Uganda Continues to be run by a Corrupt Political Class

2015-08-25T20:30:00+02:00

Fellow Compatriots, just think of the number of powerful people from Kigezi region that are squatting in Kampala indulging themselves in Kachabali and behaving like they’re the most civilised/Sophisticated, caring, extrovert, high morels, etc.

Today the future of Ugandans is being decided for the youth, by the NRM criminal out-fit and its band of political left-overs, and parasites. We continue to witness the training and arming of various extremists, by NRM functionaries to maim and Kill other Ugandans. The illegal activities being carried out, by criminal Yoweri Museveni’s senior interahamwe, Major Kakoza Mutale- is a clear sign that the blood sucking regime will never entertain popular democracy. However, that’s just part of the story as the notorious criminal out-fit of Congo, the M23, has been integrated in the Uganda para-military police as a special crack unit that can be deployed anytime and anywhere in Uganda.

The criminal activities being plotted against Ugandans by criminal Yoweri Museveni and his mercenaries, have not caused public outrage by the political class, as they’ve lost the voice of reason that cares about their fellow Ugandans. Instead, the political class, now has voices of self that advocates for individuals and not society at large.

Its now the norm for thieves, rapists, murderers, Pedophiles, etc. to manipulate society by using the services of professional liars (PR firms), and Consultation meetings to sanitize their criminal tendencies. That’s why we have a failed state called Uganda that has not even achieved the break-even-like in business, imagine for 30 years a business not achieving the break-even point?? Of course it’ll be a failed business. So why not a country, and why’are we still promoting the likes of Amama Mbabazi, Yoweri Museveni, etc. to run the same business for more years? Our country deserves better , and not hustlers riding on backs of communication directors such as; Josephine Mayanja-Nkangi, mirundi,etc. and behaving like born-again. toads.

Fellow Compatriots, when did t-shirts with portraits of criminals ever replace the national flag of a people? We seem to have gone back to the stone age when we didn’t have an identity, but statues and wampums. By wearing t-shirts of known criminals and turning them into cult figures, is a free-fall to backwardness-worshiping individuals with no programs to transform society for the better, demeans Ugandans as a people.

When you superficially raise a status of someone into what they’re not and will never be, then that person is bound to start behaving and believing that indeed, they’re some little voodoo god/goddess. We see it everyday in Africa when useless individuals , without a development program for the masses, are misled into becoming president by both imperialistic forces and compradors (local agents)-the results have been the destruction and tearing apart of communities.

When you look around the political landscape of Uganda, you’ll be left in tears by what the so called brainy individual say and do. Without doubt, the architects of corruption and gross human rights abuses in Uganda, tend to be Academia graduates, with great grades. However, they lack conscience and commonsense. When a deputy speaker of parliament compares a known hardcore criminal, like Criminal Yoweri Museveni to Prophet Jesus(Peace be Upon Him) ,then you begin to understand that holders of Degrees, and Diplomas, after-all they’re not that intelligent, but mere academic crammers . That’s why you’ll find them lacking original ideas for themselves, and have instead turned into professional copycats of other people’s ideas and work.

Fellow Compatriots, the murderers of our people have now become political consuls and heros to holders of colonial education. As long as the learned but not intelligent, continue to embrace known criminals for their selfish causes, then Uganda will continue to bleed. The self made prophets will continue to take our people around in endless circles of lies.

The culture of following individuals and not national programs, will continue to isolate power from the people, and instead turn political power into an exclusive entity of a few as is the case today-were power is not equally distributed in all regions and at all levels. That’s why we continue to have no diverse political actors and structures at grassroots level, because the political narrative has been distorted to suit the criminal class that came from Luwero triangle.

If you look at Criminal Amama Mbabazi’s 8 point program, you’ll realise that its a Paper meant to fill gaps in his manifesto, but not cause change on the ground. Let’s consider point 3 “Promoting equitable development where all communities and all regions of the country equally benefit from decisions made by the government.”

You see them living in mansions,Quaffing the best a kitchen can offer, Crashing & Snoring like pregnant frogs in parliament, Chronically accusing Baganda as being sectarian, occupying most juicy jobs, etc. While in their home area, leaves the most abused and deprived people on planet earth, the Batwa. No…no, I want you to imagine of powerful people from these districts; Kisoro,Kabale,Rukunjiri, and Kanungu that are either in opposition or government. How many times have you heard them mention the Batwa plight? Of course Zero!

Today, the Batwa have found themselves refugees in their own country since 1991, after being forcefully evicted from their homes in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, and unable to sustain their livelihoods and culture-Many Batwa now live in abject poverty. How could this have happened with all the powerful people from the area in high level offices??

