UTODA DISMANTLED MODERN TRANSPORT SYSTEMS? If you want to understand the mentality of Uganda leaders, drive on Uganda roads, visit any Uganda town, Kampala streets or visit Uganda town bus and taxi terminals. Certainly, many of these locations, are quite different from politicians homes who always prefer high-sounding names i.e. Muyenga, Buziga, Ntinda, even if the place might lack proper sewerage facilities or a proper road to one powerful man in a banana republic. In nature, common sense and rationalism are combined to come to social and system organisation among higher primates i.e. human beings. That is not among Ugandan political class! The implications are deeper, for an African Politician, driving in a traffic jam or passing by a filthy town or village, cant see anything and in that respect if is a powerful politician, has nothing to do to rectify the situation. There is more to this fact, IMPROVISING by these types. A politician will on that basis get ten policemen to follow him through a traffic jam. Or will make sure he becomes a minister to acquire a four will drive, to beat the pot holed road to his village or squeeze himself through the commons. I am amazed by this behavioural structure! The above is a scientific study! It has been raining, and you can imagine; mangoes, passion fruits, bread or taxi drivers parking in the middle of huge excrement flow, sending a terrible stinking foul smell and that is okay for UTODA and this government. You might blame KCC however, government policy is such that KCC will not have a mechanical engineering section but rather procure services as the case might be in Global Fund or any other NRM government social services sector. Uganda, has no known motor and vehicle industrial establishment to either meet her transportation needs or replace the existing, despite an over 20-year advent of Japanese made mini-buses. Mini buses are a precursor to a modern Uganda transportation system. Its a millennium disaster resulting into dismantling of (colonialism) Uganda Railways (UR) and Uganda Transport Corporations (UTC) by NRM. Welcome come to Uganda government transport policy. Individuals alleged to be Uganda Taxi Operators Association (UTODA) utilised the gap to capture the trend above. Subsequently, launching the most primitive transport system ever, in Ugandas modern history. UTODA today, is a limited company of, which usefulness as an association for taxi drivers is more political and profit maximisation than meeting the countrys socio-economic and health needs. Ask any taxi driver if they know who and what UTODA is, few even know the proprietary of that entity and what it stands for! UTODA is a dreaded entity by all taxi drivers and discussing or mention of UTODA appears to send shivers among them. Yet, taxi drivers operate in the filthiest, congested and most toxic environment ever known in Uganda. Taxi and bus drivers are the most psychologically and sociologically affected labour force in Uganda. Politicians predominantly own taxis and buses. Drivers and conductors, wake up at 05.00 a.m. and get off their jobs at 11.00 p.m., implying they work more than 15 hours a day. It is a negative trend for family men and a sole reason why taxi drives, are the source of the gravest Uganda modern social ills; like drug use, excessive alcohol intake and violent behaviour. Taxi drivers have a higher incidence of violence among them, than any other working group in Uganda. In a sentence taxi drivers have lost all human dignity forced or indirectly brought on them. The recent presidential and parliamentary election not a single driver dared mention any other party other than National Resistance Movement - you can imagine the primitivism despite the oppressive conditions these people work in! As bodaboda, taxi drivers are expected to shout political slogans even though they get nothing from the state. Scientific driving regulations, a person driving a public service vehicle will be working only 4 5 consecutive hours and resting for 1 2 hours before resuming work afresh. That is in civilised societies that care about the health of their own people. Uganda taxi drivers have to take to his boss between 50,000 to 70,000 shs daily and on top of that pay taxi fees raging from between 4500 per route and monthly fee of 20,000 in addition to taking care of fuel and mechanical needs. Funny enough when motor vehicles particularly matatu and buses slaughter people, Uganda police interpret it as over speeding overlooking the very origins of the problem forcing taxi and bus drivers, overworking into such terrible omnivorous conditions as illustrated above. Given that Kampala is a wetland, basic hydrological engineering study shows the city would be utilising water transport on Lubigi and Nalukolongo, Mayanja, even on garbage filled Nakivubo channel as alternative transport system.

