After President Museveni ‘created’ Banyarwanda ruling tribe, he embarked on virulent ethnic balkanisation of Uganda
Already, every sphere of human life and activity is now effectively dominated by people who belong to the ethnic group dominating power in Uganda. This is not surprising. During his long reign in Uganda, the president has made sure that power does not get out of his hands, or out of his family and ethnic group.

Doctors tell of how governments and Big Pharma reduced medics to bystanders as drugs makers raked in ‘insane’ profits

It’s easier for me to come on camera maybe and say some things like this because I am an independent practitioner now. If you don’t have your [own] practice, then you really can’t help people. And I think that is where a lot of [practitioners’] fear comes from, the fear of not being employed.”
