Journalist Eddie Nkulukenzire, who worked many years in Rwanda at state broadcaster, is the new King of Tooro in Uganda. The Tooro Kingdom's Babiito Clan succession committee has elected him, as Prince Edward Rukidi Kijanangoma to be the Omukama (King). He relocated back to Uganda from Rwanda some time back, and had also been working at the state broadcaster as UBC News Tonight anchor. He is son of the late Prince Kijanangoma and grandson of Omukama Rukidi III. He succeeds the late Omukama Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV who died last week.

Taxi theft alert! I boarded a taxi from Kisasi to Busega today. At Bwaise, the conductor and others made me get off. Shortly after, I realized my laptop and work phone were missing. I strongly suspect I was robbed in that taxi. RT to help me recover my items.

The @Bad_Natives_Pod may want to issue some corrections. Your guest, @AndrewMwenda, mixed up a lot of facts about my engagement with the Stephen Nuwagaba case in this episode. -Stephen was a client who approached us at @chapterfourug claiming he was a victim/survivor of torture. He had visible marks of torture on his feet, elbow, and soles of his feet. He walked with a limp. -Owing to limited documentation of his claim, we were hesitant to pursue civil remedy for his case. We instead sought to have his claims investigated for a criminal remedy against those he accused of perpetrating torture against him. -We approached CID HQ in Kibuli to report a case of torture. -CID advised us to file the case with the institution concerned. We reported the case to the Deputy Commandant of CMI of our own accord, not Mwenda’s. -The Deputy CMI boss, Rugumayo, and officer Frank Nyakairu investigated the claims and found them credible. They arrested the CMI officer who committed the acts of torture but were dillydallying on the issue of the return of Stephen's property. -It was here that Stephen asked to be introduced to Saleh. I sent Saleh an email narrating the claims of torture and asked him to help in investigating it since it involved security officials. I never met Saleh but exchanged emails a few times about the case. -Here we tried also to meet the CMI boss. We failed many times. He did not return my calls or reply to our messages on his personal cell. - On the advice of known colleagues, we then approached Andrew Mwenda, a close friend, kinsman and confidant of Birungi, the CMI henchman at the time. -On Andrew’s cell, I spoke to Birungi. I never met Birungi and do not know what he looks like in person. I later learned that Stephen met Birungi, who I am told compensated him, returned his property (phones and laptops), and issued him a passport. That is where our engagement with the case ended. @cobbo3 @rkabushenga youtu.be/8tD8ddSEXFU?is=0KHv…

Yesterday, a senior management official at @UBAGroup reached out to me regarding my views on the treatment of the young woman in UBA’s Graduate Management Accelerated Programme (GMAP) who addressed @TonyOElumelu by his first name. I made it clear that, in my view, this was not a “culture clash”; it was a class war, a reflection of the deeply entrenched hierarchy and class consciousness that too often determines who is considered entitled to demand deference and who is expected to provide it. I gave a simple example, if Tony @TonyOElumelu son or daughter addressed the family gateman or driver by his first name, hardly any Nigerian would bat an eyelid. In fact, many of the same people outraged by this young woman calling him “Tony” would probably expect the gateman or driver to address Elumelu’s children with exaggerated deference. That tells you immediately that this argument is not really about “African culture” or respect. It is about class, status, wealth and power, about who society permits to speak casually to whom. More importantly, I specifically requested that, given the enormous public opprobrium, ridicule, and attacks this young woman has been subjected to, UBA must immediately provide her with appropriate psychosocial support. Whatever anyone thinks about how she addressed @TonyOElumelu, no young employee or trainee should be left alone to absorb the psychological consequences of suddenly becoming the target of a massive public controversy. She should not be sacrificed on the altar of corporate hierarchy or social-media outrage. Her dignity, welfare and mental well-being must come first. Let the poor breathe!
