The decision to close DGF, NGOs, and passing the Protection of Sovereignty Bill is a typical lesson against ‘management by impulsiveness�� and ‘management by anger/fear’. They did not consider that:

I) You should one bird, and 50 fly away from the tree;
II) NGOs cushion government by providing many services that people would have demanded from government;
III) The NGO sector employs so many people (directly and by extension into other sectors), hence again reducing unemployment pressure for government. Suspending more NGOs at a time when many others were downsizing or closing due to USAID’s withdrawal was bound to worsen the effect. In fact, more funders of those which were still operational developed cold feet after observing the hostile environment. More are withdrawing.
IV) A sudden huge cutoff of foreign currency inflow and sending ‘don’t come’ signals to investors necessarily had to severely affect the shilling.

Unfortunately, now much of the burden is carried by the ordinary person through increased cost of living amidst reduced employment opportunities. The politicians that recklessly mess it up will still cushion themselves with taxpayers’ money. They have fuel cards. Their utilities are catered for by the taxpayer. Their cars are bought and maintained by the taxpayer. They are treated by the taxpayer. They travel to shop elsewhere using taxpayers’ money! It is that unfair and selfish.

“Yesterday, a S.5 student failed to express himself in English. Yet, a few years from now, he could graduate with a university degree. It hurts!”

Careful sir, this reasoning catches you too. You have equated speaking fluent English with being competent and educated, which is exactly the lazy thinking a good education is meant to cure. English is a language and it measures fluency, nothing more. A man can speak it beautifully and still reason terribly. So if poor English is your proof of a wasted education, the logic in your own post is doing you no favours.

That said, after roughly eleven years of English as the language of instruction, an S5 student being able to express himself in it is the bare minimum we should expect, so his struggle does expose a broken system.

My quarrel is only with the leap from there to treating fluent English as the thing that should earn a man his degree.

Do you know why people dig graves six feet deep to bury a dead person? Why must it be six feet? What would happen if a grave were only four, three or even two feet deep?

There are several reasons behind the six-foot burial tradition.

1. To prevent animals from digging up the body: Dogs, pigs and other scavenging animals can smell decomposing remains and may dig up a body buried too close to the surface. Greater burial depth makes this more difficult.

2. To reduce the spread of disease: In the past, people believed that disease-causing organisms could escape from shallow graves.

3. To contain unpleasant smells: As a body decomposes, gases and unpleasant odours are released. Adequate soil coverage helps contain these odours, particularly in hot climates.

4. To protect the grave from environmental disturbance: Heavy rainfall, soil erosion and other environmental factors can expose a shallow grave. Adequate burial depth helps protect the remains.

5. As a mark of respect: Deep burial also became associated with protecting the deceased from disturbance and preserving the dignity of the burial.

What happens if you dig only two, three or four feet?

- Two feet: This is generally too shallow for a conventional burial. The remains could become exposed through erosion, animal activity or other disturbances.

- Three feet: Still relatively shallow and may not provide adequate protection, depending on the soil, location and burial method.

- Four feet: This may meet burial requirements in some places, depending on local regulations, coffin construction and the amount of soil covering the coffin.

- Six feet: This is a traditional burial depth that provides substantial soil coverage and protection against disturbance.

P Diddy gave a singer a horse tranquilizer, left him in a dark basement for 7 hours, and ran his hand over his d*ck on camera while he was barely waking up. Diddy pulled off his shorts and put pants on him while he was out cold. After that night he started hearing voices saying “Puff is going to kill you.” He ran out of his house with screwdrivers stabbing trees. Hospitalized multiple times. He gets a psychiatric injection every month. That night broke his brain forever.

His name is Que. Diddy put him in a group called Day 26 on Making the Band. He was 21 and the youngest person in that house.

In the video below he tells it the way someone would read back their own medical file.

He says Dawn handed him two red pills by the pool at Diddy’s Hamptons house. Told him they were ecstasy from Puff. One for her, one for him. She never took hers. Twenty minutes later he was in the jacuzzi with Diddy and Cassie. He got hot. Then paranoid. Then he jumped in the pool and blacked out.

He woke up in a pitch black basement. Seven hours had passed. He was in shorts when he went under. He woke up in pants. His girlfriend Dawn was upstairs the whole night. Every couple in the house was together. He was the only one alone in the dark with his clothes changed.

He says on the video of them coming downstairs to film him, Diddy’s hand passes over his body. He says it felt demonic. “It felt like something tried to take my soul.”

