You never say ‘bye’ while leaving a Ugandan party…

Just go…lest all the forces conspire against you.

Experience: When you are a young man, you are not sold to the theory of experience. As you grow older and less stupid (since it is harder to grow wiser), you begin to appreciate experience. You begin to realise that only age could have taught you something.

Who knew that there would be a time when all our degrees would expire? Who knew that the grounds would be levelled? It is like we are all playing this game of life, and someone just waves a magical wand; ‘start afresh’. Guess that is what we need as a country – a reboot. We need someone to restart us. We have over rigged each other; the best way is to declare amnesty for everyone, and we all start at zero. Just a reset! But then, as with all Ugandan problems, there is always something that pulses us every month. There is always something. If it is not bodyguards, it is the expired degrees, if not expired degrees, it is our lovely potholes. We hope June can bring better pulses.

Off to the more interesting things. When it comes to Ugandan parties, and everything around celebrations in Uganda, you never announce your exit. In Uganda, you just go off the scene. It is against the norms of a good party in Uganda for one to formally announce that they are leaving.
