Indentying ourselves
The general consesus has been that we need to identify ourselves by creating a
name.
The suggestions/ideas/recommendations we make regarding issues in West Nile
Region will be more effective if we have some level of authority to voice and
present these issues to the different levels of govenment authorities.
These names have been proposed.
1) West Nile Global Forum for Sustainable Development (WNGFSD)
2) West Nile Strategic Development Commission (WNSDC)
3) Work with existing organization like West Nile Rural Development Agency
(WENIRUDA). This is registered already (www.WENIRUDA.org)
Note: Commissions are typically created by govenment to look into an
issue/address a problem.
May I ask all members to vote on these three (3) proposed names within the
next two weeks (2). If we all agree on a particular name, one of the
attorneys/lawyer on the team can help to shape and draw up articles of
incorporating the name as not for profit organization in Uganda.

Thanks Denis for relighting the fire on this one. I would like to
suggest/recommend we begin catching up on this issue starting from next week on
Thursday.
We have one week left for more ideas on the High Umployment & Povery.
A few members have been contributing vividly lately. May I encourage more
people getting involved. DO NOT BE BOGGED DOWN. LET'S HEAR MORE
Voices/Opninions.
Next week I would like us to do on line VOTE on who we want to call ourselves.
Three names have so far been proposed. Any objections or secondments?

Ladies and gentlemen,
As people of West Nile, we are faced with the choice of unity and cooperation
on one hand or disunity and a common tragedy on the other. But the news, as I
said earlier is that, we can all do our part to confront our challenges to
development. Bearing that in mind, I wish to propose a tournament that could
be held under the theme “UNITY FOR DEVELOPMENT” whose goal must be to bring
together the people of Maracha and Terego, promote peace, enhance constructive
engagements & partnership, and generate increased cooperation for unity,
growth, and development.
Today we all recognize and appreciate the potential of sports to unify people
separated by various conflict-brewing factors; politics, religion, ethnicity,
social and economic disparities. The the district issue, party politics, and
poverty have left deep bruises and divisions amongst our people. Presently,
politicians in the two areas even consider their colleagues as enemies, thus
leaving very little hope of building a common front as people of West Nile to
pursue recovery and antipoverty agenda. I therefore think, if we adopted soccer
which is the most popular in our area, we could create healthy-worrying people
who see themselves as partners with a common focus and vision rather than
enemies, and collectively develop a new vision for growth and development in
West Nile.
I was told when Marcha and Terego people disagreed sometime in back, Miria
Adua, the then chief of Maracha organized the popular 1962 football match at
Ovujo where Teregians were served their favorite ‘rats’ as Maracha people
struggled with grasshoppers. Even when BAT-West Nile Tobacco Union fight left
people sharply divided along factional lines and planted seed of hatred amongst
the people; soccer always emerged as the unifying force that brought together
people divided by the various reasons. Under an unusual joy, they willingly
cheered and supported their teams as others watched with great amazement
enemies standing together, chanting, celebrating and even hugging one another
on play ground .
Drawing inspiration from this, I’m proposing we use soccer to strengthen the
link between Maracha and Terego people and their partisans; to promote a sense
of togetherness; encourage purposeful and positive engagements; contribute to
development of West Nile; and inspire reformed political participation, free
and open exchange of ideas, and greater interaction.
I’m also proposing that each match be complemented by brief discussions to
emphasize the key objectives and concepts portrayed by the tournament. All
participating teams receive set of jerseys and footballs. Players of all
participating teams receive certificates, winning team receives a trophy and a
bull, and 2nd winner receives a bull.
To stimulate increased participation in the tournament, awareness banners,
t-shirts and promos be developed and availed within the two counties and promos
aired on two radio stations for some days.
I hope more ideas will be generated and needed resources will be mobilized. I’m
pledging two footballs towards this cause.
