Woke up today morning in one of the Ugandan suburbs and when I turned on my TV set I was surprised that CNN (International news network) had something to say about my country.
I found it really sad that the gay people were getting more love than half of the country’s population that’s starving due to lack of food, shelter and all the basic life necessities.
All that got me into thinking about when the world is going to let Africa make its decisions. Every time Africa does something, the world always has something to say yet whenever they make their decisions we don’t say a thing.
Personally I don’t judge gay people but I wonder if the people who are saying “shame on Uganda” really know what happens in this small African country that we in.
There are many stories of young boys in Uganda who’ve been sexually abused in single secondary schools. It’s so bad that some of them have to wear diapers to be able to hold their s**t and the world doesn’t care about them.
People outside should stop talking about Africa like they really know what’s going on down here, Africa is a country where a young girl of say 15years has to wakeup very early in the morning at about 5am and move a long distance to go fetch water from the well (water source) and carry over 40 liters of water up the hill to her home, after all that she has to walk another long distance to go to school with nothing to eat for the school break (though at times they carry leftovers from dinner).
Why am saying all that? My main point in all that I’ve been saying is that someone who hasn’t been in the low or middle class of Africa(Uganda in particular) doesn’t really know what happens down here and should try to stay out (Not trying to be rude, just being real).
Am neither a gay or anti-gay supporter but I think the Ugandan people should make their own decisions.
