Ugandans, their traumas and their dustbins

Of course we wish you all a great healing

One day at a time: Ugandans are a traumatised lot. We have been through a lot, sometimes one wonders how one country can process so much, yet find fun in everything. Ugandans will not fail to see the joke in everything. It is the way we cope with everything that tries us.

From the airport dilemmas to the iron sheet scandals, there is one thing that defines Ugandans – the ability to make fun of life, to not take it too seriously and above all, to joke about our traumas.

We have been traumatised a lot that sometimes, we are space shifting. Sometimes you do not know if you are still in Uganda or you are in some monarchy. In Uganda, you will find everything, everything you wish for, and everything you wish not!

And that is how dustbins come in. In this country, once you have used something, there is an urge to throw it away. Once the politicians have used the voters, they throw them away. And once the voters have used up their votes, they throw their hopes away. Everyone is using someone in this country. If you are not using someone, then you are being used. And that is how the idea of littering joins the fray.