Buganda Women, Children misery & Robbery Theology: Professors Nsibambi, Bukenya, Kiwanuka, Makubuya abaganda are tired. Your government is silently eradicating Buganda through poverty. Remember Bataka Bu?! Our efforts therefore, will not stop to bring your government to book for premeditated torturing and murdering of OBuganda. Buganda does not need your Mputa I- II oil Buganda is more than 1000 years old! Evidence on genocide Those sending me all high-quality data on Luwero genocide, I thank you so much, continue doing so. Go on and further get that from the Kingdom of Acoli too. The International Criminal Court is in waiting and justice will be done. Our archivers please record that Peter Mayiga Monitor article, untold story in Luwero for further study and investigation. A one Mukasa who sent me data on killings that went in West Nile in 1985 please send it were I told you for your own safety. Likewise, look at the internet among the Buganda home pages, organisations, discussion list and send all that data to such sites mean time will get the resources to start a auto programmed data based WEBSITE and a LUGANDA MAGAZINE to document all Baganda murdered as the result of the Luwero war in Mityana, Mubende, Kiboga etc, before we proceed to the ICC at the Hague. Contribution of pictures of the dead is also very vital and crucial to tracing their origins. Baganda arent fools neither are Baganda ignorant as presumed. State religion and Buganda In social medicine, (I am a practising sociologist) COUNSELLING PROFESSION MUST BE LEGITIMISED after years of thorough education. The department of social work and religious studies at Makerere or the school of psychiatry at Mulago know about it! Those practicing counselling without proper education and practicing licences are doing it illegally. Such vice has generated children sacrifice, women rape, and out right stealing by the practioneers. Its misuse leads to disqualification, annulment of practicing licence and might lead to long-term imprisonment. Where did these pastors and prophets get the professional qualification to practice such trade?! Established churches and mosques have a very streamlined mode of operations, not every one can become a sheikh or priest. Moreover seminaries in Uganda are affiliated to Makerere Universities for that sole reason. Dr. Kigozi of Butabika has written countless articles on such issues. Do you realises increasing psychiatric problems among the Baganda? The medical fraternity must come in and save Buganda. These pastors and prophets promise an un-knowledgeable community of instant wealth without work and remedies even to natural ailments. The same type of micro finance ideology peddled by the government, where ignorant peasants borrow and instantly become rich! This is teaching robbery! The stories are abundant of people having lost property and land. There is an Asian millionaire, who has specialised in this type of trade. You want to pay back on an agreed date he disappears only to come to you the following day to take away your premises for failure of payment! Investors! We are going to fight back. Buganda cultural heritage is being ruthlessly attacked through; a. Papyrus churches (twisted Marxists type of robbery theology) by self-seekers. b. Intensifying Poverty of knowledge and want in Buganda (killing co-operatives & agriculture production) c. Land grabbing from Buganda d. Killing off rich Buganda peasant and traders - they dont get incentives e. Micro finance borrowing leading to c f. Ecological war i.e. Kalangala, Mubende, Luwero, Mabira leading to b. g. Non promotion and war destruction of small and medium industry in Buganda Etc. Through churches, they tell you last funeral rites is devilish, our herbal medicine scientifically identified by our long lost grandparents is evil spirit worshiping, Buganda naming is backward and selling wine through the papyrus churches is godly. So Buganda did not have a God?!! Selflessness and Buganda glory We arent using your money, however our efforts have been relentless, very successful and strategically incorruptible. Weve scored highly, to diminish the oppression of the peoples of Buganda. Use your money to do likewise. If you are better off enjoying your fuel guzzling car, spend on another semester; get fat cheeks on another hamburger, heavens bless you and dont talk for Buganda for Gods sake. Segregation on Buganda Land How much money has NRM allocated to the Lord Mayor Alhajji Nasser Ssebagala to upgrade Katwe and Kisenyi 6 million Uganda shillings to clean the street when the Chinese prime minister was here! How much money has NRM allocated to the Lord Mayor Alhajji Nasser Ssebagala to unblock sewer and Indian gutter open constructed drainage network? Nil. Were industrialising with faeces in our Bugandas backyard. Today: Bombo, Kampala-Jinja
