Uganda is becoming less and less of a one-party state and is in fact an authoritarian dictatorship, which Museveni keeps up with rigged elections and false prophecies for the “Bright future of Uganda”, most of the money intended to be used for these purposes had instead flowed into his own pockets, gaslighting the population into thinking changes have been made. I’ve been living outside of Uganda for about 23 years, and have every year seen the decline of democracy in the country. I hope the message reaches the wiki editors, and face the situation that is going on in my home country, where most of my family reside.

at the end of the science and technology section is the figure "US$70". Based on the context, I'm guessing the correct number is 70 million [[User:ManlyMatt|ManlyMatt]] ([[User talk:ManlyMatt|talk]]) 11:13, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

Revision as of 13:51, 15 May 2024

Poverty (HIV in Uganda)

As a result, young women tend to have older and more sexually experienced partners and this puts women at a disproportionate risk of getting affected by HIV, accounting for about 57 per cent of all adults living with HIV in Uganda.[124] → The figure in this sentence is gravely wrong. From the original reference, it is 5.7 per cent, not 57 per cent.

Museveni and the Authoritarian Regime

Uganda is becoming less and less of a one-party state and is in fact an authoritarian dictatorship, which Museveni keeps up with rigged elections and false prophecies for the “Bright future of Uganda”, most of the money intended to be used for these purposes had instead flowed into his own pockets, gaslighting the population into thinking changes have been made. I’ve been living outside of Uganda for about 23 years, and have every year seen the decline of democracy in the country. I hope the message reaches the wiki editors, and face the situation that is going on in my home country, where most of my family reside. Ugatp (talk) 21:16, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For my own safety I am using an anonymous IP. Ugatp (talk) 21:18, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
