Pathetic!

Jun 24, 2007

SIR — I assume many Ugandans read the Kampala mayor’s speech at Rio Dinner. It is pathetic if to date Mr Sebaggala does not have advisers or just refuses to be advised about the length and wording of his speeches. A mayor of a capital city mercilessly destroying English!

Yes, it may not be his fault but since he also knows his problem, I suggest that he be precise and use few words. Let him write his speech, rehearse it and speak like a mayor. Whoever is in charge of his speeches must ensure that he begins rehearsing his CHOGM speech now so that it can be understood in November. Let it not be the same story!
