SAGGY'S CRAZY WORLD | Harry Sagara
When Ragga Dee sang about the ballisticness of the letter 'O', everyone jumped to the floor. Unfortunately for me I don't feel you guys. I think there's a more ballistic letter in the alphabet, the letter 'K'.
How does one comprehend the fact that the letter 'K' is associated with most absurdities that I know of? Do you doubt this? Now listen. Most places that have been struck by or associated with terror start with this letter, let's count: Kosovo, Kandahar, Kabbalar, Kisangani, Koondoose to name a few.
The most prominent leaders in the Great Lakes Region are Kaguta, Kagame, Kabila, Kibaki, Kikwete and the three most heard of capital cities in the Great Lakes Region are Kampala, Kigali and Kinshasha. We are not yet done.
When the ADF rebels attacked western Uganda, they started in Kasese, they killed chaps at Kichwamba in Kabarole and ran into the Congo where the UPDF led by Kazini pursued them up to Kisangani and they (UPDF) ended up clashing with Rwandese forces led by Kabarebe and Kayumba (Nyamwasa).
More recently, there was a shake up at the government newspaper when the board chaired by Noble Mayombo appointed Kabushenga as the Kanyama of the Ko...oops I mean corporation.
Sometime back, the Daily Monitor editors spent time in the dock for publishing a picture that had a woman being shaved by alleged UPDF soldiers.
The icing on this episode was that the chap who was allegedly felling the trees in her mabira was called Kisale - which for good measure translates into "cut it".
This letter 'K' never stops, the global fund scandal was all ridden with this letter.
All those guys who appeared before justice Ogola were being roasted for misappropriating Ks (money) that were supposed to fight malaria, measles and Aids.
During the 2001 elections, the most rubble rousing candidates names were Kamana (Bubulo west) and Kafumisi (Kyadondo East).
Unfortunately, the former sailed through to parliament and the latter failed to penetrate the house!
Have you ever asked yourself why all the slums start with this letter?
Seriously could someone explain to me why we have Kivulu, Kisenyi, Kifumbira, Kinawataka, Kalerwe, Katanga and in Kenya, Kibera and Kayaba? Could these slums have changed for the better if it was not for the letter K?
At this rate, I am wondering what kind of person I would be if I were called Kisagara from Knebbi.
I would be President and Knebbi would be the capital city!
Before I run, my MD at the Daily Monitor is called Konrad, and the outgoing CEO is called Kiboro and part of his responsibility is Kfm.
My supervisor is Lilliane Barenzi, given her size and how delicate she is I could easily say Ka Barenzi but she's standing right behind me brandishing a shoe in her hand so I rest my Kase!
