Fellow WestNilers:
1.  Is there a way in which the artwork for the Uganda Flag can be traced back 
to Mzee Simei Nyai.

2.  If the above is possible can we legally (and by other means available) 
advocate for what is due to him or

3.  Can we ensure that he gets the due recognition for having made this noble 
contribution?

WestNilers (particularly Caleb and the legal fraternity), your humble 
suggestions for practical steps to be taken on the above matter will be highly 
appreciated.

FYI, Mzee Simei Nyai lives (if I can vaguely remember) in Edroze, near Okuambo 
Cuu in the eastern part of Greater Mvara.

Best regards to all,

Even mail to yahoo sent via MTN is bouncing

I have to believe the problem is at Yahoo
Because the chances that 3 different service providers are all bouncing yahoo

Now we just have to wait the problem out

I apologize to all the yahoo account holders but I have no other solution

2010-10-05 Thread Jimmy Adriko 
Aggrey,

I am glad you have raised this. I have followed this issue of Simei Nyai
with keen interest. I undertook to have his side of story heard by arranging
interview with him that run in The New Vision about three or four years ago
around such a period of independence day celebrations. It was full page
interview with his picture. At that time he showed The New Vision letters
from RDC of Arua and some correspondednces with presidents office
coordinated by Joram Ajeani who was then MP before he went as Ambassador to
Zaire (now DRC).
To my surprise no politician from West Nile picked to address the issue on
the floor of Parliament. Unlike Kakoma who composed the national anthem and
took on the legal path, and go compensated after several years of legal
battle. Simei has no resources to get through the legal process. As I write
now though retired he is a voulunteer teacher in a primary school (I dont
recal the name) between Oluko and Binze in Oluko division, Arua district.
Those who are willing to assist him to follow up can contact ine of his
daughters Perry Ndezo Okuonzi who lives in Kampala on 0772440418.

2010-10-05 Thread alaka caleb 
Aggrey,

Thanks for this information. I remember of recent, the Professor who
wrote the National Anthem dragged Government to Court and he was
compensated. Suits always have limitation periods. but for continuous
issues like use of royalty, Limitation periods do not apply. I will
try to discuss with Matenga, Ojaku, Akile, Ondoma and Okecha and we
shall see the way forward. The Old man needs to prove that it is him
who designed the flag

[WestNileNet] Mzee Simei Nyai's claim of royalty for the Uganda National Flag

2010-10-05 Thread aggrey adrale 
Dear WestNilers (and particularly Mr. Alaka and the WestNile Legal Experts),
 
I would like to first of all appreciate the debates that have been raging on, 
on this network much as some of the correspondences degenerated into personal 
attacks, which for now is an issue already sorted. My humble prayer is that 
such a scenario shouldn't be identified with us the West Nilers if we all 
behaved responsibly.
 
A few days ago I was listening to news on Capital Radio and the above subject 
regarding Mzee Simei Nyai's claim for having been the designer of the Uganda 
National Flag featured as a news item that day. However I note that this has 
not been a one-off claim just for this year but an issue that has been running 
"quietly and yet loudly" in his heart for the last 10 years or so (if I'm not 
mistaken).
 
Perhaps the reason why Mzee Nyai's voice has not been heard, let alone being 
recognized by the relevant authorities for this great contribution he 
claims could be the lack of a copyright for his artwork of the Uganda Flag at 
the time he submitted the drawing.
 
Fellow WestNilers:
1.  Is there a way in which the artwork for the Uganda Flag can be traced 
back to Mzee Simei Nyai.
 
2.  If the above is possible can we legally (and by other means available) 
advocate for what is due to him or
 
3.  Can we ensure that he gets the due recognition for having made this noble 
contribution?
 
WestNilers (particularly Caleb and the legal fraternity), your humble 
suggestions for practical steps to be taken on the above matter will be highly 
appreciated.
 
FYI, Mzee Simei Nyai lives (if I can vaguely remember) in Edroze, near Okuambo 
Cuu in the eastern part of Greater Mvara.
 
Best regards to all,
 
 
Aggrey Adrale

Dear Andua,
I know how busy you are so dont worry. We do not need somebody from kampala to make a presentation. They can only be there to introduce the idea but the presenter should be from Arua. Cafe takes place in places where people are gathered for their own leisure purposes, as they enjoy either coffee or beer or sodas. This can be a bar, restuarant or local brew joint,  though we have tried to modify due to public demand to have it in churches in Entebbe. The idea is to make it a simple and free discussionas people, the people should be interested in discussing issues that affect their lives. They choose a topic and we get the right person to make the presentation. The presenter does a 10-15 minutes presentation and people start discussion in terms of questions, contribution etc.
 
Yesterday the next topic suggested was estate administration of the property of the deceased, this was noted to be a major problem in terms of the frequent fights which our legal fraternity is battling with in court all the time. In westnile we know the trend, when a man or woman dies, the children and or the wife are stripped naked of the property of the deceased by the relatives and this has caused so many problems becuase we do not write wills. There was a suggestion to have it broadcasted from here live on radio pacis. This could act as an example of how cafes work for the Arua team. Then a committee will be formed in arua to continue with it like in Kampala.
The committee of kampala is to liaise with Arua and radio pacis in particular to have the next topic broadcasted so that people in the coverage of radio pacis can benefit but unfortunately they will only be able to listen but not participate. If there are other radio stations that would be able to do the same, we would be happy.
Our legal team who were present yesterday agreed to get a facilitator from Administrator generals office for this discussion, so it will be important for many people to benefit from it.
 
what I suggest for now is for you and Asindua to work with the Kampala team to have the next cafe broadcasted live on radio pacis and this will be the starting point.
 
We dont have to have it necessarily broadcasted on radio but this suggestion was to ensure more people benefit, basically we need to identify a popular joint with regular members and consult with them if they are interested, if they agree we can start with them. It normally happens over the weekends  once a month but the group can agree to the best time. If radio pacis agrees to do live broadcasting from the joint, this would be an added advantage. So to start it in Arua, you need to  help us identify such a place in Arua so that we can start it.
 
Please let me know if you need more clarification.
 
Thanks
 
Christine

Dear Christine,
 
Let me apologise for my inability to render a respponse in regard to the pledge I made to contact the managment of Radio Pacis to host the Scince cafes. I did contact the Arua Diocese Health Coordinator, Asindua Philip who is receptive. He has a weekly health programme where the the key presenter is Dr. Onzubo Paul, the Arua Municipal Medical Officer Health.
 
I am not sure how you intend the presentation on the radio is to be done: whether we use a locally based expertise or presenters in Kampala will travel to Arua. Let me know so that I can get back to Asindua. I am trying to secure his registration on the WNnet for ease of the coordination work. 
 
I also suggest establishment of simmilar arrangements with other FM Radios in the region, esp. those in Moyo, Adjumani, koboko and Nebbi.
