"President Museveni's Call to End Inefficiency: A Vision for Restructuring Uganda's Public Service and Accountability"

The crown media East Africa publications Fellow Ugandans, especially the Bazzukulu. Greetings, again. Real shocking information about the parasitic Agencies and Authorities. I had given you the figures of money spent on ministries compared to the money spent on the agencies and authorities. You remember, the figures were sh.2.6 trillion for the Ministries and Sh.2.2 trillion for the Agencies and Authorities by 2016, according to the Saleh committee that woke us up. In our usual resistance culture of always being guided by facts, I have now inquired more. What was the number of employees in the respective clusters this money was being spent on? The answer: In Agencies and Authorities, the employees were 3,905!! In Ministries, the number was 18,532 plus the undisclosed number of soldiers. Our army was smallest in number in 1991 after the Reduction in Force (RIF) of that time. At that time, it was 41,000. By 2016, when these figures were captured, it was more in numbers. This was because ...

The crown media East Africa publication   Ouma Patrick: A Man Well-Versed with the Affairs of Samia Bugwe Yet Invisible In Samia Bugwe central, a political enigma is steadily emerging—Ouma Patrick.

"President Museveni Addresses Coffee Sector Developments and Rationalization Policies"

This letter is published in Crown Media East Africa to keep Ugandans informed about ongoing government initiatives and the truth behind our economic strategies "President Museveni Addresses Coffee Sector Developments and Rationalization Policies" President Museveni's Letter on Coffee Fellow Ugandans, especially the Bazzukulu, greetings. The Church of Uganda Prayer Book, page 30, says: "They left undone what they ought to have done and they did what they ought not to have done, and there is no truth in them." The persistent falsehoods about the rationalization of parasitic and irrational agencies follow that logic. Some of these agencies were created under the NRM government when the economy was struggling and public servants were poorly paid. Some people are motivated only by personal remuneration, so we tactically allowed some government efforts to be executed outside departmental structures, paying higher salaries. This led to the creation of agencies like th...

Speaker Among's ‘Tribal’ Comment Sparks Outcry Amid UCDA Merger Debate

 Speaker Among's ‘Tribal’ Comment Sparks Outcry Amid UCDA Merger Debate By Crown Media East Africa Reporter KAMPALA – Parliament Speaker Anita Among is under public scrutiny following a hot microphone incident during Tuesday’s plenary session, where she inadvertently broadcast remarks perceived as ‘tribal’ in tone amid debate over a contentious proposal to merge the Uganda Coffee Development Authority (UCDA) with the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry, and Fisheries (MAAIF). The technical oversight by Parliament’s team has reignited accusations of bias, with critics questioning her impartiality in a debate that has already seen considerable opposition from lawmakers. The UCDA, established in 1991 to regulate Uganda’s coffee sector, has been pivotal in revitalizing coffee production and promoting Ugandan coffee internationally. With coffee as one of Uganda’s top foreign exchange earners, the authority provides essential support to farmers through training, research, and qualit...

Hidden Treasures Beneath Bukeddi: curse or Blessing?

 Hidden Treasures Beneath Bukeddi: Curse or Blessing? By Harto Agathon, The Crown Media East Africa In the eastern part of Uganda, a lucrative secret has long been whispered about the Bukeddi sub-region. Much like the resource-rich yet impoverished Karamoja, Bukeddi and neighboring districts such as Busia and Namayingo are rumored to sit atop vast mineral deposits, believed to include gold,  and other precious resources. Yet, despite these hidden treasures, the region remains one of the poorest in Uganda. Bukeddi, ranked as the second poorest region after Karamoja, faces a stark contrast between its potential wealth and its everyday reality. The rumors that the entire district of Busia, in particular, lies on top of a fortune have sparked the imaginations of fortune hunters, foreign investors, and even powerful political forces. However, the question remains: Are these mineral treasures a blessing or a curse for the people of the region? Wealth Beneath the Surface Mineral reso...

Museveni: The Bush Fighter Who Shaped Regional Peace from Congo to Sudan

Harto Agathon Contributor, Crown Media East Africa   Museveni: The Bush Fighter Who Shaped Regional Peace from Congo to Sudan President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni of Uganda has long been a figure synonymous with peace and stability in East and Central Africa. His decades in power have given him an enduring legacy, not only within Uganda but across a volatile region that stretches from the war-torn jungles of Congo to the conflict-ridden deserts of Sudan. This reputation was recently highlighted by former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson in a memoir, where he described Museveni as "that ancient bush fighter who is so important for the peace of the region." Johnson's remark is not only a reflection of Museveni's historical role as a freedom fighter but a recognition of his continued significance in the geopolitical stability of East Africa. While many view Museveni primarily through the lens of Uganda’s internal politics, his influence on regional security has been profound ...

By Harto Agathon, Crown Media East Africa General Muhoozi recently declared, "If ANYBODY is STUPID enough to attack us here in our country, I can only promise them hell, destruction, and defeat!! Afghanistan would look like a nice picnic compared to our Resistance. Our fathers showed us the way, sacrifice is better than slavery."

Below, we examine the implications of his message from both a military and political perspective. Military Analysis 1.
