Every man for himself

That seems to be the norm here in Uganda. It is disgusting and it sickens me to the stomach. It is a stupid mentality that is getting me to have the lady of a nigga. The weak emotion...HATE!!! Not so much as hating Uganda but hating the one Power that "bes" and that is His Excellency the President of Uganda. I have seen this man let himself down on numerous occasions that it is no longer plain sad, it is now absurd. This fool has strangely outdone his stupidity time and again that it is complete naivety to get surprised at the strange things he does. I am probably a biased critic because he has wronged me and my profession time and time again but seriously, who does the things that this guy does.

He once said during the time of the Lecturers' strike at Makerere that these educators should not have waited for his cabinet to propose the budget into parliament so as to air out their grievances. Well, as far as I can remember from my university days, these lecturers have gone on strike about their salary increment every beginning of a semester. Yet this fool wants us to believe that he did not know anything about it. Thinking that he can try out his humor tactics so as to get us off point, he instead infuriated the whole country when he asked them to go rare goats. He is so stupid, his life is a line straight out of a "Yo Momma" joke.

Now we are having the teacher crisis and this fool wants us to just go on without an increment well knowing how much the cost of leaving is eating at us. A 20% increment is all that is being asked for yet the law allows for as far as 40% increment with all the changes taking place 100% would be the way to go. With total disregard to diplomacy, he goes on to intimidate these good citizens of the country whose work is under appreciated and is actually getting harder because of the poor policies of his (Museveni) government. We have gone to the dogs because of him and the sooner he gets out of State House the better we all will be.

People often say that teachers are cry babies and need to take responsibility for their predicament. For some it might be true but this is not entirely true. We've been asked to set up Saccos and save our money. A  teacher is one of the most underpaid civil servants. Where are they goin to get the money to save if they can barely make ends meet with what they have. It is ludicrous to even suggest that it is the teachers letting themselves down. No one in the higher places sems to be on their side. Even the opposition MPs crying foul on our behalf are almost doing it as an act of Civil Disobedience to foster their ambitions of getting in power.

 The system is broken.  And it is the perfect embodiment of the name of my blog: We Are Neanderthals
