NSSF-Temangalo deal, what gives?
I'm sure you will agree with me that what started as a land transaction between the National Social Security Fund and the security minister Amama Mbabazi and his associate Amos Nzeyi has morphed into an octopus with too many arms to keep up with.If the powers that be wanted me completely baffled they have done a commendable job. it seems that the stage has been set with some superb actors and some terribly lame ones. I can't get my head around the cast but I wish someone would explain to me the plot.Why are there so many diversions from the real issues? Here, there's a side circus of Barnabas Tinkasimire, Margaret Muhanga, Banyenzaki, etc. Then the Jim Muhwezi monkey act is given a new twist when the disruptive monkey is rounded up for having escaped its cage. There's this angle of the so called foiled robbery at Garden City (it's been ages since a bank robbery was foiled by our police, what vigilance!)Not to forget the chief court jester, Charles Rwomushana resigned or sent packing from the internal security body for talking too much.Who is policing who in this mix?What part is the media playing in all this?I can't keep up with the letters to the editor saying exactly the same thing, almost word for word. I have seen Mbabazi's face and heard his haughty voice on more talk shows this month than in my entire TV-watching and radio-listening life. Suddenly the NRM secretary general who was recently accused of being unavailable has become too available because he has to defend his controversial sale. Is there more going on masterminded by the top circus master at NRM?Are NSSF managers such fools that they would hand in all of sh11bn for land whose acreage, occupancy or topography they hadn't confirmed? Was the discovery of the deal accidental and the land titles hurriedly handed over to cover up for the irregular doling of workers' savings?When shall we know the truth?