He testified to Homeland Security. He says the prosecutors only asked the questions they wanted answers to.

Did P Diddy drug that kid as a prank, or did someone spend seven hours in that basement doing something his new pants were supposed to cover up?

Kibaki was a good president but a terrible politician, and his handling of the Ruto firing is one of the clearest examples.

When President Kibaki overruled Odinga’s suspension of William Ruto, he made a big political mistake. Ruto was an ODM minister under the power-sharing deal, and his suspension over the maize scandal was Raila dealing with his rebellious minister.

Kibaki had no reason to protect Ruto because it was an ODM matter. Instead, he stepped in to show Raila who had the final say in the Grand Coalition government. By protecting Ruto, Kibaki turned an ODM fight into a crisis for the whole Grand Coalition.

He also gave Raila the upper hand by making State House look like it was protecting a minister facing corruption allegations. The coalition fell into another crisis, with Raila’s side threatening to boycott Cabinet meetings.

But Kibaki made an even bigger mistake. He failed to see how ruthless the man he was protecting was.

After falling out with Raila, Ruto took his loyal bloc of Rift Valley MPs away from Odinga, but he didn't take them to Kibaki’s camp either. Ideally, he should have joined the camp of the man who had saved him. Instead, he became a third force in Parliament, with both PNU and ODM needing his votes.

Even worse, the ODM MPs, in retaliation and in defending Raila, hit back by targeting Kibaki’s ministers with censure motions and other parliamentary attacks.

Kibaki had stepped in to protect Ruto, only to make him stronger and turn Parliament into another battlefield.

He wanted to teach Raila a lesson about who was in charge. Instead, he created a crisis he did not need.

ATIAK SUGAR? It is not on UGANDAN Market-NOTHING! PRODUCTION was suspended in 2022, 5 years?!! Ostensibly, because of SUGARCANE SHORTAGE and WILD FIRES 🔥.....Was supposed to reopen this year(2026)but hasn't, until possibly 2028!!!!!

Btw, this ATIAK thing is most interesting: See, government is the biggest investor in this project, having injected in Shs 670BILLION! This accounts for about 86% of the TOTAL CAPITAL INVESTED IN ATIAK SUGAR. Yet, Uganda Government HOLDS A MINORITY STAKE OF JUST 40%! The private investor who has injected in just 34%, holds 60% stake;😉🤫!(Read Parliamentary budget disclosures report....etc). There other aspects don't want to go into here, but it's not like, you know, a standalone kind of thing......PLENTY OUR THERE..........!

The day Iran surrenders that Uranium, is when it's position as the NEW LIBYA/Iraq....will be sealed......
Different factions will be raised by Washington and Israel and ARMED. Probably, Kurds,etc will enter, Iran
will partitioned like LIBYA, and effectively will become a LEBANON. As long as the ISRAEL-PALESTINIAN CONFLICT persists, Israel and U.S will regard Iran as an EXISTENTIAL THREAT and seek to erase it as VIABLE STATE. Can only be allowed to exist as a failed state of the AFGHANISTAN type! Therefore, IRAN will only exist through it's OWN STRENGTH not Washington guarantees!

At the time, we warned Gaddafi when he was cosying up with his would be killers! I remember writing an open letter to Libyans and AU. We warned, then, that the day LIBYA DISARMS, is the day it will cease to exist as LIBYAN State we knew. I Remember some characters trashing the assessment- NOW SEE LIBYA......and GADDAFI?

Mikhaïl Kalachnikov, né le 10 novembre 1919, a inventé l'arme la plus répandue au monde, l'AK-47. À la fin de sa vie, il a écrit à l'Église.

« Ma douleur spirituelle est insupportable. »

Il naît dans un village de l'Altaï, en Sibérie, dans une famille de paysans.

En 1930, le régime de Staline classe sa famille parmi les « koulaks », les paysans jugés trop riches.

Elle est déportée dans la région de Tomsk, plus au nord.

Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, il commande un char.

En octobre 1941, il est grièvement blessé à la bataille de Briansk, face aux Allemands.

À l'hôpital, il entend les soldats se plaindre. Leurs fusils s'enrayent.

Une fois sorti, il se met au travail.

En 1947, il dessine un fusil d'assaut simple et robuste. On l'appelle AK-47, l'automatique Kalachnikov, modèle 1947.

En 1949, il devient l'arme de toute l'armée soviétique.

Puis il se répand dans le monde entier.

