The revelations by the COSASE committee of the the alleged incompetence, unqualified managers, extravagant carrier making the country lose 160 billion shillings a year in addition to risking peoples lives and phony purchases of planes is the saddest story todate!
Now that the CEO of the most prestigious Ugandan business is a school drop out till she presents her documents then I can imagine whether the engineers are not welders from Ntungamo or the mechanics are not from "kisseka market" of Mbarara city and the spare parts suppliers are not metal fabricators in Kabwohe.
I will be hard pressed to believe that fueling those very aircrafts which have cost Ugandans so much money is not done using diesel instead of jet fuel.
Watching a documentary on TV of a rescue operation of a plane crash in Chile the investigators reached a conclusion that the engineers on servicing a plane, replaced 2 original screws with duplicates from a Taiwan car parts manufacturer which could not withstand the strength required by an airline.
This led to the demise of 130 passengers!
Now that the CEO Bamuturaki is what she is , how about the Engineers, servicing experts and The mechanics ?
I remember when a Doctor recommended surgery of patient because the X-ray images were observing a cockroach in the lungs!
The patient being capable, decided to fly to better hospitals outside the country for better management.
On going through the pre surgery procedure the Xray was run again and the results were ,
The cockroach was in the Ugandan Xrays not in the lung of the patient!
Had the patient lacked capacity to go finance his medical trip , he would have been cut , to remove a non existing cockroach!
God forbid, one day the Uganda airlines will stop midair and come down reeling because someone from the street in Rushere or Mbarara, was given a lucrative job, because he knows how to work on milk coolers, to manage fueling of the planes.
The right thing now, if those in charge are interested in sharing 160 billion every year, just requisition through the people who gave you jobs without due diligence on your potential, and take the the money without risking people's lives.
As long as you spend your loot in Uganda, you will be okay and infact nobody will touch you.
Like Pinneti, Musenero and others before you nobody will touch you and mind you those who appoint you are the supreme judges in UGANDA.
The death of Rev. Kirinda changed our maternal family for the worst and forever.
The mistake of one incompetent person that day of October 17th 1988 should not be repeated for the same happened under the stewardship of NRM under dictator Museveni.
