The Mis-educaton of the Ugandan psyche.. posted on August 25, 2010 - 11:50pm
Forget the grandiose title, this is another one about Uganda’s education system and  its nay-sayers. Somehow I stumbled onto this, so my patriotic self gave his two-cents’ worth. That post reminded me of a  debate that has been going on for a very long time, is Uganda’s education system relevant for today’s learner or better yet for Uganda’s needs, both current and future?

It does not even come close to May by Elly Wamala :~). Sara Tavare’s Exala is it. Abawuliriza ebirala, ebyo byabwe.
Embalasasa! posted on August 18, 2010 - 3:06am
Yes, embalasasa, it said title and I thought why not give ‘em the title of what I am listening to? Right now I can not stop playing Samite’s streaming media, Olusoka, Look for the Sunset, and of course Embalasasa. Olusoka for the flute, Look for the sunset has a great sultry female voice in there, sounds like the angelic Angela Kalule, and embalasasa for the piano. I cannot help but paint a picture of a lethargic Mulondo being carried to wherever , calling to his Jajja nti embalasasa eruma, ayanguwe tugitte. Owubutiko, well I have news for you, etuluma! Yajja n’erangi era nnungi nnyo gwe why not if the NewVision’s polls are to be believed?
A lesson in Comparing. posted on March 11, 2010 - 6:27pm
I find the way Ugandans flip-flop about the Ugandan Education system interesting, to say the least. One moment there are castigating it for its comprehensiveness, then the next, they go on about its compartmentalisation. This they say in view of the dismal performance the Ugandans put up in a certain University TV Quiz show. If anyone is so desperate to measure or compare education systems, using the Zain Challenge, the slightest chance could be found in the off-cuff answers that they give when the moderator asks them about themselves. Look out for the subtle nuances of personal communication, though unfortunately, these also seem to be rehearsed lately, not in the answers they give to those cognitive or rote/memory answers.

This is for you Sserumaga. Weebale Omwoyo gwa Buganda ogutafa. Ladies and gentlemen, please join in me in welcoming yet a new release from Africa’s premier Record Label- Uganda, well known for its release/publishing of monster hit albums. True to its form, reminiscent of the 60?s into the 70?s, its latest album titled the “vAGARIES OF pOOR uPBRINGING” has success written all over it. It opens with a cheesy tune titled Kimeeze. On this one the lead female vocalist, a princess in the Nyoro kingdom belts out a tune decrying the way ebimeeza are sabotaging the oil siphoning or pilferage schemas. It is arranged with electronic beats that you could hear on Philly Lutaaya’s Hanifa.