The living conditions of Batwa are very appalling that you wouldn’t even wish your dog to live that way. Its only Batwa that use their hands as plates for food, lack access to medical facilities, lack proper habitable homes, lack representation on the Uganda political landscape, lack education, lack clean water, lack legitimacy of citizen rights, etc. I could go..on and on….

The forceful displacement of Batwa is not only in Bwindi, but anything called a forest with no compensation. As Amama Mbabazi and Yoweri Museveni’s gunmen were chasing and shooting at them, now most leave along Uganda /Congo border, a good number found themselves in Congo RDC .

Their plight makes my stomach hurt, as a good number of them ended up living in No man’s land along Uganda/DRC borders. With Criminal Museveni and Criminal Paul Kagame’s genocidal wars in Congo, many were butchered in cold blood.

Now, where has Amama Mbabazi been for the last 30 years. not in government and at one point, not heading it??

The problem with Uganda politicians, is being useless to the people they claim to represent-just imagine kigezi has three presidential wannabes. If Kiza Besigye, Amama Mbabazi, and Mugisha Muntu can’t feel the pain of the Batwa, then how do you expect them, to ever feel the pain of Ugandans?? How pathetic, that these fellas go around bragging to Ugandans that they’re Freedom fighters, while their own people lack even the basic rights??

Fellow Compatriots, Our parents didn't send us to school to just read and write, but to be useful in society. Thus, not to be mere bookworms but develop our commonsense and conscious. The institutionalised discrimination against the Batwa, has now been shifted to other communities and demography.

That’s why its imperative to get rid of Criminal Yoweri museveni and his Luwero Triangle buddies. However, our desperation should not make us go in bed with known criminals and their band of collaborators.

Uganda Political Dilemma;Part 1

2014-09-09T20:08:00+02:00

In Our Uganda Social Struggles, we have three type of People, the consumer of Information,the User of Information and the creator of Information.

Today, most Ugandans are consumers of information-they wake up and surf the web looking for what various news outlets have reported,etc. This group is very active at wanting to know... and making comments on various media, becomes almost an occupation. They tend to be living in a bubble of intelligentsia and stuck in the same time warp.

They Wake up and find out what people have written and commented, then answer all the comments using Tonto and Mandazi ideology.
Facebook and Twitter platforms becomes their life-line of social networking,thus traditional human networking becomes tiresome, as they're suffering from computer Bytes exhaustion, and their Mantra becomes, " MWANA NkOYE" I want to chill!
They know how to talk loud in local boozers and regardless of their Mandazi brains, they have and must win all the arguments.

The problem with this group, they're everywhere and come across to serious revolutionary as useful. But Wapi, Nebikwangala afazali Zero is better, because you know its Zero-just keep away from them- they're the best cowards,greedy, and gossiping too much is in their DNA. If you want to waste another 20 years waiting for something to happen...then join them.

The Way society reacts to information has changed very much,call it information fatigue,exhaustion, tiredness, languidness, languor, lassitude, and listlessness-people no longer enjoy reading long texts as they get confused...Uhh, that's how people are messed-up!

For that reason, I'll serialise this topic. Next week, I'll introduce the second(2nd) user of information. This type is very important to any revolutionary process, be it executing or countering the revolution.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh,No!!!! We'are Dead....

History teaches us that Short Revolutions have never empowered the people but a clique of individuals as we see in Uganda and Rwanda.

Yoweri Museveni's Priorities

2014-07-09T00:41:00+02:00

Every month Dictator Museveni announces a new priority for his bottle-necked regime.However,the public priority bottle has never reached the neck as regime pigs have to be fed first.

Its only in Uganda where teachers,nurses,doctors and the youth are not considered a priority.

Instead of waiting for Dictator Museveni's bottleneck fantasy, it should be our priority to send him packing.

The Uganda political landscape is built on hereditary ideology-that's why Uganda still has politicians that started running the country in the 1960's, still around and feeding Uganda with the same bullshit.

The development of Uganda has gone 50 years back and the entire country is in a very sorry state, that it will need another 50 years to fix it. This should not be blamed on the leadership alone, but the elite class- because of their greed and selfishness, they've nurtured one of the most lethal and brutal regime ever walked the face of Africa.

That's why Dictator Museveni has been able to exploit that weakness of Ugandans and he can even brag as if he owns Uganda.

