By the way, we are not living in an Utopian State, where all laws and policies
are implemented to the last dot. No such Country exists in this World,
Developed Norway had a nasty experience last year at the Island of Latoya where
a white supremacist killed innocent holiday makers. Presidents have been
assassinated in USA when they are a first World, are there no laws and policies
in the States. Yes Uganda is bedeviled with Corruption, and all vices. It is
not the lack of implementation of laws and policies, it is as a result of
multifaceted reasons. This argument would have been tenable if there were no
laws and policies, but our forefathers who invented international standards,
laws, policies, codes of ethics e.t.c did not invent the same for mere
implementation but as guidelines on how society should be governed.
