The Ugandan psyche, Ray G and Princess Katrina

This threesome of psyches is where everything is crashing

CRASHING: In one Uganda, someone has just completed a trip from Netherlands, in another Uganda, someone is wishing for their first moment at CJs. You see, different music, different slogans, different language. We are all prisoners of the psyche. And perhaps the problems of Uganda boil down to the intersection of these three psyches.

I once wrote about the two Ugandas; the uptown side, where everything works just fine, and the downtown Uganda, where everything is falling apart. But then that intelligent dude, Trevor Mukholi found a cooler way to segment these Ugandas. He says there is Uganda A, Uganda B and Uganda C.

Mbu somewhere in Uganda B, people are still dangling their corporate IDs, while people in Uganda C are flexing about the mukene price. Mbu there is also a marriage of convenience between Uganda B and Uganda C. Perhaps because many of those in Uganda B have just escaped from Uganda C and there is possibility of falling back.

This Mukholi theory of the three Ugandas got me thinking more about the Ugandan psyches. Could it be that the psyches of the three Ugandas are totally different? That different things go into those psyches. In one Uganda, someone has just completed a trip from Netherlands, in another Uganda, someone is wishing for their first moment at CJs. You see, different music, different slogans, different language. We are all prisoners of the psyche. And perhaps the problems of Uganda boil down to the intersection of these three psyches. This threesome of psyches is where everything is crashing. The three Ugandas are crashing into each other and it is a disaster.

Whereas one Uganda will see the Ray G concert as a win in diversity, another Uganda thinks the West is out to take over the West. Another Uganda will argue that someone ferried in people, while another Uganda sees a young artiste doing his best to add a brick to Ugandan excellence. People it is back to the psyche.
