Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uganda is one of the most fascinating countries in Africa. Situated in the middle of the Great Lakes region of Eastern Africa, it is home to diverse flora and fauna. Little wonder Winston Churchill famously named it “the Pearl of Africa”. Neighbored by South Sudan, DRC, Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda, Uganda claims the source of the River Nile and a larger share of Victoria, Africa’s largest lake. Uganda’s capital, Kampala is famous for hosting many international conferences and summits including the 2007 Commonwealth Head of Government Meeting. Uganda is witnessing rapid development, overseen by Yoweri Tibuhaburwa Museveni who has served as president since 1986, making him the longest serving leader in Uganda. Museveni came to power on the backdrop of a 5-year guerilla struggle that toppled the regimes of Milton Obote and the military junta of Tito Okello Lutwa. Historical Dictionary of Uganda, Second Edition, covers the history of Uganda using a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, and a bibliography. The dictionary section covers many entries on politics, economy, foreign affairs, religion, society, culture, and important personalities. The book provides a quick access for researchers, students, tourists, and anyone interesting in learning about Uganda.

Download or read book Religiosity on University Campuses in Africa written by Abdoulaye Sounaye and published by LIT Verlag. This book was released on 2023-08-29 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines religiosity on university campuses in Sub-Saharan Africa. Focusing on both individuals and organized groups, the contributions open a window onto how religion becomes a factor, affects social interactions, is experienced and mobilized by various actors. It brings together case studies from various disciplinary backgrounds (anthropology, sociology, history, religious studies, literature) and theoretical orientations to illustrate the significance of religiosity in recent developments on university campuses. It pays a particular attention to religion-informed activism and contributes a fresh analysis of processes that are shaping both the experience of being student and the university campus as a moral space. Last but not least, it sheds light onto the ways in which the campus becomes a site of a reformulation of both religiosity and sociality.

Download or read book Why Regional Tier Form of Decentralization Governance s Implementation Is a Preliquist for Uganda s Better Service Delivery of 21st Century written by Deo Rwangoga and published by Exceller Books. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book looks at Decentralization governance of president Museveni era, that was registered in Uganda of the local government status(1987),resistance councils status(1993), as well as into the 1995 constitution, operationalized by the local government act(1997) that devolved legislative, fiscal planning & budgeting functions to districts ,Municipal councils, as well as their lower tier levels, whose idea was to involve the people in a way they were governed, the dream that have not been achieved looking at what the cries of people are as expressed in all sectors. This book analyses Decentralization from 1997 to 2019, and deduces that the first phrase of it (10 years), that is up to 2005, was a success that time the district were 69 in number, but beyond that time it was not at all, and up to now as it is continuously becoming harder to manage, those very many administrative units that jumped from just 39 districts in 1991 to 134 Districts in 2020, as well as municipalities created alongside districts , that now stand at 41(2018), all , contributing to formation of a Member of Parliament that total to 459 MPs(2018). All this has led Uganda to have a very poor governance system, as even primary sectors of health, education, agriculture and economy are in a dilemma state, leave alone local revenue collections that are directed from source to Centre before expenditure and the districts have to request back to do any activity, including emergencies like garbage management, repairs and salaries, making services delivery impossible to be efficient and effective in all ways at these levels. The book is based on secondary data that, reported on governance issues of the day as written in Ugandan media that were people’s feelings as issues of the time as well some Journals, observations and interviews. The book introduces decentralization &governance of Uganda, identifies current state of affairs of service delivery, presents why there was need for many new administrative units, and their state now, looks at history of parliament, feudalism, identifies lost pride of Ugandans ,proposes what regional tier governance can address as well as linking the past with today’s Ugandan governance. Finally the book proposes prerequisite regional tier power centres relevant to today’s Uganda and concludes with models that can help us achieve vision 2040 and therefore proposes immediate need to implement regional tier governance that will establish all three arms of government at regional centres of Uganda, remember it was agreed to be implemented by those that deemed it under article, 178(3). It is apparent that all regions should therefore implement it as a solution to service delivery that is very poor now.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each nation has its heroes and its villains. And whatever Historians may convey about either, it only becomes meaningful to a people when it is told by their own; because, only they truly value and aspire to uphold and to protect their heritage. A people, any people stand to prescribe their own extinction once they choose to neglect their heritage. The Author of Guardian Angel, probes and fathoms this subject, challenging the conscience of a people over their heritage...the ups and downs which reflect man's aspirations through...not just one or two or even three generations but ever; because in life nothing stands still; life is an endless cycle of happiness and sadness; success and failure; nobility and improbity. The perennial constant in all this is integrity in fortitude! Possessing or not possessing it identifies us with our Maker within our heritage.
