Debunking Lies: The Heterosexual Family is under threat from Homosexuals in Uganda.

Sunday Morning.

Seems as if the long couple of weeks celebrating Christmas and New Year's has taken its toll. Just don’t want to go out again. Don’t want to see another beer. Don’t want to go dancing again.

But, I will. Today is the last of the days of fun. Then, back to work, and looking for school fees, and all the small tiny things in life that disturb. And, of course, I will be prepared for the new missives from those who have been pushing for the Bahati, Anti-Homosexuality Bill. (text here) They are quite determined that it passes. And, I am quite determined to make them pay a price for that.

I don’t know how true this is…! But, it seems we gay Ugandans are asking the Ugandan State House to appoint a Gay envoy. Concerned with all issues gay in Uganda. I should apply for the job… But, the names of Bahati and Nsaba Buturo have been whispered. They seem to have the requisite experience. The President has more than 70 advisers, different from the 74 ministers who make up the cabinet. No. We are not as rich as Europe or the US. I know. Our cabinet is bigger…!

There is a must read article here.

It is pure common sense. Undiluted by flares of shouts and shoots. Of course, it is the kind of commonsense that Nsaba-Buturo and Ssempa lack to a very high degree. But, I don’t think you, my reader, can fail to understand this. I am titling it

Debunking Lies; The Heterosexual Family is under threat from Homosexuals in Uganda.

Ugandan MP David Bahati of Ndorwa West and Minister for Integrity Nsamba Buturo have over the past four weeks misled Ugandans and the international community about the state of homosexuality in Uganda.

Bahati, author of an anti-gay bill in parliament, believes family life in Uganda is so threatened by homosexuality that those practicing it should face death. Bahati also proposes up to life in prison and extra-judicial powers to prosecute any Ugandan involved in homosexuality even if they’re from abroad. ..... 

The argument that family life is under threat by homosexuality is baseless. Uganda has strong family foundations based on heterosexuality. Last year alone, 1.3 million Ugandans were born as a result of man-woman relations. The current population of 31 million will double by 2030 and hit 90 million by 2050, according to the government’s own statistics.

The average Ugandan woman is having on average 7 children and in most cases with the same man. Record numbers of couples are getting married each year.

Based on the above statistics gays and lesbians are nowhere near to taking control of the country. In fact heterosexuals should be challenging gays with the ‘Catch us if you can’ attitude. Besides, we have not imported gays and lesbians as Buturo seems to suggest. They are members of our families so how can they threaten us?

The whole article is worth reading. For a Ugandan, it is a must read. Come on guys, let us go back to simple common sense. We are shaming our Country. Frankly, that seems to irk me more than the fact that these guys want to kill me. You are shaming my country. You are shaming Uganda.

Michael Ssenyonjo, I salute you sir.

There is more fun, in the article. The guy brings us some facts and figures from the chief sponsor of the bill, MP David Bahati. This is hilarious. This is the guy who would like to kill me, because I am a homosexual. This is the guy who insists that life in prison is not good enough for me, because I am a homosexual. Here is the constituency he represents.

Now let’s focus on the author of the bill, MP David Bahati and his constituency of Ndorwa West. Ndorwa West hasn’t a single gay or lesbian person that David can point at. But it has under-the-tree classrooms, health centers without doctors, nurses and medicines. The majority or women have their babies in bushes. Poverty is 60% among the population. Many have migrated to neighboring Bunyoro. Once called the Switzerland of Africa, southwest Uganda is warming up fast and becoming arid because of overpopulation and poor farming conditions.

 

Surprisingly the desperation of poor people in Ndorwa West doesn’t count to an MP who was elected by 90% of the population in his constituency so he can solve their problems. Having got into

parliament, he instead decided to follow the fanatical and hate agenda of rightwing religious extremists in America, a trend matching an assessment of MPs performance by the Africa Leadership Institute.

While Bahati scored A and C in the plenary and committee assignments respectively, he only managed an E when it came to work in his own constituency. This rating (2007/08) was just a level before the worst (F) despite having a locality office with an assistant paid for by the taxpayer. MP Bahati failed to account for how he spent his Constituency Development Fund altogether!

Shame on you, MP Bahati. Ndorwa West is the constituent you represent? And, this is how you represent it? These are the kind of bills that you are introducing? Shame on you sir.

And, I am officially inviting you to tell us the untruths that Michael Ssenyonjo has written in this article about Ndorwa West, the Constituency you represent in the 8^th Parliament of the Republic of Uganda. Shame upon you, sir!

No, I don’t need to continue this post much more. It will be too long.

Lets first debunk that lie. That the Heterosexual Family in Uganda is under threat by the Gay Ugandan, why, these facts and figures have been in the Ugandan papers in 2009. I know they are facts. Just go ahead and prove them wrong. If you can.

Uganda has strong family foundations based on heterosexuality. Last year alone, 1.3 million Ugandans were born as a result of man-woman relations. The current population of 31 million will double by 2030 and hit 90 million by 2050, according to the government’s own statistics.

The average Ugandan woman is having on average 7 children and in most cases with the same man. Record numbers of couples are getting married each year.

Based on the above statistics gays and lesbians are nowhere near to taking control of the country.

PS, soon as I post it, I am sending a note to Honourable Bahati. And, Benson Obua Ogwal. Also, Minister Nsaba-Buturo of course. They must defend the slander in this article. I am continuing to play with fire. Soon, I will draw back, with some burns. But, they are members of the Parliament of Uganda, and, the bill is under discussion, isnt it? Here is input I believe they should not miss.
