Ms Annette,
Why scapegrace President Museveni? Who pass the budgets (for both the government and Statehouse)?
Can you quote the list of those MPs who have declined their share?
Perhaps you can quote even some propositions and how they were battled in the Parliament?
Hmm, we still choose our MPs from the dreadful Ugandan culture!
The very one praising you is the very one who mercilessly sucks you dry!!
Noc'la gaumoy
"WE FORM THE CULTURE THAT FORMS US"….noc'la gaumoy.

I think the concept of drastically dealing with corruption is impossible son. In less than a month Museveni was in kololo adressing the world and.one of his promises was a.fight on corruption. Then what happened the following week his seen dishing out 5m to NRM MPs as a gift... then to vote Olanya...then to help MPs solve problems in thwir society. .an act of corruption exercised now openely..by a head of state. Honeslty!!!!
How do u trust such an old man hobestly. he says this and does the opposite.
On the questio of age limit i dought if it will be an issue because his already passed the age as provided for by the constitution. the man eyes.. and chicks can reveal his 80 years but still ruling. I notice these days even when his walking he uses alot of energy to prove that his still able... if u want have alook at his body language... u will see for yourself. The man is old... atleast he has realised at last that his son can take over.
Poor Muhoozi... he has no choice but do as father says. I feel sorry for Muhoozi being a son of a dectator u cant choose otherwise ...
Also i feel sorry for Muhoozi because taking over a country that the father has put in the bin. Use of guns... chemicals to posion ugandans is not a solution to problems facing ugandans.

If i was Muhoozi i would do the best to disasociate from Mzeeiiii political games. He has hurt so many ugandans son dont fallow suit.
