Let me take you step by step here so you see the complexes of taxes.

Contribution to Kabaka's Education fund by people like me, now Kigo Prison comes back into the fold as another income generator. Ocii, Kabaka and the Kingdom of Buganda can survive without your contribution or even your entire household a million fold.

When Abu mayanja and Milton Obote were dismmised from Makerere, Abu Mayanja continued his education in England on te sme bursaries and Obote went to work in a sugar plantaion in Kenya yet "you paid" your taxes for such bursaries.  No wonder the onslaught on the king dom and subsquent jailing of Abu Mayanja by Obote.

Re read the article again, but this time pay special attention to:

BUGANDA princes and princesses under the umbrella body, the Prince Kimbuggwe Foundation, have stacked 7, 000 bursaries for children in districts which voted highly for President Yoweri Museveni in February 23 elections.

See article following.

 

This below is corruption! Ugandans are entitled to bursaries whether or not they voted for Mu7. The NRM government can not loot Ugandan tax payers money to dish to those districts that voted for Mu7. Ugandan taxes must go towards elevating the standard of living of all Ugandans regardless of their votes.

 

Chanelling tax payers money to support certain districts because the districts voted for Mu7 is an outright stealing of resources from those districts that did not vote for mu7 to nakedly prop up those districts that voted for mu7. This act does not only create even more poverty in the districts that did not vote for mu7, but also is criminal.

 

If the NRM government want to provide bursaries for districts that  voted for mu7, they should collected taxes in these districts that voted for mu7 for specifically, providing bursaries for t he same districts.

 

There have been a lot of transfer of wealth from one region to another in the country in the last 20 years. Hopefully future investigation will tell, and then Ugandans can make inform decision on the penalty.

7, 000 bursaries for pro-Museveni districts

IGNATIUS SSUUNA

KAMPALA BUGANDA princes and princesses under the umbrella body, the Prince Kimbuggwe Foundation, have stacked 7, 000 bursaries for children in districts which voted highly for President Yoweri Museveni in February 23 elections. Th e head of the group, Prince Edwar d Kimbugwe, told Journalists in Kampala on Monday that the royal clan members were grateful to Ugandans for retaining Museveni in power. Museveni was re-elected President with 4,109,449 votes. FDC's Kizza Besigye got 2,592,954 votes, DP's Ssebaana Kizito got 109,538, independent Abed Bwanika 5,874. The only female candidate, Ms Mira Obote (UPC) got 57,071 votes. "We have to reciprocate our appreciation by offering these bursaries to districts that showed Museveni huge support," Kimbugwe said. Districts in wes tern and central regions voted Museveni overwhelmingly compared to those in eastern and northern Uganda. Kimbugwe said the bursaries would first be given to students in central Uganda before those upcountry benefit. "The bursaries cover all categories from nursery to university," he said. He said the bursaries would be distributed to the beneficiaries throughout the country by th e President's representativ es starting April this year. "We encourage all Resident District Commissioners to come to our office in Kampala to get the details about the bursaries," Kimbugwe said. He said students from Buganda region would be considered although some personalities in the kingdom fight his good work of helping the poor. The Kimbuggwe Foundation members have had a shaky relationship with the Mengo establishment because of the royals's involvement in politics. The head of clans (Ssabalangira), Mr C. Kayima recently warned m embers of the royal clan from participating in politics, a directive the Kimbugwe Foundation defied. He said the foundation would also extend bursaries to students in northern Uganda although voters in the region supported Besigye. "The foundation is pleased to announce that the bursaries are now available and it is up to the people to grab the chance," he said. The foundation is h elping over 10,000 students.
