Dear Bros/Sisters,

I have never seen anyone in this part of  world dramatically narrating a
night-fight between his/her spouse at dawn, all of us have better options to
explore and improve WNF and we really need to be serious of items posted on
this website.because the whole world including hackers are
reading your messages just type your mail address in
www.google.comhttp://www.google.com/
, here you will know what kind of postings you ever done and you will never
delete these from google's server,my advice to you is access each other's
tel. number just talk personally its the best way to solve misunderstandings
and I know 2 of you are not enemies, such misunderstandings do happen, leave
it and the 2 aggrieved parties shouldn't post/reply again or apologize
again, bse the fire will reignite again


Thanks

Peter ODAMA

 Dear all,

 With all due respect to all members of this forum, I do not know
 Christine personally and I may have misunderstood her too! But I think
 if some one knows her personally they should have a face to face and
 sort out anything personal outside this forum.

 I believe the statement made by Mr. Bugason, was meant in a positive
 manner, the hope that the approach being applied through the forum would
 eventually reach the persons in charge in the Government system of
 Uganda.

 The Government has so many offices pursuing all sorts of objectives and
 must be pursued in an organized manner, including the main mandate of
 developing the people of Uganda. It may however be impossible for
 individuals to solely solve development challenges from with in the
 Government system.

 However organized communities may be able to in clever ways lobby for
 services or remind the Government of Urgent development needs. I there
 wish to advise that Dr. Agedra's statements may have been made in this
 light.

 All we need to improve in this forum is harvesting of the information
 for action planning and implementation. This has started well with the
 Education Committee and other committees - so I think we shall get some
 where eventually.

 I interact very closely with some of the people in leadership of WNF and
 they are working, may be slow but they will soon return with a useful
 way forward.

 Lets avoid furthering unwarranted discussions I plead with all otherwise
 this baby will DIE!

  Mr. President,

 Development is a process that requires inputs from diverse stakeholders. We
 need strategic alliances and partnerships to tackle the complex set factors
 that impede development in our region. We warmly welcome this senior and
 influential person to join the forum and share with us his ideas, plans and
 ability to attract or provide funding. However, I would be apprehensive if
 he wants to remain anonymous and gets a budget from us. What does he want to
 do with our budget? We fear image laundering i.e. using WNF to get money for
 self and other personal opportunities. There is nothing to hide from this
 forum. We are apolitical. Please encourage him to join us.

 Thank you,

 Ben

Dear all,
I thought this matter had been rested. I am surprised it is still going on, may 
be we have nothing else to dicsuss. I have explained all my reasons, I have 
said I will not apologize or deregister myself and let people to judge and take 
decision! This might just be a trick to keep provoking me so that I am 
dergistered but I wont succum.  Discussing something else would be useful. I 
know Ajedra wanted me to read Buga's email below, but to me this was a mere 
gossip, those who gossip and dont let it to your face fear what they are 
saying. I always ignore my gossipers, including Buga untill he faces me. He 
didnt sent the email to me, he went round his friends/cliques to get it to me, 
so why waste people's time on it. Surely, if you want to express your feelings 
to me, why sent it to other people. I sent my email to the net not to a few 
individuals.
 He immedaitely degerstered himself, then asked people to send it to me if they 
feel like, how amusing! it is of no use to keep bringing it here, otherwise we 
would be gossiping him which is not in my interest.You can have a hundred lists 
of people in his support but that doesnt change the fact. Majority is always 
not right and I dont go by majority when I know that majority is not right. The 
email has rightly brought out who he is and he made the right decision to 
deregister. If I was the wrong person then his reply should have reflected the 
right person he is. Leaders MUST be tolerant to alternative views. If I had 
attacked, then efforts would have been made to correct the attack but everybody 
also attacked instead so who is to blame and for what? So let bussiness come 
back to normal and we continue. Please we need a different topic.

Dear Westnilers,

Allow me comment on the ping-pong communications between members on the above 
captioned.  I had earlier on advised that this forum should be used by 
individuals to further their political anger or views or ambitions.  The 
comments of the pass weeks on westnilenet has affirmed my caution.

In my so many years in government (not in Uganda) I have come to realize that 
constructive criticism and partnership with government (as opposed to 
destructive criticism) works when it comes to achieving development for a 
region such as ours.  That is why policy decisions (such as relating to 
development of an area are formulated and agreed in Cabinet - who are mostly 
selected from members / government in power) while the Parliament merely 
formulates the necessary laws to effect the policy decisions of the Executive.  

Has any of us wondered why after 47 years of independence our region is not 
connected to the national grid while Uganda supplies power to Kenya, Tanzania 
etc?  This is inclusive of the 8 years we were in government!  I am sure it 
should not come as a surprise to us all that to connect west nile to the 
national grid is much cheaper than the cost of Karuma - Arua tarmac road. 

Has anybody wondered why it took almost 45 years to have Karum - Arua road 
paved with bitumen (inclusive of the 8 years we were in government)?  Has 
anybody wondered why we feel marginalised when it comes to the development of 
the west nile region.  Do we have body / forum that brings our political 
leaders (MPs, LC5 etc) together such as those of Acholi and Karomong 
sub-regions where issues affecting our people are discussed and positions 
taken?  Who is the chairman of such a body if it exists?  Why is that not the 
case when other regions have?  

There is no unity amongst our elected leaders which by extension includes us 
all.  Each elected person feels he/she knows it all and would like to be the 
custodian of the solutions to the problems facing our people.  May be we should 
start thinking outside the box for the solutions to our problems in the 
region.  The ping-pong communications on the net does not and will not yield 
any meaningful result.  

Mr. Bugason was right to suggest that he hopes what we say or write on 
westlinenet will reach the authorities (Mr. Bugason I hope I have not misquoted 
you!).  The sooner we start thinking outside the box the better of us all from 
West Nile region.

Thank you.

Eng. Dr. Ajedra Aridru.