On estime à environ 100 millions le nombre d'exemplaires produits.

Il figure même sur le drapeau du Mozambique.

Kalachnikov, lui, reste toute sa vie un employé fidèle de l'État soviétique, puis russe.

Mais à la fin de sa vie, il écrit au chef de l'Église orthodoxe russe, le patriarche Kirill.

« Ma douleur spirituelle est insupportable. »

Une question le hante. Si son fusil a tué des gens, lui, chrétien orthodoxe, est-il responsable de leur mort ?

L'Église lui répond. Quand l'arme défend la patrie, elle soutient ceux qui la fabriquent et ceux qui s'en servent.

Il meurt en décembre 2013, à 94 ans. Sa lettre est publiée un mois plus tard.

Son fusil, lui, lui survit sur tous les continents.

[Greg Nwoko 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬 @nwoko_greg62705]

These four were the first 4-Star Generals in Nigerian Army history.

Gowon became General at 35. Murtala at 36. Obasanjo at 42. Babangida at 46.

They did not all become Generals at the same stage of life.

Two became Generals because they became Head of State. One became General because he took over after an assassination. One became General two years after he took power.

Here is the breakdown, with the dates so you all can check the maths yourself.

1. General Yakubu Gowon: Jack became 4-Star General at 35 years old, turning 36.

Born: October 19, 1934
Became General: 1970, at the end of the Civil War.

Gowon was a Lieutenant Colonel when he became Head of State on August 1, 1966. He was only 31 years old. To match his position as Head of State, he promoted himself to Major General just before the Civil War started in 1967.

Then, at the end of the Civil War in 1970, he promoted himself to full General.

If it was before October 19, 1970, he was 35. If it was after October 19, 1970, he was 36. Most histories list it simply as 1970, so we say 35 going to 36. Some lists round it to 1971, which would make him 36. Either way, he was the youngest of the four to wear 4 stars.

2. General Murtala Muhammed: Became 4-Star General at 36 years old, announced at 37.

Born: November 8, 1938
Became Head of State: July 29, 1975, as a Brigadier
Became General: Promoted in January 1976, with effect from July 1975

This one confuses people, so let me explain it clearly.

When Murtala overthrew Gowon in July 1975, he was NOT a General. He was a Brigadier. He took power as Brigadier Murtala Muhammed. He then jumped straight from Brigadier to General in one hop.

The promotion was announced in January 1976, but it was backdated to July 1975, to the day he took power.

So, by the backdated date, July 1975, he was 36 years old. He would turn 37 in November 1975.
By the announcement date, January 1976, he was already 37.

That is why some books say he became General at 36, and some say 37. Both are correct, depending on whether you count the effective date or the announcement date.

He was assassinated on February 13, 1976, at 37 years old, after only 201 days in office.

3. General Olusegun Obasanjo: Became 4-Star General at 42 years old

Born: March 5, 1937
Became Head of State: February 13, 1976, at 38 years old
Became General: 1979, at 42 years old.

Obasanjo himself confirmed it this week in a BBC interview. He said, and I quote his words: Now I had to retire at the age of 42. At the age of 42, I had become a four-star general.

Here is the detail people miss.

When Obasanjo took over after Murtala was killed in February 1976, he was NOT a full General. He was a Lieutenant General. He had been promoted to Lieutenant General in January 1976, just one month before.

He ruled as Head of State as a Lieutenant General from 1976 to 1979. He was then promoted to full General in 1979, shortly before he handed over power to Shehu Shagari on October 1, 1979.

Born March 5, 1937, he turned 42 on March 5, 1979. So when he retired in October 1979, he was 42 years old and a full 4-Star General. That is exactly what he said.

So Obasanjo was Head of State at 38, but General at 42.

4. General Ibrahim Babangida: Became 4-Star General at 46 years old.

Born: August 17, 1941
Became Head of State: August 27, 1985, as a Major General
Became General: October 1, 1987, at 46 years old.

When he overthrew Buhari in August 1985, he was a Major General. He was Chief of Army Staff. He ruled for two years as a Major General.

Then, on October 1, 1987, he was promoted to full General.

Born August 17, 1941, he turned 46 on August 17, 1987. So on October 1, 1987, he was 46 years old.

He is the oldest of the four to become a 4-Star General.

Summary for my post, in order:

Gowon: 35 turning 36, in 1970
Murtala: 36, effective July 1975, announced January 1976 at 37
Obasanjo: 42, in 1979
Babangida: 46, on October 1, 1987.
