Shame on you guys in Zana.

I left the dirty toilet very frustrated and depressed that the woman in a kiosk restaurant didn't give me any tissue yet I paid. I was really feeling bad; she didn't even provide water for to wash my hand after visiting the toilet. There was also nothing like a sign of water cans around the toilet, this proved that all people who visit this, always ignore the fact that, one should always wash his/her hands after a toilet service. Shame on you guys in Zana. I still recall you.


I jumped the road barriers to the other side of the road on the left hand side to continue my way to JS residence. I walked a down road that had no signpost and no name just like most of the bad faded, dirty off roads you see in Kampala metropolitan city and its suburbs; I knew that it was the one because JS told me the mark that I looked around. It was a kiosk of a guy who makes roadside chapatis, (Pan-grilled unleavened flatbread). selling also airtime, and then had faded adverts of the useless East African Common market that kicked off on 1st July 2010.

I arrived at the house of JS, the Pan Africanist. His compound was good, greenly and well organized. His maid ushered me in the main room. She presented a chair for me, but minutes after I sat down, she introduces me to the new rooms which was of course the office of JS.I quietly sat myself. The maid brought me a glass of water. It was cool and tastefully. I think all water are tasteful even though we know that water is tasteless, may be I do not know what's the taste of Water.

Well, after 30 minutes of waiting, JS came in, warmly greeted me. He was warm and lively after a very long time of not meeting each other. He iniated the issues that bhe wanted to talk with me, and guess what, like I said in my first article, he was more concerned about Panafricanism and what should be done to make issues known to the general public. After almost two hours of discussions, JS waved me off and it was nice talking to him, I was convinced with his concerns and I told him, I will be considering working him in all possible ways but also I warned him that, this doesn't mean that I agree with whatever he thinks and he said "It's alright brother".

I arrived at the taxi stage at around 10:15 am and jumped in taxi immediately on the window seat. It’s my favorite seat but these days, am very cautious about it since the bandits started pouring Acid into taxis previous with hope that Acid will get to whoever their enemies are but later ended up hurting innocent passengers.

The Sun was very up and shiny. I was here on the road, thinking of course nothing, not even what we have talked with JS.I noticed something. I started seeing more and more signposts announcing churches, almost every five minutes; I spotted another signpost announcing a church and its pastor. There’s even one that carried the photography of a senior Pastor in that particular church.

I started questioning why should one put the pictures of a senior Pastor, what’s the purpose of it? With no answers coming, I choose to ignore everything I show, but again continued asking why, is it that there was no signpost announcing any public toilet on the road?

If we can have signpost of God's massive business and empires that helps no one but the pastor and his Family (not even church members), Why can't we have big well painted signposts announcing clean better conditioned Toilets on our roads? I hope you help me find answers.

No shitting in the toilet when it comes to Zana township.

I was in Kasaana Luweero when a friend of mine called me. This was his first call. I wondered what could be that made him initially call me. I wanted to make the phone busy but chose to pick him up. It was now 4pm Kampala time." Hi Quitstorm, this is JS calling you. I have some issues that i would like you to help me with, are you in Kampala?" the voice behind the phone asked. I answered that am not in Kampala but if the issues are urgent, i will be making it tomorrow. He agreed.


JS is a pan Africanist. I have not asociated much with pan Africanism, whatever that means, I must say that it's one area that had never crossed my mind and never tried to look into the history of PanAfricanism. I have read somewhere that it started as a movement to empower and equip blacks wherever they are to stand up and take control of their destinies. If that's true, am not sure.

From my observation, Pan Africanism is a concept to extricate Africans from the grip of European/American colonialism; but yet, British/American Big Oil can get African leaders to sign contracts without obligating anyone to redistribute the wealth among the poor of Africans in Africa. Instead, the African leaders redistribute the oil wealth among members of their family and close friends. And try to extricate religious Africans from the psychosis of the Muslim and Christian religions! Lot's of luck!

There's a Pan Africanist movement in Uganda with a bold suitable offices in Kamwokya. I have talked to them and they happen to have one dream. That's creating a single Government for all the 53 countries of Africa. This is the same dream for Libyan President Muammer Gaddaffi, who will be joining other heads of Government in Kampala this July 2010 under African Union. This Sounds like another religion to me--get everyone in the world to unite and worship Allah. That was the dream of the Soviet Union--to unite the workers of the world under Communism, and this would solve everyone's problems.

The other problem with Pan Africans--which is pie-in-the-sky like Communism--is that it would erect barriers to Western technological developments. As humans, we must teach and learn from one another--regardless of national borders.

