Re: [WestNileNet] Education Ordinance
Hi Caleb, You are definately going to stir controversy here for your good comments. But did you know that everytime we ate too much, we slept most of the afternoon without stduying? Now should the belly be full or half full? Anyway this ordinance thing is good if enforcement is good. So it is just as good as the enforcement. I hope as we go around making proposals, lets keep that in mind. Robert Ejiku.

Assuming the Ordinance is enacted into law and parents who all slept hungry with their hungry kids are forced by law to force these hungry kids to study. Our generation excelled in national exams not because of an Ordinance but because of several reasons including a full belly.

Re: [WestNileNet] Education Ordinance
Hi Rofino, Thank you for giving us the website to access information on the work on Yumbe District P.L.E. However, while i was able to access the website, the link to the document could not easily open. Am not sure if the link is functioning well. I would be glad to hear other people's attempts. Thanks.

Re: [WestNileNet] Education Ordinance
Father Ruffino, Thank you for your quick response to our comments on the Edu. ordinance. I am wondering whether other westnilenet members would also have some comments to make in which case, you could present all of them together may be later in the week. I do appreciate that the ordinance is a wonderful first start. Council needs to consult the population before this becomes policy indeed. As I said in my first response - council is doing exactly what the international donors/countries did / continue to do when they come to Africa - come with a template that was applied in the west and want to impose it in africa. A councillor can not say they have done their part -- it is up to the people to do theirs -- this smacks of arrogance and paternalism; we know best what is for the masses. Their role is to make sure all policies are not only understood by the people who are going to be impacted, but that they are implemented correctly. Each district councilor should take the ordinance and educate their respective voters; get their feedback and make the necessary amendments. We as a stakeholder do have our own suggestions to make and I beleive if we work together we can have a better product that will lead to positive changes in our region.

Re: [WestNileNet] Education Ordinance
Dear Charles Greetings. I have just arrived in Ombaci after some talk to the students of ST Charles Lwanga College Koboko. Yesterday and today were days dedicated to career talks. I was able to scan the enviornment and I found out that there is a lot of eagerness on the side of these students. Thanks for remarks on the education ordinance. I would love to meet Mr Kamilo Sabo (who is LC V arua and secretary for education in arua district) and be in position to share with him such remarks. In one of our TF meetings a member remarked that this ordinance was a table work without consultation from community members. When a district councillor was asked he was able to say for us we have done our part and if the community does not put it into practice it is their problem. We need something the community can own as their own. This may be ungrounded but lets see what is for the good of our region. -- Ruffino Ezama,mccj Comboni Missionaries Ombaci Mission P.O Box 30 Arua Uganda (+256 77 2 62 42 40) (+256 70 2 62 42 40) ruffino.ez...@gmail.com ezama.ruff...@gmail.com ruff...@cmpmail.com www.tualu.org ___ WestNileNet mailing list WestNileNet@kym.net http://orion.kym.net/mailman/listinfo/westnilenet % WestNileNet is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/ The above comments and data are owned by whoever posted them (including attachments if any).
