Karamojong by origin, product of Roman catholic values, philosophical product of URBANIANA UNIVERSITY_ROME, ROMAN BLUE ARMY member and ideologically a militant.
In this fourth investigative story, The Independent magazine brings yet another tale of how Stephen Nuwagaba has manipulated his way to the top of Uganda’s political hierarchy and cause the firing of every government official who crossed his path to power! https://t.co/uCKvG4PMql
Being a Karamojong lady, I can testify I've suffered all types of stereotypes as a student and as an adult job seeker, we've always been rediculed for being who we are.
After university, I applied for at least three jobs per week. After many attempts I got shortlisted for a banker position. We were very many, we did aptitude and I made it to the shortlist. We then did second phase and I made it again. We were asked to report for induction, I reported. On that date the employer asked to confirm where I came from. Unsuspecting and with a smile I said Karamoja. Immediately he told me to go back home and wait for a call. In less than 30 minutes later, I got a call saying that I had been shortlisted in error. Then the tears rolled my face profusely as though I had lost someone. That's how I decided to get back home to look for a job.
A few years later, I started enjoying the privilege of a recruiter but the heart hadn't healed of tribal mistreatment I had suffered. One day in an interview panel I asked a question in Ngikarimojong and I demanded an answer in Ngakarimojong, my bosses were okay with that. Yes I took a revenge on wrong people! Today I regret that action. Tribal discrimination meted on anyone, can potentially increase rage and a desire for revenge. This can be a source of insecurity!
No one should be punished over a tribe, something they have no control over. Let's fight tribalism in whichever way it manifests. @SpireJim
@nextradio_ug@odongaotto Hon. You are right but your suggestion requires Uganda to once again have a president of Amin's type; so tough, bald, courageous, confident and impartial. Otherwise such may not stand.
*Men,*
*Don't allow anger to control you,*
*Anger is poison that corrodes your masculine soul.*
*When agitated, don't show anger & fury in public,*
*Laugh it off!*
*Your enemies will use this weakness to crush you.*
*Remain stoic, unmoved and focused.*
I will maintain a courageous calm in the face of danger, scorn or ridicule, develop self restraint; and be constantly mindful of the welfare of others. Honest in thought and deed both in my personal and official life. I will be exemplary in my behaviour of obeying the law.
@RwothViO How do you expect the rest of the nation to know about Karamoja insecurity when the people we sent to represent us in national assembly are sleeping 😴?