I must stand on the rooftop and shout loud that am against both, the East African political Federation and the Pan African single Government. (53 countries with one President). I am against this because, Countries in Africa are failing to fully build a functioning system of Governance desirable to its citizens and as a result, we see almost all 53 African Union member states failing and rotten. If you cannot manage a smaller territory, why would you dream of managing a huge empire like Africa? Give me one single Country in Africa which has suitable political governance system acceptable to its citizens. This topic deserve its own article which I will discuss soon.

I made a decision that very early in the morning, I will be in Kampala. I boarded a taxi at around 6am and arrived in Kampala at around 7am.Urgently jumped in another taxi to Zana where JS resides.

Zana is a small township along Entebbe Road but growing so rapidly. Its population is very depressing but the business environment can make you stay. Minutes after I jumped of the taxi, I felt like visiting a toilet/latrine. I have wanted to do this earlier before, but choose to hold on because no place to spot a public toilet anywhere.

Now I was in Zana. I quickly walked to the taxi tout and I kindly requested him to direct me to any public toilet facility. He pointed me to the market closely on the roadside and told me to ask the lady next to an electricity pole. There was a distance which I could hardly walk; the desire to visit the toilet was now even stronger than what I can hold on.

When I arrived to the market, I walked directly to the lady who the taxis tout said had the keys. This lady quickly pointed me to another lady; I tried to walk there with my thumbs holding my butt not to let anything out. This P lady now told me that someone had taken the keys, and he/she will not allow me to use the toilet which was almost 30 meters from where I was standing and it was invisible. I choose to either walk direct to JS or walk in someone's residence and seek help.

I walked to almost three homes and they didn't allow me to use their toilets even when they saw that I was in a harder situation, I walked to another place and this time, it was a kiosk restaurant and when I asked the lady if I could use the toilet, she pretended as if she didn't hear me, after explaining, she said in fluent Luganda that "SASULA SENTE" (pay money). I asked how much and why she couldn't immediately told that she wanted money in hand. She got the keys and walked me to the toilet. It had three rooms each closed with a padlock.

As we were walking there, I asked her if she had toilet paper and she kept quiet. This was too much for me; I have paid my money but still couldn't have a toilet tissue/paper. The toilet was extremely dirty and had a strong smell that affected my digestion system. When I told an American friend about this, he said that in his country, all restaurants and bars have their bathroom facilities open to the public. Members of the public can use them free of charge--even if they don't buy anything.

I felt good after this visit even though I felt unfairly treated by the people of Zana. Please dare not miss my next article as I finish the narration of this.

When uncelebrity life inspires lives.

I have taken long without writing on my blog. It's not because I dried up, but its because of some personal challenging moments I have been facing and still face. I am so pressed for time that I had to sacrifice my best morning show on my best Radio station. I also decided to get off Internet and spend only seven to ten minutes simply checking emails and answering those "troubling" questions about almost on everything: from politics, to pro-GLBT rights, pro-abortion rights, what I do to earn a living (This is one of the questions I get almost seven times a day not sure why people ask it, I rarely ask anyone what he/she does for a living. because this fake Government in Kampala sold all State owned companies, so almost 90 of the people in Kampala are survivors in their own means), to why I oppose over population and finally they ask me "what do I consider to be safer improved contraceptives for women".


This afternoon, I came online and found an online friend who happens to be in Kampala or I say in Uganda. I have known him for sometime now and he is really a good fan of me online. He reads almost everything I post but rarely comments. I never met him "Live", I mostly found him already left but his numerous foot prints always get seen by many.

This time, he was online live and when I initiated a chat with him, he replied very loudly, something that made me think that he had waited for a chat with me for long. He warmed up as if he did receive a call from the USA President Barack Obama. He went direct to the question that I least expected, "Hey hey Quitstorm, why are you not posting anything these days, have you dried up?" I took almost fifteen minutes convincing him that am still the old folk he knew and that I have not dried up. He then shared with me how "my boldness, frankness, zeal, and commitment" towards issues that concerns me make him even much stronger and happier but above all, my comments force him to stand up and be counted.

Honestly speaking, this was not the first time I heard anyone say it. I receive many emails from people, some who are not even in Kampala (but heard me on Radio) or read any of my advices somewhere, these emails are sent to express their appreciation for me for whatever am trying to push that can make Uganda a much more better place for all. Indeed I stand for better lives than well.

