There a hundreds or even thousands of millennials, who are out there trying to reshape their communities, they can be seen in sports, arts, and entertainment, in the fashion realms, in the depth of the service sector, in construction and IT, statehood and academia starting up ventures that can grow into conglomerates, but they are overshadowed by many factors and realities they almost have no…

The Predicament of Constant Consultancy Procurement in Government, A Closer Look
A few years back I discussed this with my old man and he convinced me that outsourcing was healthy for any government, from his accounting background, he took me through a rabbit hole of costs using the example of maintaining cars at a well-established private garage as opposed to the many mechanics that were once employed by the state. When governments roll out projects to the private sector the…

The Impact of the Israel-Palestine conflict on world economics
The last time an international War started, the world economy was drastically interrupted and growing commodity prices were simply justified by the phrase “Russia-Ukraine” even before one explained the supply chain challenges. There is yet another International war that has been blown out of proportion. The Israel-Palestine conflict has been going on for the last 75 years and Israel has not…

Inanity
In post-1986 Uganda, there exists an interesting dynamic where some Millennials in the informal sector tend to look down upon their peers working in the civil service. What’s intriguing is that both groups often benefit from family connections, as parental support plays a significant role in accessing opportunities, whether in government positions or starting businesses. the invisible hand…

NGOs are worse than Warlords in an African lens
In contemplating the enduring presence of organizations striving to combat poverty in our country for over half a century, one cannot help but ponder their underlying purpose and longevity. Are they truly dedicated to eradicating poverty, or have they become entities that evolve with the seasons, constantly seeking new missions and challenges? It leads one to question the very nature of…

Climate change like the slave trade is a travesty to Africa
In a world of capitalism’s relentless grasp, Exploiting Earth’s resources, an environmental clasp. The West, imperialist, their history defined, Benefiting from slave trade, a dark bind. Great Britain and the U.S., their hands stained, With the profits of slavery, a legacy ingrained. Government guns, banks, and opium’s lure, Built empires, secured wealth, that’s for sure. Annexations,…

The Hype and Overating of Closure
Closure, a notion shaped by emotions’ tide, A generation’s narrative, feelings collide. Is it end, peace, or doors firmly closed? A fairytale’s jest, a story proposed. Woke minds ponder love’s simplified art, Coffee, hikes, attempts to soothe the heart. Rhyming reasons, seeking explanations, From those we stand against, our frustrations. Yet love defies qualification’s hand, No quantification,…

Closure's Myth
Closure’s myth, a tale we’ve spun, In emotions’ labyrinth, it’s often shunned. Defective notions of love’s grand feat, A generation’s yearning, an elusive treat.   Peace, end, or fairytale’s embrace, Awoke by a fallacy, a love’s chase. Sarcasm devours, simplicity’s quest, Coffee, hikes, love’s ultimate test.   Rhyming reason, an explanation plea, From those we thought we’d never see. Love…

The Unbreakable Bond, A Mother's Journey through Loss and Hope
Psalm 146:4 On mothers Day of 2021 I posted a piece on this blog. In it, I wonder what mothers who have lost their children in death feel on May 9th of every year. Today I revisit that write-up and attempt to be less abstract. I try to discuss my “Mother with no child” in this particular article. In a world where joy and sorrow intermingle, the heart-wrenching experience of parents losing their…

I respect people’s comfort zone. So I was going to write again in July about how to go about a civil marriage in Uganda and…

Sudan failed Coup spun into a Civil War
For a while now, I have wanted to have my say on the Sudan crisis of 2023. Where I come from we have ways of referring to Sudan, and with a lot of disdain, we sometimes call it the other Sudan. When Sudan was Africa’s largest country, it developed a bad reputation amongst its neighbors. In Uganda, it backed the LRA and the ADF as it caused mayhem in the oil region, it had a border issue with…
