WHEN asked whether he preferred Republicans to Democrats, a renown US musician answered; â€œMan, itâ€™s like you are asking me choose between fried ****t and boiled ****t. All politics stinks man.â€

Can anyone spot the difference between FDC (Failed Destroyers Corp), NRM (No Room for Manoeuvre) and all the rest of the parties in this land? There will be no drastic change for the better in this land because all politicians come from the same pool of Ugandan history.

Here is my solution: Every single person or group that has EVER been involved in the Uganda government or Parliament since 1962 should step aside or be shoved aside (take your pick).

You have failed this country miserably. In fact, many of you are worse than the colonialists. At least back then, Africans knew who the enemy was. Now we arenâ€™t sure anymore as itâ€™s pure hypocrisy and gluttony all over the land.
Letâ€™s lease Uganda to the Norwegians (or Finns for that matter) to run together with the UPDF for two years.

Before you start crucifying me, remember I am a Rasta â€˜elderâ€™ in Uganda so I know a lot about Pan Africanism. Arenâ€™t you tired of politicians hiding behind this Pan Africanism guise? After the two years of transition, there will be a rennaisance of youth running things in Uganda. You may argue all you want, but roads, health sector, farming etc. will all improve drastically under the guidance of the lease holders.

The following may or may not be interested, but I think they have what it takes to lead this nation into a new era: Ndema Rukandema, Aggrey Kagonyera, Phillip Besiimire, Charlie Lubega, Elvis Sekyanzi, Aga Sekalala, Dr. Mrs Sekalala, Baker Magunda, Sandor Walusimbi, Gerald Owachi, George Mawadri, Uncle Mitch, Robert Kabushenga, Peter Kagwa, Hans Paulsen, Dr Aliker Jr, Anne Sebagereka, Dr Gladys Kalema, Andrew Kasirye, Allan Shonubi, Kiryowa Kiwanuka, Richard Byarugaba, Mark Ssali, Andrew Rugasira, Peter Sematimba, Oscar Baitwa, Jeff Baitwa, Jimmy Kiberu, Muhoozi Kainerugaba (fill in your suggestions man).

There is actually a huge pool of talented youth in this country. What do you say old timers â€” and I ain't referring to age only? Time to step aside? We shall look after you as pensioners and people who played their part, don't you worry.

George Weah has shown us that we can get rid of these relics of â€˜Independenceâ€™. Africa is crying out. Arenâ€™t you tired of this revolving door of politics and foolishness?
