An "atleast", thin though it may be.(24-5-2012)

 

Egypt is voting finally, the people are talking and well, here is what I think My Uganda should be thinking about the whole thing. One interesting aspect of it all is that the previous leader Mubarak and the leaders before him came into power so precariously and perilously that the people never gave any thought to who would rule next and how the country would be when a subsequent regime came into power. I think that goes for all the countries where they had an Arab-Spring (hey it rhymes with "uprising", who would have thought). For My Uganda , it seems the president is pushing for his thirty years in office, however, I would like to add an "atleast" to this, and that is: atleastMy Uganda has never at any point of all these close to thirty years under the president felt that he is here to stay. My Uganda has always had it in mind that the time will come when mister president will step down. This is an "atleast" that My Uganda can bear in mind when observing the Egyptians, an atleast that My Uganda may hold over them, thin though it may be, and may even build on it by preparing properly for when mister president eventually and gracefully relinquishes to My Uganda's subsequent recruit for the top job.