They thank me for not being fearful of the regime in Kampala (while I disagree with most of the polices that the National Resistance Movement government sells to Ugandans, I have not been a political activist in any way). I cannot stop imagining why the oppressed people of Uganda shouldn’t build up a resistance movement against the Pentecostal theocracy which describes the Museveni’s government.

Is Uganda a theocracy? Or a secular government where prayers are done in the closet? "And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. “For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others."--Matthew 6:5.

Instead of criminalizing the criminals in the Government, Museveni is offering prayer dinners while wasting out state funds with them. Come on, prayers cannot do any change; it’s just a way of talking to yourself when you are frustrated. My concerns affects the common man and that’s the one am standing up for and am doing this voluntarily, I must say it loud here that am not going to stand for any political office but of course I will campaign for the suitable candidate for presidency.

I make issues known, I also receive more emails abusing and threatening my life. I have also received strong criticism and to my critics, you owe me so much that I have dramatically improved on what I can do best.

Well, I told my online friend that, to honor the live chat, I will write a blog post for him and he accepted, I even shared a picture of me with him, he is extra-ordinary and very brave with ambition to create a name on the Ugandan stage but not through prayer robbery or child ritual killing!

He assured me that there are many fields where he can still contribute and make the name sound. He shared a little bit of them and my only advice to him was that...."Man, blow your own trumpets" if you have them, do not wait anyone to blow it for you.So my online friend, where you may be, please know that you are very close to my heart and that you will always be treasured in my life. Keep the good work up.

State murder for sexual affairs.

State murder for sexual affairs--or orientation--is itself on trial by the world.  Even in Iran, they've backed off from stoning a woman for "adultery."   The article says that it's not a fact that the death penalty has been lifted--but I think it will be.  Likewise, the Anti-Homosexuality Act of 2009 in Uganda will die in committee and will never see life.Read more here

Can President Obama be the best President as many voters presumed?

This may answer some of our questions as to why it is practically impossible for Ugandans to get a visa to any non-African country.
In this photo,distance between Haiti and US

Haiti is a little under 1,000 km from the Florida coast.* That's still a very large distance to travel by wooden raft or small boat in an area that can be suddenly hit by bad weather. And when the weather is calm with cloudless skies, it's the burning sun all day long. And by the time they approach Florida, the US Coast Guard intercept them and will brutally turn Haitians away. As anyone can see, they can't go back to Haiti--they barely made it to Florida!

So now USA  have a black President who I would think would be sensitive to human rights--but being brought up in a middle-class life he doesn't seem to have the sensitivity towards racial minorities that many of them who voted for him thought he would.

We imitate our friends, their friends

By Dr. IAN CLARKE

I read about a lift service engineer in Dubai who committed suicide by tying himself to the undercarriage of his lift. When someone then called the lift to an upper floor the lift ascended and he was immediately killed by hanging. The unfortunate lift attendant left a suicide note stating that he had not been paid for six months and could not support his family.

His method of suicide was macabre, since he used the instrument which should have been his livelihood as the means of his death. His body went undiscovered for four days, during which time the lift went up and down with the corpse getting more mangled every time it hit the basement. It was a sad end to an unknown person’s life and it did not seem entirely rational, since logically his death will leave his family in an even worse position. I also read in a Kampala newspaper some time back, about an Indian gentleman who went to the Casino, presumably in a last ditch attempt to have a win which would pay his debts. When he failed he walked to the top of the building and threw himself off. Workers in China started committing suicide by jumping off buildings as a protest against low wages. The company rapidly responded with a large increase in salaries, but not before 12 workers had followed suit.

Suicide is contagious, not through touch, but the idea is contagious. In our perceptions and beliefs we are more influenced by those around us than we realise. Studies have shown that we are influenced by our friends (which is no surprise), but also by our friends’ friends and even by our friends’ friends’ friends. If one person jumps off a building, then another person may begin to think that this is a solution to their problems and follow suit. It is as if they have been given permission by the first suicide. This phenomenon explains the rash of suicide bombers we have today — they have witnessed many others doing it. They have also been brain-washed that this is a noble act and that it is the means of escape from this life of sorrow to nirvana.

It is a trait of human nature that we copy things very easily — when one person throws acid, other people think about doing it, if a man boasts of infecting women with HIV, others are influenced by his behaviour. If one boda boda guy rides with recklessness and bravado, this becomes the style for everyone. One need not wonder why child sacrifice has become so common, it is because a few people started and others joined in, calling it a traditional cultural rite. We are not independent from one another and are susceptible to being changed by what is going on around us. I used to think that patients would believe me as the doctor when I gave them the scientific explanation for a disease such as malaria or HIV, but over the years I have found their understanding of scientific theories is tremendously influenced by other factors. These range from gossip, to what they see around them, to traditional cultural beliefs, indeed in all walks of life in Uganda, evidence plays only a secondary role.

