Mzee is missing a “Presidential Handshake” to maintain the Presidential Jet!

m7-presidential-jet

Long live the almighty President Yoweri Museveni, who can spoil his fellow cronies and mismanage funds in a splendid way that even his Presidential Jet is lacking funds. He is the only Executive and President who has this capacity and this arrogant ignorance to pull this one off without any consideration to the current state of the economy or the implications of where the funds has to be taken from. There are certain lack of fiscal policies and holding procedures as the constant scrutiny from Auditor General and other Government Officials are steady on the allocated funds used without supervision or proof. Therefore a Presidential Jet and Helicopter at the State House budget is not overwhelming, it is more of the same. Apparently, the maintenance of the Jet and Helicopter is underfunded and need to get money.

As the Parliament Watch so wonderfully stated today:

“State House is seeking for Shs 6.2 billion shillings to facilitate routine maintenance of the presidential jet and helicopter. State House Comptroller, Lucy Nakyobe, while presenting the institution’s budget for the 2017/2017 financial year before the Presidential Affairs committee on January 23, 2017, told legislators that the current budgetary estimates are meager to fund maintenance of the chopper and jet. Nakyobe presented the budget before the committee, in which under unfunded priorities, Shs 4.6 billion is provided by the Ministry of Finance, out of Shs 10.8 billion budgeted for by State House. Committee chairman, Fred Mwesigye acknowledged the need for money to maintain the presidential jet to be provided. “These machines must be properly maintained so we need to get the money,” Mwesigye said” (Parliament Watch Uganda, 24.01.2017).

Certainly, the President needs to shake his own hands and find the needed funds. Because there are apparently enough there to pay the cronies and “winner” of the Heritage Oil and Tullow Oil drilling tax case. Still, there is not enough to buy parts and fuel for the Presidential Jet. Which is ironic that it is about the same amount of monies that are spoiled on the Presidential Handshake. If the President was wise he would see this malfunction, but I think he rather take monies from a ghost-SACCO or ghost-NAADS than actually take the ill-given funds to his own Presidential Jet.

President Museveni surely would be reckless to take the funding from Health Care and allocations there, as the state of Ministry of Health is dwindling, not only with fires, but also with lacking medicine and procured machinery for their treatment. It is reasons why the rich and the elite fly abroad to salvage their health. Still, the State House really needs money for this plane, they do not want to be in charge when the Presidential Jet falls from the sky and the reason is a knock-off unit from a Ukraine Airplane instead of the real-deal fresh from the factory without any defects or even been used in 10 planes before.

We can surely see the headline: “Museveni dies in Plane Crash: Cheap parts for the wings are the reason for the crash”. First line of the article reads: ‘Let us wait for the black box to determine outcome of preliminary results of the crash-site, which is look after by the Police and Interpol’. That would be dangerous and misgiving that the lack of oversight was the reason for the technical deficiency because of his own Presidential Handshake. That the President are his own worst enemy, the sole reason and sole candidate for the lacking funds to his own airplane. Sounds like a bad movie, but still very real.

President Museveni has a Presidential Jet that lacks funds, that lacks maintenance and needs new fresh funds. Certainly all he needs is a Presidential Handshake! Peace.

Mzee defends his “Presidential Handshake”

“Do not malign the good people. You know i will defend them because I am the one who gave them the money. You are abusing them, I do not want to hear that anymore.” – President Yoweri Museveni (Daily Monitor, 19.01.2017)

We know by now that you are corrupt and keep your cronies satisfied with crony capitalism and loyal services rendered through paychecks instead of good governance and accountability. Since that has not mattered since 1986. What matters is loyalty to you first and then the knowledge that. That pays off!

They could be similar to Mother Theresa, Jesus and all the other good people, but it is the principal that they get a payout for serving their nation and their republic. That because the Republic won a case against a Petroleum and Oil Drilling Company, which justify the means of transactions to various accounts of different civil servants and leaders in government institutions. It is not abusing them; it is questioning the reason for the increased salary as an effort of awarding without practical procedure. That is what counts Mr. President.

I know it is a hard concept for you to grasp as you see the public coffers and taxes as free fund to salvage as much wealth as possible while you are breathing and leave behind as much property for the next generation of the clan of Museveni to live happily until oblivion. Therefore, a few extra shillings is a small bargain in the end.

I understand why you do not want to hear more about it, it makes you look like a fool. As a fool who allocated funds without proper procedure and spent unwise tax-money that in effect. It seems like a chaotic situation, where you are orders a cash-bonanza. A cash bonanza of free government funds ending up in the pockets of loyal cronies. These funds could been used on government institutions or payed ordinary civil servants salaries. Instead, they are inappropriately gave away to the fellow loyalist in disregard of the public. So I understand why you don’t want hear about that anymore, just like you are happy that people have forgotten about CHOGM monies and other sagas of theft from your administration. Because there are enough tales of maladministration and corrupt behaviour when your been in-charge of steering the wheels. It is well-known and common practice. What was not known before this was that the knowledge of “Presidential Handshake” as a common thing? Certainly, what was we could not know was that you sanctioned these handshakes and gave them away as a rewarding system to keep men and woman loyal to you?

So now matter who you gave this money too. The issue is not the people who got the money. They are “innocent” to a certain degree, but your act of doling the monies away with no regard of the citizens. That is the insulting part of your handshake. That the people have so little value compared to your highly paid elite. If you cannot see that issue, you cannot see anything, because that blinds your efforts and acts of accountability. Which is not something you have flexed since coming into power in the 1980s. Accountability and Transparency is two things you hate… we know it and so do you know very well. Peace.
