Written by none other than Edward Mulindwa! hahahahahah, this guy is so funny! He has never taked about Busoga, Bunyoro, Tooro, Acholi, Lango, Teso, Kalamoja, Bugisu/Sebei, Kigezi, BuT only Ankole and Buganda!
If Buganda according to Mulindwa is not ready for federal, why is it asking for it??
Why are the regions of Western, Northern, Eastern Uganda, with all their resources not forth coming on Federalism?? Mulindwa, considers them able to survive in a federal Uganda.
For example Mulindwa accounts of Western Uganda to have a lot of educated fellows, why is the West (Ankole in particular) not holding the flag for federalism?? Is the West (Ankole) silent on federalism because they think Buganda can not survive under federalism?? This is how uncritical Mulindwa's article is.
But ofcourse I've got to give it up to Mulindwa for trying his best to open the eyes of Buganda on several issues. Issues like; agriculture and illiteracy. The problem however is that under Unitarism, the ministry of agriculture has no access to the National Treasury in order to boost Buganda's agriculture. The ministry of education under Unitarism, does not have this access either.
Those are reasons enough for Buganda to ask for Federalism. Atleast, under federalism more than 30% of taxes collected in Buganda will stay with the Buganda federal govt. This govt will in turn give access of money to the Buganda ministry of agriculture to boost agriculture in the kingdom. The same will happen to the Buganda ministory of education to boost education in the kingdom. As long as Buganda can get more than 30% access of taxes collected in her region, agriculture and education will be improved.
Unitarism is killing agriculture and education in other parts of Uganda. Take Buganda and Ankole out of this. Education and agriculture in Busoga is on a decline. The industrial revolution in Busoga that was is no more. Why?? Because under Unitarism, the ministry of agriculture and education have no access to funds to cater for these things in Uganda. Under unitarism, it is only the ministry of defence that has access to the money in the National Treasury.
Mulindwa, needs to ask himself why is Buganda's education and agriculture declining?? What kind of governance system has Buganda been under when these declines are taking place?? It is Unitarism. That is why Mulindwa is not making sense when he is arging for Uganda to stay in the same Unitary system that has killed Buganda's agricultural development and education systems.
We need to have federalism for the whole nation of Uganda. We need to start and combat these problems facing our country. We need to have State Regional Govts with agriculture and education ministries with access to funds. We need to see the Buganda govt be able to take care of these problem by getting more than 40% of taxes collected in Buganda. The same should happen to other regions of Uganda. We need to start.
Mulindwa is not making sense. He has no point.
