Nostslgic - missing the old site, seriously. Was able to get more information, old news and more news categories. Only thing I like about the new site is the video addition and pictures on every story. Also, one gets distracted from Monitor by the other Nation group papers..."Ugandaness" - the signature of Monitor - seems to vanish. So yes, good to update the technology and presentation - but at what information and accessibility cost?

to hell with gays, this is not gay country. even in america, only 4 states have legalised homosexuality. to be sincere, this is an evil act. may GOD protect uganda, because we are under threat of cuntural degeneration.

even if you view homosexuality as a disease or mental problem, please be compassionate to these people. these people are not hurting you, and didn't choose to be different.

do you think all handicapped people deserve to be banished from Uganda? should all people without two legs be treated badly because they are different? it's the same thing.

... See Moreit is okay to follow your own beliefs, but leave others alone if they are not hurting you. there are many gay people living in Uganda, whether you know who they are or not. maybe some of your friends are gay without you even knowing it. when you curse gay people and say they don't belong in their own country, that is just cruel and unneccesary.

@Mutetsi - your question "what is so sacred about hetrosexual sex? what is so 'right' about sex between a man and a woman?" is a shadow cast by that which we do not see and as such is not only the wrong question to ask in propping up your aurgument but reflects a fundamental misunderstanding - and consequently misuse or abuse - of the sexual act. And therein is the problem.

Even before we can exhale on this one, Budiope county MP, Henry Balikoowa (RIP) dies in a car accident...The Ugandan government is committing genocide on the roads by systemic crimes of omissions that continues to result in such unnecessary and completely avoidable loss of life! While I sympathize for his loss, VP should stop his public mourning - ...

@Malayi - the technical and logistical capacity of our forensic pathologists is more than sufficient to resolve and provide answers for all our situations. Crime in Uganda is not yet THAT sophisticated, but we'll get there if not cubbed. The problem though is - again - our forensic pathologists are grossly underpaid civil servants and as such are compromised by the same system failures that undermine the national institutions.

@Kasamba - I couldnt agree more with your observations and submissons...Ugandan men are very very very very poorly skilled when it comes to their collective social responsibility towards women. Take a moment to check - as an example - how many laws in the country are laid out to specifically protect women as women? Even the few that are there, how... See More many women have access to use and application of those few laws? How many times have Ugandan men held their fellow men accountable for violation of women/children? Tere are a few exceptional ones - very rare - but sadly, Ugandan men -generally -are a very sad case of abscodment of duties...and what is amazing is most dont even know it because the generations that birthed them havent shown them different.

The problem is we don't have a body set aside on its own to regulate the standards of Universities in the country. We have had so many substandard Universities - mostly private Universities, where even the basic amenities and requisistes are lacking. In most developed countries, Universities are regulated by a council or a University grants ... See Morecommission and most Universities have affiliated colleges in order to accomodate the large number of students yet at the same time maintaining the high quality education. What we have in Uganda are "Tom, Dick and Harry" Universities in all corners of the country and each with their own syllabuses that may not be reviewed by an independent body or regualrly revised to meet the ever changing industrial requirements and standards. We need to emulate the west and learn from them if we want to move forward.
