MONEY MATTERS

So,you have worked for a company five years. Fine.
That means you have got what it takes to be a good employee. But valuing the accomplishments you achieve within the five years makes you worried.
Most employees never want you to leave their jobs. They want you to work for them for a life time.
If you want to prove this,let your boss find out that you own a business some where. You will regret it the rest of your life.
Working in a private company is something very tricky,because as an employee,you are not sure of your retirement.

PLIGHT OF SUPERMARKET ATTENDANTS

There are very many people working in supermarkets across the city of Kampala. But if you are to ask them what they go through,then,your face must be in position of turning glassy.
Research carried out in most supermarkets,especially those owned by Ugandans,most employees are not given time to develop themselves. A reason as to why they remain poor.
Most supermarkets do not appoint their workers. Therefore,most of them work not knowing when their jobs would end. In case one makes a mistake,he or she is chased immediately. This makes the general population suffer most.
It has also been observed that workers ministry do not recognise the plight of supermarket attendants,especially in visiting and holding discussions with them. Most of these supermarket attendants come from poor families. So,the little they get comes by the will of God. Even though they complain,they won't expect much.
But these too are Ugandans who deserve their full rights.
I appeal to all stakeholders to carry out serious investigations on how these people are treated such that they too can enjoy the plight of being Ugandans.
Time.
The issue of time is valued by many employers. But the rate at which their employees get time to concentrate on their families is worse.
The eight hour working hour has turned to 20hour work a day.
Most supermarket attendants report for work as early as 7:30am and leave at 11:00pm,.
This amused me. For sure what a hell is this torture? Is it because their are few jobs in the country?
I appeal to stakeholders mostly ministry for workers to revise their documents and save the plight of supermarket attendants.
In situation where the companies become busy,like Christmas period,go back to school,these attendants are made to work up to midnight. This is a great concern as citizens.
Moreover, they won't get paid for those extra hours.
I tell you,supermarket attendants are suffering a lot.
This has become a life beyond fiction.
NOTE: Government should consider visiting these supermarkets for the betterment of these workers.

ELECTORAL COMMISSION APPOINTMENT.

Satisfaction is what every human being want in life. If you eat food,it is obvious that you wish to get satisfied. If not,that means you will sleep hungry.
Satisfaction is also part of human being's way of living. We all live to be satisfied.
In a situation where one fails to be satisfied,problems have to arise.
Comrades, appointment of independent electoral commission in a multiparty system of governance shall never satisfy citizens,especially where the one in charge of appointment happens to be a leader of another political party.
Well in Uganda,many citizens have grieved for independent electoral commission for many years. Its high time,the multiparty system of governance gets its own independent electoral commission where all parties nominate representatives on the board.
This will reduce on the poor electoral arrangements where majority thinks the ruling party gets more favor.
Uganda went into multiparty system of governance,but there has not been balance in leadership,and appointments based on political parties. If this system doesn't change,Ugandans may never prove the reality of free and fair elections.
A lot has to be done if this is to be achieved.
Engineer Badru Kiggundu has retired with a lot of criticism from the public. Many Ugandans have cursed and cartooned him to the extent of linking him to humor of the recent US elections where he was called by Madam Clinton for help.
This is a bad image to a prominent man who too needs freedom in his country. All this hate has been due to lacking sufficient appointment board to consider the grievances of political parties and candidates themselves.
I call upon fellow countrymen,to pray for our lovely country especially in this era of un satisfaction.
Being in political parties has totally lost meaning,a reason  we call for action through extensive political approach to our party leaders.
I speak this just hours after the president of Uganda appoints his committee to run the commission. Already,most citizens have started to criticise it before it starts to deliver.....
I thank you.

Justice delayed is justice denied.

So,bwana kanyamunyu becomes the first suspect in the murder of bwana Akena.
Yes,the whole story is so confusing. Where was security team at game stores?
Obviously many sheikhs have been butchered like this. So why not defend himself?.
But I think possessing a gun requires special regularities. How did Kanyamunyu acquire a gun in any way? Is he part of the security team?
I hear the chief of Boda boda boys in the city possess a gun.why?
All this carcass must stop. This should be done as quick as possible because all Ugandans deserve a right to live.
RIP Akena.
I therefore thank all Ugandans whose heart and love for the country is always beyond imagination.
As Ugandans,we all need justice. Therefore, I appeal to all leaders especially our law makers to consider the views of our people.
I rest my case.