The Dictator has the nerve to boast that:
"Ugandans on the other hand are lazy by nature. They have an abundance of resources here to start from and numerous examples to borrow a leaf from but they haven't moved, May be they need some special spectacles to help them see where wealth is. If it’s about mathematics, Ugandans have perfectly mastered the subtraction and division signs while our friends here from the outside countries have mastered the addition and multiplication ones. This has become an epidemic now. Some people work hard and put together a lot of wealth, but they bring forth stupid children who come and squander all the hard-earned wealth"

Uganda Art

2012-11-10T22:15:00+01:00

I created this Art as props for an African Comic & Manga Genre. The first series will feature Congo-its an experiment that will involve an interactive experience. I was one of those Kids that never enjoyed reading Comics-as they never told my story and I never, was friends with Kids that read them-they thought I was dumb-and I would drop on the floor and go in Tantrums. That experience stayed with me for donkey years-so today I've decided to let-it out! Little bastards called me dumb.....haha!

The next step will be, to animate these characters in a 3D environment.

This Art is to inspire Uganda students of Art that take their Art serious. As always, I've taken more time at looking at one aspect of Art, character design. This series is about Manga and comic design. Its not everyday you come across African Comics and Manga-though Manga is Japanese, but actually it means cartoon. Before embarking to that genre, you must consider improving your crafting skills. A well designed character will make any comic strips look great. This is very important as you need to stand-out from the crowd.

Uganda Modern Art with No Limits

2011-03-29T17:32:00+02:00

Sometimes when we put limits to our creativity,we tend to shortchange ourselves. Creativity should not have limits-i.e. African art should look like this, you should use these colors,that is offensive "political correctness from insecure people", etc.
Don't let people tell you how to be creative-create and let them judge afterwards and always allow criticism as its your driver to success. Its only losers that hate criticism-even great prophets like Jesus and Mohammed(peace be upon them) had critics.
Always enjoy your art-have fun and don't try to please [critics] as you'll never come out of the conformity cocoon. Break the rules when creating Art, don't limit yourself to mental slavery-remember your brains are there to be used and not suppressed from thinking beyond the norm...
I believe in a parallel universe, were they're multiple billions of copies of everything living on this planet, maybe another copy of you, could be living like this...hahaha!

alien planet

Alien planets could be very colorful -remember that all light has color regardless of the planet in our universe-though some light cannot be visible with naked eyes-what you might consider to be darkness(pitch black) is not the case-that's why night vision technology in its infancy,green is the most visible color-in 5-years time it could be all the primary colors RGB.

alien planet

What is so strange, is that we're all made of the same stuff but in a different chemical arrangement-all living things and weird burning planets have carbon as a common element..

So, when you die, its not your end, remember that in the beginning you were just a drop...now your solid bones-what I'm trying to say is that you're infinite because our universe started with a bang with the intention of expanding and your part of the same stuff that makes the universe. However, I'm not sure of other universes, as they're Billion.....Billion...Billion......................Billion other universes. maybe, the chemistry is different.

Maybe this could be the original you on another planet -hahaha.. Maybe in our parallel universe, weird things happen..

I believe we're all holograms and that's why we have fucked up holograms like yoweri museveni, Hosni Mubarak, Paul Kagame,Muammar Gaddafi, etc.

This Art is a continuation from the last post-inspiring Uganda students of Animation. Just like I said before, think dark and break the rules,don't chicken to experiment, because art is all about experimentation,always make sketches-planning is the key to success.

This chopper is somewhere in the virunga Area..

Let's play Art this year....I look forwards to posting some animation here sometimes this year!

The space vehicle landing...

In this issue, I'll continue from where I stopped last time...

This Art is not the usual stuff I normally do, its just that I'm trying to escape from the mindset of my usual work(3D Animation). I wanted to put out some stuff, so that Ugandan students of Animation at Makerere university can be inspired to do dark 3D art.

armada of futuristic transporters

In this piece, I was inspired by Professor Stephen W. Hawking, life in the universe documentary, Maybe some planets have life and no gravity-everything just floats, while the ground spins, endlessly-I reckon with such planet, the technology could be 1 million years superior than ours.

Outer space station

maybe, on some planets this is how they eat...

Maybe, this could be the way people on other planets go to toilet-a bit like barbecuing oneself...

transportation on planets similar to ours could be something like this...

Maybe..maybe, some planets could look like this. In next issue, I'll try to imagine how the people(Aliens) might live...

After being denied the space to express myself by (You know yourselves) various media houses and their collaborators disguised as civil society, Free Uganda Critical Media has allowed me to use their platform. I appreciate guys!!

I'll kick off with experimental Art:

My Fans want to know what I'm up too???

I can say to them that, you won't be disappointed with what is to come-just be patient with me!

I consider this art as work still in progress..,call it props for some mind-bending art to come!

This Art is from a Vision I have for Kivu and Kigezi, South-Western? Uganda.
As I continue to experiment..I thought that, would be good not to just delete the work but share it.
Maybe sharing the project will help me to visualise better.
