THREE REASONS WHY BEING SINGLE THIS VALENTINES IS AWESOME You’ve just made it through the January lull and then all of a sudden Valentine’s Day sneaks up on you. If you’re single, it’s hard not to be jealous of all the loved-up couples that seem to be everywhere. But there’s no need to mope around eating ice cream on the sofa. Join us in celebrating the reasons why it’s AWESOME to be single on the international day of love.

1. Lack of love? Less costs

Like most days of giving Valentine’s Day is not cheap, with the UK public alone spending an estimated £880 million in 2012. However, it’s one of the few days in which it’s beneficial to be single. While our loved-up counterparts haemorrhage their hard-earned cash on heart-shaped balloons and overpriced floral arrangements, you can treat yourself to something you’d really like.

2. Freedom of choice

With a plethora of activities aimed at unattached revellers, a positive for singles is that we have the freedom to take control of our own night. With event organisers around the world clamouring to entice people to “singles events”, there’s nothing stopping us from taking advantage of fun “traffic light” and “anti-love” parties where partygoers are encouraged to be merry and use their freedom of choice to leave with whoever catches their eye (remember if you engage in a casual fling, be safe and smart. Use protection).

3. It’s Friday!

The best thing about Valentine’s Day this year is that it’s on a Friday. So there’s no excuse to be home alone this year. Round-up all of your single friends and embark on a single’s adventure. Go to a bar or club, have a dinner party, get your nails done. The fact is you can do whatever you want, you’re as free as a bird.

Today the number of people who have expressed an interest in the Millennium Development Goals is overwhelming. The MDGs are development goals identified and fronted by the United Nations [1] in September 2000(the beginning of a new millennium) that are intended to reduce extreme poverty and setting out a series of time-bound targets, with a deadline of 2015 which will probably will never be achieved because the year seems so near and there is still a lot to desire. I, like many people had not come to terms with this until last year in my First year at the Makerere University School of Law when for the Development Studies Coursework we were given the tiresome and partially traumatizing yet revealing task of visiting a slum of our choice, observe and later on write in relation to the possibility of achieving these goals. The situation was way worse than I had ever fathomed. In addition to poor infrastructure, our trip to Katanga was constantly punctuated with tales of frustrated young...

UGANDANS AND SEX TAPES AND THEIR INSISTENCE TO MOCK THE LOKODO AGENDA.

One of the traits majority of Ugandans have persisted to carry from time immemorial is the impressive ability to ignore the serious element of any law. If anything when laws are passed in Uganda, some folks look for the trivial or comic part of  the legislation, laugh it off and then cast bets on how long this would survive. So this is the attitude we flung to the ‘Helmets are mandatory’ and the ‘Wearing seat belts is compulsory’ legislation. And for years we lived in our easy law mockery life with all these rules and laws not existing for long. Then alas Mzee Museveni our President made an appointment. I know Ugandans who laughed at this too and thought this was the same old story…same people in different clothes. This iron lady from the Revenue Authority was a no nonsense lawyer who had come to clean up the city as its new Executive Director. It is still thanks to Jeniffer Musisi that most Ugandans had learnt that when the law states something, doing the reverse has repercussion...

AFRICAN DRAMA TELEVISION SERIES….a new rising era

-

A few years ago, you would never find any self respecting television fan confiding in anyone that one of the shows that they were ardent fans and viewers of was one that was written, conceived, acted, produced and acted in the cradle of life (read Africa)….an African Television show was another name for low quality, poor props, boring characters and predictable plots and storylines. There was no African show that would get anyone interested enough to feel the suspense that the show team intended them to feel. Even when the show’s villains were plotting on kidnapping and murdering the protagonist, it was not scary at all and even if one was to be that poor ill fated protagonist, there would be no need to worry. However in the Southern part of the continent, the members in their television industry had already decided to tread these seemingly untradeable waters and soon mastered the art. Luckily for the industry, these past months have seen many African drama series cropping up and yes,...
