{UAH} STATEMENT: TOTAL MUDEEYO EWAMWE!
As we remember the struggles that brought about Uganda's Independence Day (photo attached), I have one question for the people of Uganda. How can this country soon become Africa's Dubai when in the oil agreements, Uganda gets a mere trickle from all the sales of its own oil, and only after Total executives & Total shareholders have finished feasting on the lions share overseas (they are reportedly pocketing upto %70 of all Ugandan oil sales cash).
Also, how can any African accept to sign such unfavorable agreements against their own country and against their own people? This is incredible.
I have no angry sentiments against anyone. Not even against France. On the contrary they are one of the few western country's I personally love. It is where I got my education, was well received by their people, I speak there language, have very fond memories of the country, and many french friends to this day. For the record, the French Embassy in Kampala also gave me a free scholarship several years later for media studies, and even invited me to the opening ceremony of the new French Embassy building on Lumumba Avenue some years ago.
But we have to face reality here. What is happening on Uganda's oil revenues is against my country and all its people. Not just about me.
Total is a French government corporation, and France is a long-standing development partner in Africa. So can the French President Emmanuel Macron kindly reconcile this disturbing contradiction, and explain publicly to the sympathetic people of France, and the empoverished people of Uganda, exactly how such a heartless agreement, deceptively being made palatable by frantically advertising to Ugandans the so-called "opportunities in the oil sector", when in reality the bigger picture is actually thorough in plunder against Uganda, how can it rapidly uplift the entire population of this country from poverty using their own resource like in the once desert Arab countries, when %70 of all the money quietly goes to France, and Ugandans are expected to say nothing? Or are such deals in fact a painful, secretive and morally criminal french knee on Africa's neck, obfuscating Uganda's God sent opportunity to get out of poverty using its own finite resource, depriving the people of the continent of their rightful fair share of a prosperous future, and thereby premeditatedly keeping Africans in squalor abit longer?
Apaana!
