The DPP is one of the most amiable, humble and honest civil servants. As we aspire for a better nation, we should never ridicule such honourable civil servants.

The most crazier part of this deal is JSC-GS telling govt that it will collect $39m annually from fines and it will fine every Ugandan car/motorcycle on our roads four times a year. Gov't accepted and signed to this proposition. Weird. theafricareport.com/322468/ugandan…

I write about stealing of Museveni's cows which prompted him to label them YKM. Thieves stole 180 cows in 2011. I also write cultural & emotional value of Ankole cows & how they are becoming a big thing-in value & a tourism item. Don't miss a map of where president's farms are.

Hehehe! If assistants of our big people have no faith in the banana republic, how about ordinary folks of down town Kampala who govt is telling to register on EFRIS and pay taxes.

Taxation is a difficult task in which you play with the human mind. URA should hire psychologists and behavioral scientists to help it be experimenting human behaviours in relation to taxation. For me, I think, this is very important.
