too soon!!! 

 

Hardly new governments can give definite figures to planned policies- stop 
asking the impossible. 

 

You're now blinded by the mere cost of change rather than embracing what could 
be a massive economic growth to our nation.

 

For pro federalist to give you a significant figure would be a blatant lie- 
why? because we currently don't know the financial figures in M7's failed 
state- the state is run on a cash economy with hardly any country savings but 
rather incurring daily debt. 

 

UGANDA is run on a hand to mouth economy- let's not forget.

 

This should not feign our efforts to embrace change at whatever cost, but 
federalists can come up with planned proportionate formulas that embrace 
Ugandan states/ districts/ regions or whatever, they would be referred to after 
transparent countrywide reform cross-examinations. 

 

Federalism advantages overwhelmingly outweigh what is on table today. 

 

Moving forward, we can look at achieving a better economy, competitive 
inter-state Labour, better infrastructure such as education, health systems( 
where we can look adopt Dr Eddie's health system formulae) on top of others. 

 

Federo shouldn't be analyzed as an end to means of corruption but a new model 
to fighting corruption can be included within.

 

Economic growth and urbanization go hand in hand- looking at Kampala- the 
current unitary system is only centralized its economy in this city. Isn't it 
clear that Kampala is thriving but there is vast regional imbalances? 

Can we ignore the fact that Kampala has reached its limit? 

 

More should be focused elsewhere by sharing it amongst the the local  community 
people themselves in every region without begging the president.... Muzeii 
atuwadde.... Agabye bibye? Nedda. 

 

The current unitary system has put all its economic eggs in one basket and this 
is limiting industrialization and other services which UGANDA can strive upon. 

 

Dr Eddie- Federalism will not strive growth in other cities spontaneously. The 
physical and political infrastructure has been abused within other regions for 
ages and thus the obvious results - " geographical growth imbalances" which we 
can either risk to try and recover via different models. What are we if we are 
afraid of that "risk"? 

 

"COWARDS"- we have died many times under the guise of cowardice.... What good 
has become of us? 

 

Your question should be - what would be the best basis for the proportionate 
share per pot and what would the calculation base on?  What powers will each 
region hold as well as central government? 

 

Will it be based on regional population( remember we haven't had a census in 
decades)? Or? 

 

We can prepare for Federalism, it might fail but let's not be afraid to fail- 
it's the only way for us to succeed.

Ndugu Ocen,

 

First of all, Mr Akim Odong, is a one off brave, smart, articulate and very 
clever Acholi/ Ugandan/ African man. I don't believe at any time that am 
smarter than him!!!!!!!! On the contrary, I think he is smarter than I am!!

 

Secondly, when I wrote that, "There is corruption in Nigeria, because the 
federal state wields more power than the states", I was implying that the 
aggregate states, as a unity, should be more assertive on policy and national 
direction than the federal state. Sounds ridiculous to a Ugandan, who has known 
no democracy and rule of law, for fifty years, but it is possible. The question 
here is, - Who is the head of the federal state, and what power does he wield? 
The last thing we want, is another Abacha of Nigeria or Kiir of S.Sudan, with 
more power than the aggregation of the federal states, in their respective 
countries.

 

The greatest important question is, -  Is it possible to have the head of state 
as the entire federal assembly??????????????????????? The answer is YES!!!!! 
The assembly can Beverly head of state, with a rotating chairperson who assumes 
authority as a functioning head of state. We can have a new chairperson every 
six month rotating through all the representatives of the 14 regions of Uganda.

 

NOW, - Before we come up with a best way forward on what federal state to use, 
we should look at other functioning federal sates and draws examples from them, 
for our unique history. We have to come up with something that is going to 
work, OR we are doomed for an unforeseeable future.

 

The best federalism is one where the federal state and the aggregate states  
cancel each other out. The best example is Switzerland.

Ndugu Ocen,

 

We don't want federalism of a Nigeria or South Sudan type. These are 
federalisms in name, not in reality. It is no wonder that Nigeria has had 
coups, counter coups and political turmoil over years. There is corruption in 
Nigeria, because the federal state wields more power than the states. People 
like Ummar Diko and Sani Abacha  fleeced off large amounts of money, because if 
their positions in a central like role. Looking at South Sudan, one sees a so 
called federal state, where one man is intent on keeping power to himself, and 
fighting off potential competitors.

 

Federalism comes in different forms, Nigeria type is no udifferent from 
centralised governments.

How much has corruption cost Uganda?  If federalism can do away with corruption 
and corruptibility then that alone will pay for the change and leave a lot of 
extra money!

 

Billions lost in ghost soldiers and other workers.

 

Billions lost in pension scams.

 

Billions lost in unneeded military hardware.

 

Need more billions lost to ponder about?

the unitary monster is taking us nowhere.you have been an advocate of regional

Ugandans,

 

To most, Mbabazi is a tear away from the old "gang" who have failed to deliver 
promises and instead exploited Ugandans for their own gains. His recent 
declaration is but a gimmick, which should be ignored. In his declaration he 
talked of a change in "system of government" without elucidating as to what 
that system would be. It is clear he has no idea what he is talking about and 
how it would be delivered. Like his rival, they have no clue as to what is good 
for Ugandans and simply carried on from their predecessors, with the same 
results.

Mbabazi would never be a first choice for Ugandans but in the current state 
anything but Museveni would do! Mbabazi needs to re invent himself by 
apologising for the exploitation of Ugandans for the last thirty years and 
counting and then embrace federalism by acknowledging that the system is broken 
and must be damped. This will provide Ugandans with a viable alternative. Other 
than, he and his nemesis are birds of the same feather albeit the sound of 
Mbabazi's drivel, disregard the substance; is more easy to the ear than the 
alternative. Mbabazi has also got to drop his arrogance. With  the assertion 
that "Ugandans do not know what they" one is reminded of the arrogance with 
which they managed to divide people and how the gullible swallowed it "hook, 
line and sinker" while singing praises way after the drummer had stopped.

For his sin, Mbabazi, with a working microphone in his hands and still alive, 
must start singing the federal message because it is the message that Ugandans 
want hear or else, he should follow the rest to the dustbin of history.