So you might believe that you are the master of your own decisions (and you are responsible for them), but you are also being influenced by the community you are a part of. Therefore, if I wish to change your behaviour, should I reason with you or should I first influence those around you and they will do the work for me? Have you ever wondered why corruption is spreading so rampantly today? Just look around — people are adopting the values they see in their friends and their friends’ friends. So the message is that if you really want to change an individual, you also need to work on the wider community. It is not that an individual cannot change, but he will be swimming against the current. This is why our leadership, in terms of the Church, cultural leaders and political leaders are so important, because they can set the standards for the community — but they often fail to understand the role they play.

President Museveni called Ugandan past leaders "swines" but he is a total idiot.

Many will agree that Museveni isn't too bright, but this is pure idiocy. Or, Museveni knows fully well that prayers for anything are a waste of time. So the President is attempting to get the nation to divert their attention from doing something meaningful against those who steal from the people. Those who steal our national resources. Read  Museveni turns to God in fight against corruption


This is actually funny: 'Mr Museveni cautioned that Uganda risks losing out on God’s blessings for if disobedience prevails “on the other hand, we stand to gain if, we obey God”.' Hey, the high-level thieves are receiving blessings--the people's money. They probably know that there is no such thing as a god.

Last paragraph of the Monitor article: "The President cites bribery, human sacrifice, sexual perversion, witchcraft and misuse of funds as some of the immoral things that have affected the country."

There is no such thing as "sexual perversion." There is sexuality in all its natural forms. This is another distraction constantly promoted by Museveni and the so-called "ethics" man. Bribery, human sacrifice, witchcraft, and confiscating public funds ARE immoral. And the biggest moral crimes that can be committed by high-ranking officials is associating with America's evangelists. We must get rid of them, We must get rid of colonalism that is returning to Uganda/Africa through religions.

President Museveni can still be defeated.

Previously in Monitor daily paper, It was reported that.Museveni has 43% of the electorate.  M7 needs about 7.5% to win a majority. But 18% of the voters are not committed to M7.  Half of those voters--or 9%--could go to Kizza Besigye.  The other 9% could be divided among the other candidates--including M7.

One of the first things Besigye and any other winner from the opposition should do, if he wins, is to use his time in office to change the Constitution to impose either a one six-year term limit, or two 4-year term limits on the Presidency.

If Mr Besigye wants to go down in African history as a positive influence and an example for all other heads-of-state to follow, he should gracefully step down and the end of this constitutional limit, and support his replacement.

These Kiboko guys in Uganda's Capital Kampala.

This may be difficult to explain, but this seems to be curious at best:
1)  "The police chief, who never left his car, instructed his commanders to make sure the Kiboko Squad was out of public view."

2)  "the bulk of these men are traders employed in such businesses as hawking and vending."

The article tells me that the Kiboko are in the vending business, unless they're being paid by the police to beat people up as ordered. 

Somebody is telling the police chief to "control" certain activities in Kampala--such as demonstrations or organised protests against certain government policies or actions.

Therefore, if members of the Kiboko are venders, there should be an individual or group of individuals who give them literature (assuming they can read Luganda or English) explaining basic principles of democracy and why discouraging or harming those fighting against the Big Boys (M7 and others) is actually hurting the lumpen or members of the lowest of the working class or the chronically unemployed.  In other words, they are hurting themselves.

They must be shown that accepting small cash from the police is a cheap way of protecting the interests of the upper class in Uganda.

These Kiboko guys accept police money because they are poor, but also because of the thrill of being permitted and encouraged to beat people up.  In ordinary life they know they are very unimportant and impotent, but being paid by the police gives them a momentary feeling of importance.

I assume that when they're in the role of being a vendor, one could talk to them.My readers,please tell me how best we can talk to these guys!.

Post-apartheid S. Africa? No different.

I'm waiting to see if this happens: 'Local commentators have decried that the new stadiums will turn into "white elephants" after the World Cup.'There were promises after the fall of apartheid: 'After the historic all-race elections in 1994, the ruling African National Congress promised to build a house for every poor family to redress the injustices of apartheid. But today, cities such as Cape Town face acute housing shortages, pushing the poor to squat on public land or occupy empty buildings, even sidewalks.'

Read this story that I didn't see: In preparation for World Cup, the poor in Cape Town are being relocated
