BY A PATRIOTIC UGANDAN FROM "WE SPEAK FOR THE NATION" GROUP ON WHATSAPP. .................................................................................... I managed to read both posts one of Yoweri Kaguta Museveni and the other one of Hon. Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine and here were my observations, conclusions and recommendations. . 1. Museveni's post was not addressed to Bobi Wine, Bobi Wine was among the many people mentioned in the post but he tried to capitalize on the fact that he was mentioned in the post and then responded to the post. 2. The two are great writers and Bobi's post had a lot of shared style of writing from Museveni's post. (Consider the vernacular words of some English words in both posts) 3.Both Museveni and Bobi Wine claim that 78% of Uganda's population is comprised of the Youths which is wrong. Bracketing the Youths to be between the age of 15-35 or even 45, its totally wrong. According to the 2014 Housing and Population Census, 47% of Ugandans were below 15 years of age Leaving the youths, the adults and aged to share the remaining 53%. So the 78% which should mean the young age 0-40 is wrongfully used to represent the youths (15-35). This 78% should therefore not be used in demographics concerning unemployment but rather dependence ratio since a more than a half of this 78% are the minor (below 18) who are not yet of working age. OUR Leaders need to get informed. 4. Museveni claims that the reason why we have a big percentage of young age as opposed to adult age is because of NRM Policies like immunization introduced in 1987 which reduced the infant mortality rate from 156 to 43 in 1000 live births. Thank You Mr. President but still 43 is still a big a number. This means that out of 1000 babies born alive, 43 of them won't survive the infantry stage not forgetting that most of the diseases killing the toddlers are curable diseases Mr. President. Out of 1 576 000 babies born every year in Uganda 67760 kids die before the age of one. However in my own view, this gap between the young and the aged is mainly because of high mortality rate in Uganda evidenced by a low life expectancy which currently stands at 58 years, 5 years below the one of our neighboring Rwanda and 3 years below the one of Kenya implying that most Ugandans die just slightly above the Youthful age. 5. Museveni says that Ugandans no longer follow politics of religion which he attributes that to NRM and Bobi Wine refuses to acknowledge that. I also attribute this achievement to NRM. During Obote's reign, Anglicans (Protestants) enjoyed the governance over and on the cost of Catholics making Catholics support DP looking for a change. I guess every Ugandan knows this. During Amin's reign, two thirds to three quarters of the cabinet (66%-75%) were Muslims yet the Muslim population in Uganda was slightly below 10% of the total population. In 1985 when Catholic generals (Bazilio Olara-Okello and Tito Okello Lutwa) overthrew the Obote government in my own county Kashari, Catholics attacked Anglicans (call them protestants) and the latter had to seek refuge at the Rutooma Archdeaconary. When M7 took power in 1986, such religious opportunists were there and wanted to take advantage but it did not happen, Museveni united religions towards working for a united Uganda. But His claim that Ugandans are no longer in politics of tribes its completely not true. Even in Last Year's general elections, he should have observed that he won in certain tribes and lost in other tribes an indication that people were grouped ethnically into supporting either Besigye or him (Museveni) so there is still much to be done to make tribes blend socially. 6. Museveni talking about New Vision was like he was reminding the government owned media company that their job is to promote NRM not opposition. His voice did not echo for a balanced/fairness/objectivity in the way this state owned newspaper publishes but rather calling them to keep leaning towards the NRM. Hope Kabushenga Robert read the post of his boss commanding. . 7. After swearing in as an MP Kyadondo East, Bobi Wine promised to make his wife a First Lady of Uganda. In this post of Bobi Wine if you read it well. It sounded like he was taking the first step towards his promise to Barbie. The statement was the kind of approach which probably some people thought lacked in Besigye. "hardliners whose stance is that everything about Uganda is wrong" with the fact that Bobi Wine seemed to give credit where due to the incumbent and also agreed to him in one way or the other to him which made some people respond to his statement with words like "I love the maturity In the way u articulate on things an for the 1st time, we have a person who doesn't believe in wat the president does but doesn't point fingers, doesn't abuse and comes to agreement with him at some points!! I hope the president seeing what I see in you and works with you!! You can make a good prime minister!" . I like the statement of Bobi Wine where he said that "Part of the problem has been that the NRM views money as the solution to everything in itself.Only God knows how many funds u've put in innovation, prosperity ect, only to fail flat." and linked it to Museveni's statement in a line where he said "The gaps that have emerged are: jobs for the large youth population, fighting corruption of public servants and politicians" Museveni is becoming clear to Ugandans than ever that he has completely failed to fight corruption. . This is just the beginning our eyes are open on how the MPs will fight hard in this trying time of the Removing the Age Limit.
