Even when he wanted to visit his brother, who had been arrested, he was told to pay for ‘tea’ before he could do it. While listening to the radio, he heard an announcement about paying taxes to build the nation. He wanted to know if he should pay taxes if some people are corrupt.   WHAT DOES THE LAW SAY? By law, every person who is above 18 years old may have to pay tax in one way or another. This is because there are different types of taxes. For example, there is a tax known as income tax which must be paid by all types of people who make money from within the country.   Other taxes include P.A.Y.E., which is a tax on your salary from employment(your job).

This homosexuality bill has been brought and passed at a well calculated time when the whole country is having breaking news on; 1. Arrogance and professional misconducts by government officials. 2. Corruption scandals with the recent been Karamoja Iron Sheet scandal, Karamoja goat scandal where Ministry officials allegedly spent 500,000 Shs to buy each  goat to be delivered for the vulnerable people  Karamoja Sub-region. 3.

NB; These are my views and  opi...
