{UAH} POOR LEADERSHIP AND UNITARISM ARE NOT THE PROBLEM OF UGANDA 2

Friends

 

As I continue to depict the un civilization of Ugandans, I need to add this article to the piece I so posted early in the night about Uganda and what it needs to change.  Yes it is true this man stole money, built an expensive house which Ugandans themselves are now destroying claiming he buried the rest of the money there. This is an asset the government can take over to try and recover part of the money, after all the man is already in jail.

This is exactly the same application the Acholis applied in 1979 destroying Nubian buildings particularly in Bombo. They went after Nasuru Abdullah’s house as if the house also participated in committing atrocities against the Acholis. Primitive as the Nubians were, as the rest of Ugandans claim, they knew the concept of business and development. They modernized Bombo all the way to Matuga. They are not people who depend on handouts. They start off with their sambusa, mandazi and kabalagala, save enough and move on to something bigger. Very community oriented, corporate, work together and anyone younger is "nyereku" (mwana waffe), our child, the Tanzania version of "ndugu".  After Iddi Amin's fall, they gave up on politics and resorted to their normal life small, medium and big business. Unlike Acholis, after losing power three times (Obote I, Obote II and Okello and Okello), they resorted to creating Konny and Lakwena trying to take Uganda back to stone age era, and the price has been...your guess is as good as mine!!

Had the Acholi not been that greedy, envious of anything that do not own, post Amin regime would have worked because uneducated Amin was, he followed through with all the projects Obote left unfinished and added new ones too. Do I admire Amin, no I don't but he knew what a nation needed to progress and finally, as we have been finding out, not all the killings were carried out by him, Museveni and his Acholi comrades participated in the killings too to discredit and undermine the regime! When you stand in Uganda today to destroy this house due to your expectations, remember what  The Acholis decided to do after Iddi Amin, and how it has paid them off. Trust me the price Acholis are paying today and will continue to pay due to such poor reasoning is going to be costly to their children and grand grandchildren. Poor leadership and uniterism are not the problem of Uganda, our people are simply too uncivilized to even fit into a unitary system.

In Summary

Futile attempt? Three days of intensive drilling and breaking had yielded nothing of prosecution value by Friday evening.

Kampala.

Detectives from the police Criminal Investigations and Intelligence Directorate (CIID) are drilling through the floors and walls of the house of corruption convict Godfrey Kazinda in search of stolen government money suspected to have been hidden in a bunker inside his house in Bukoto, a Kampala suburb.
Kazinda, the former Principal Accountant in the Prime Minister’s Office, was convicted of forging the Permanent Secretary’s signature, apparently to embezzle government money.
He is on trial on other charges of corruption, which is part of a wider racket in which the government was fleeced of at least Shs150 billion.

Determined
By Friday evening, police had dismantled the whole floor of the sitting room and bedroom and the demolition was still going on.
The joint operation led by the CIID director, Ms Grace Akullo, together with Deputy Director Geoffrey Musana, acting deputy director Criminal Intelligence Charles Asaba and deputy commandant of the Fire Brigade Hassan Kihanda began on Thursday.
Ms Akullo told the Sunday Monitor that the operation would continue to its logical conclusion.

“We are searching Kazinda’s home based on intelligence information that he kept money here. We will also search for any other evidence that may aid his prosecution,” Ms Akullo said.
A former guard at Kazinda’s residence, Mr Edward Okure, was recently remanded to Luzira Prison on robbery charges. He is accused of stealing unknown sums of money at Kazinda’s house.

Secret revealed
It is said during interrogation, Okure told police that Kazinda had stashed bags of money in a bunker inside his house. This prompted the police to open up the building.
Sources privy to the ongoing operation told the Sunday Monitor that a team from the fire and rescue squad was using electronic drills and chain saws to break the floor and walls of the mansion.
The search may take more days because the building is huge.
According to sources, the building was initially constructed to serve as a hotel but police arrested Kazinda before the business plan could come to fruition.
On Thursday, police took a break at 9:30pm after seven hours of a fruitless search and later resumed.
