Woke up this morning with 2 bad news. My neighbour told me that my dogs were found loitering around my house 3 days ago. This morning we discovered that there is a hole in my fence. It seems more likely that someone is trying to cut through the fence to enter. Last 2 years, staying at this present home, we did not encounter any happenings. Ever since our neighbours started to build their houses, we got one of our metal gate stolen, and now a hole along the fence. I guess we have to be more vigilant from now.
Hole discovered along my compound fence.
Prices are ever increasing. My landlord just told me that we have to review our rent. One reason why is that there are some well funded NGOs coming to Uganda and offer high ridiculous price to house owners so that they can choose their stay. I have even heard that some literally told the landlord to chase the current tenant away by doubling the existing rent. The NGOs economy is disrupting the true economy. Why? Coz its not their hard earned money. Sometimes I really wonder are they doing a service or a disservice to Africa by giving them false hope. Ballooning the economy will be very detrimental to Uganda. Once the bubbles burst or the NGOs leaves, those that are sincere in making this a better place for Ugandans will be left with a hard time mending the holes left behind by them. What a short sighted way of eradicating poverty.
