In 1986 when criminal despot Museveni took the power by the barrel of gun, he vowed to fix what he called an “economy that was marred by corruption.” However, 37 years later, the ruthless ruler has turned Ugandan economy into shambles owing to poor and ineffective policies.

The economy is in tatters. Any Ugandan would tell you today that Uganda’s economy is in tatters due to the institutionalized corruption, the cost of living has never been unbearable like today, while debts both foreign and domestic have been chocking citizens.

Uganda is hit by under/malnutrition. Thanks to tyrant corrupt Museveni, Uganda is among the countries in East Africa with high levels of undernutrition whereby about 29 percent or 3 in 10 children below 5 years of age are stunted while about 3 percent of all children below 5 years of age in Uganda are faced with body wasting.

Criminal dictator Museveni surpassed Uganda’s debt ceiling. Reports indicate that the old geezer who presides over a country in a whopping debt of over USS$ 20 Billion, other than imposing autocratic rule, perpetrating violations of human rights, he is still busy plundering state resources to enrich himself and his cabal, and more, in ways none of his predecessors ever did.

Commodity prices in Uganda have continued to soar. The price of fuel has hit the roof as well as unprecedented food inflation levels. For instance, wheat and millet are so scarce that people have replaced bread to plain cassava, sugar can only be afforded by the wealthier. Ugandans are yet to feel the full wrath of economic hardship, according to analysts.

A reminder that Uganda is a pariah state marred by gross corruption, failed education, dilapidated health systems, dilapidated infrastructure, dysfunctional public service, and sickening social welfare.

The only thing that can give despot Museveni hope to fix his economy and or servicing the loans is to be in DRC, Whence he forces himself there and commit all sorts of crimes against humanity under the guise of fighting terrorism, to plunder its national resources.
