Peoples’ money in Uganda is spent extravagantly. We have been told that the swearing in ceremony of the new Makerere University Guild President, Ivan Kata has cost the university 200 millions. The money has been used to buy eats, buffets, sodas and beers just to please the students.

The swearing in ceremony took place at Makerere University’s main hall on Friday and the guest of honour has been Democratic Party President Norbert Mao.

Ivan Kata is a member of the Democratic Party. But the NRM members and leadership in Makerere have condemned the university’s decision to use 200 millions in organising a students party when some halls of residence are leaking, students eat poorly and some corners of the university have no security lights. The critics say that the university would have used only 20 million shillings in organising the party.

Kata thanked the students’ leadership for intrusting him with the mandate to lead the ivory tower (Makerere University). He promised to cough fire when president Museveni’s government or the ministry of education and or Makerere University passes anti students policies.

The students were demonstrating over poor sanitation in their toilets and internship money. When they went to demand for an explanation why the toilets could not be fixed and why they could not get their internship money the arrogant IT professor could not give them an appropriate explanation.

He was only advising the already charged students to keep quiet so that he talks to them. This prompted the angry students to get stones and canes so that they could discipline him. The IT professor had first refused to address these students and he locked himself in his office until the intervention of prof. Tanga Odoi, the chairperson of Makerere University Academic Staff Association.

The students also demanded for his resignation. The police intervened and the IT professor managed to escape.

We have been reliably informed that currently when Nambooze brings an argument Lukwago openly fights it. The bad meat between Nambooze and Lukwago started during the appointment of the Deputy Mayor.

Sources say that Nambooze had requested Lukwago to choice a catholic and an opposition councilor to be the deputy mayor since Lukwago was a Muslim.

The development came after the Democratic Party requested Lukwago to appoint Sulaiman Kidandala as the deputy mayor ofKampala. Nambooze argued that her resistance was not to rebel against the decision of the Democratic Party but she only wanted Lukwago to balance religions. Lukwago accepted and brought two names before the councilors to approve one of them to be the deputy mayor. That was the name of Luyiga and that of Kidandala.

When the councilors pressed him to give them one name for them to approve, Lukwago dropped that of Luyiga and gave them Kidandala. The furious Nambooze went out of the hall, jumped into her car and drove off. And this could explain why Nambooze announced to campaign for an NRM candidate in Luweero woman MP race while Lukwago declared to support the DP candidate in the race.

Lukwago says if anybody is complaining of any vacant place at the city hall, they should consult President Museveni for the over 13 vacant offices on technical side including the Deputy Executive Director.

This follows last week’s KCCA Executive Director Jennifer Musisi Ssemakula’s statement resolving not to recognize and facilitate Kidandala as the deputy lord mayor until a clear procedure of appointment is respected and approved by the Authority as the law requires.

However, Lukwago has warned those attempting to vote him out of office for another Lord Mayor to avoid doing so since its people who voted him into office and not a single person.

They must also indicate their logistical base, equipments, key personel, copies of memoranda, certificate of incorporation, and certificate of registration in case of a CBO. We have also learnt that the registration shall be conducted by the office of the executive director at City hall building.

She was responding to concerns that KCCA is doing little to solve the situation of big potholes and water logged ditches in the old taxi park.

Musisi says that the past regime at City hall had given out contracts to developers to build buildings in most of what makes up the Old Taxi park.

She also says that whereas the Authority has tried to execute its plans and programs of ensuring the city is kept clean and well managed, it is limited by the strict provisions of the Procurement law.

She said that the authority cannot easily access spare parts for the road maintenance equipments or buy the necessarily material to fix the potholes within a short period of time as many people would like.

Musisi also added that KCCA is facing a challenge of inadequate staff to efficiently execute its programs.
