Thought & Ideas
This sounds strange and embarrassing

Sources say that since the death of Brig. Noble Mayombo, who was investigating the matter, no other officer has so far been substantively assigned by the government to continue from where the late Mayombo had left off, if at all.
But there are also other reports that government may have been satisfied with the earlier joint experts' report which concluded that the helicopter indeed crashed.

Buganda land racket unveiled
This might come as sad news to the people who have been behind the racket to rip off Kabaka's of Buganda of assorted properties, including land.
We have got it on a high authority that the racket, involving some local council officials and some known tycoons in the city thought they could quietly continue selling off kingdom land to unsuspecting members of the public. The racket, however, has been exposed in the ongoing exercise of registration of all the tenants on Kabaka's land in order to qualify them as legitimate tenants by issuing them with certificates of occupancy.
Mengo leaders had tasked KK Land and Property Management Company limited during the reign of the then famous Buganda Katikkiro Daniel Muliika to do the investigation. When the situation permits, soon, we shall give you the names of the landgrabbers.
Cadres at White Hall
If you are a politician, previously holding the title of Member of Parliament, but was unfortunate in the last poll, despair no more - especially if you have sympathies for the ruling party.
A new list for RDCs and possible appointees in the public service is being drafted by the powers that be. And so if you were in the 7th Parliament and voted aye for the lifting of presidential term limits, you could soon be the proud holder of an office in the local government area, even at Kampala City Council, giving "technical advice".
It is reported that the President will be receiving all sorts of recommendations from the Public Service Commission in light of the damaging revelations about certain employees at White Hall that have come to light during investigations carried out by the Parliamentary Local Government Committee.
Officials with questionable record and who were once interdicted by former Town Clerk Gordon Mwesigye but are still serving may be among those who will be making way for the NRM cadres. If it comes to pass this will be the first fulfilment of the recent Kyankwanzi resolution to stuff the civil service with cadres.
