DESREE Barlow, chairperson and founder, Broadcast Forum and Desert Island Discs presenter, might appear to be an ambitious young woman but her drive has limits.

From the corridors of State House are whispers that Barlow could have declined an offer by the president to replace Frank Tumwebaze as special presidential assistant on media and research in September.

Apparently, I’m informed, she did not want to compromise her work with the forum. How noble.
