I beg to differ, but i believe i am reading the right thing here. Just before they decide to integrate the three East Africa countries into one massive political federation for their own good, we have to understand what is all there for our demagogues to pursue with closed eyes.
For now, I am sparing Tanzanians knowing too well that they might not fall to this trick. They have some national pride which i can only envy. By the way, their new president has proven to be a real democrat only in his third month in power. If there is a lesson to learn from that charismatic and wise leader, it is the fact that a president has the mandate of safeguarding and protecting his country in his hands. The mandate of protecting the country's ancestral pride, and the mandate of protecting the future generations and the pride there in.
I feel hurt deep down my heart every time i read that the Ugandan president is pursuing a blind pursuit of creating a political federation in East Africa. Who wants such a federation by the way? Call me naive and what have you but it is painful that the guy will even rig an election to achieve a feeling of Pan-Africanism! What a pittance, i feel.
And just as if reading from the same script, President Kibaki of Kenya has allowed the country to go back to the old dog years. Corruption is at its peak and things are getting worse with each new dawn. In Uganda, it is almost the same with each day. So in the two presidents, we are seeing a popular replay of a famous song that used to hit in the late 90's, something like same script but different casts!

Holy sweet heavens! This is one BIG SHAME for the East Africa, ain't it?
