Matek,
Thats the systems theory. Every body\ home is protecting his\her home (
family) interest first.. then next closest family \ village ......next.
These are the sub system. The whole system is Uganda. Thats how it has been
and ever shall be in the whole world.

Simon!
If the Buganda must protect their interest first and foremost, the Banyoro
should equally protect their interest, the Iteso must protect their
interest, the Jopadolha must protect their interest, the Bagishu must
protect their interest, the Lugwara must protect their interest, the Alur,
must protect their interest, The sebei must protect their interest, the
Banyakole must protect their interest, e.t.c ..who then, I ask, will
protect the INTEREST OF THE REPUBLIC OF UGANDA?????? YOU MIGHT AS WELL NOT
HAVE A COUNTRY to which you belong called UGANDA!! Think my friend

I am surprised that in 2005 you are still wondering WHY the Baganda feel
that they should protect their OWN interest. ( as if anyone else takes care
of them)
Buganda is a nation, and whatever stupidity anyone will dictate, will not
take that away. Shame that you are still bothered by that fact.
