While Ugandans are frustrated with the thought of inflation and projected famine, it’s ambiguous to say that Parliament approved and released estimated 2.4b to procure brand new Mercedes-Benz worth $500,000 for Speaker Rt. Hon. Anita Among and her deputy Thomas Tayebwa.
Much as it is provided for in the Constitution, Ugandans do not only contend the price but also the timing, with the increasing recession. Was it humane, fair to procure now and not later while the economy suffers?
Ordinary Ugandans are baffled, disappointed and frustrated by inhumane nature of the Parliament they voted.
Others wonder where the government official vehicles used by the former Speaker and duty are…and if disposed off, is it economically wise for Ugandans to purchase govt vehicles for her elected officials for every new Parliament?
Yes…one would wonder.
