Re: [WestNileNet] Re: Decision!!!
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 On 1 June 2010 12:27, aji...@mtn.co.ug wrote: This is a long-gone and closed issue Richard!!

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.

Re: [WestNileNet] Re: Decision!!!
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.
