I
many times wonder whether some people imagine that we have to digest whatever
rubbish they come out with as if we do not have the slightest common sense, as
if we wasted time going to school that they are at liberty to feed is with any
trash simply because they believe Museveni has to be at the whelm in Uganda
whether people are fed up or not.
You
need to be a big fool if not an idiot who is ‘educated’ to believe that at this
moment in time, candidate Museveni can get even 60% in the polls. Yes, we have many who have not gone to
school, but surely, many are not that much of fools not to see how things are
mismanaged. Those in –charge may be at
liberty to take us through a pre-determined poll, but they should know, they
are fooling themselves. Majority of
Ugandans see that the economy is in a big mess.
Many are turned beggars, many are losing their land to thieves who loot
the national coffers and turn round to buy villages. Now majority know how the Government of
Museveni is mismanaging their tax payer resources only to leave them this dysfunctional
schools, hospitals and health facilities, many roads are impassable, and the
few that have been worked on, have commission agents who have eaten into the
cost and it is that idiot of a Ugandan who is ready to pay even more by
granting another 5 years to Museveni, but the truth is that such people cannot
make up 71% of the electorate, may they could in a stolen poll. This is possible if:
1.
Gadgets used have pre-determined
manipulation favouring Museveni;
2.
People are threatened by the crime preventers and
other security operatives;
3.
If the voter verification exercise
ends up dis-favouring some people and or collapsing completely in the process.
You
then wonder why countries like Uganda waste resources to finance elections
which are manipulated to favour those in the seat, and eventually end up a
potential time bomb for instability.
Donors, EC disagree over results gadgets
The Electoral Commission says they have
already procured results transmission kits for the February 18 polls despite a
major co-sponsor for the project denying the commission funding.
The Democratic Governance Facility (DGF), which had earlier committed to support half of the Shs 9 billion procuring of Electronic Results Transmission and Dissemination System (ERTDS), pulled out citing irregularities in the procurement process of the project.

“Government
of Uganda fully funds our budget. However, if a development partner decides to
supplement government and provides the Electoral Commission support, it’s
always welcome. What I want to confirm is that EC has already procured ERTDS,”
EC spokesman Jotham Taremwa said in an interview with Daily Monitor.
In
an interview with Uganda Radio Network (URN), Mads Mayerhofer, the chairperson
of DGF’s Steering Committee, said their decision was prompted by EC’s
cancelling of the contract that had been awarded to Cytel in favour of Avante,
under suspicious circumstances.
“After
careful consideration, DGF decided that the last-minute decision to change
provider raised concern as to the transparency of the procurement process as
well as the timely implementation of the ERTDS itself,” Ms Mayerhofer told URN.
