Uganda’s third phase of Digital Registration Number Plates is nothing more than a cold-blooded robbery by Museveni’s parasitic regime. Beneath the pretense of “modernization” and “efficiency” lies a diabolical plot to bleed Ugandans dry while enriching the dictator’s cronies. This scandalous ploy reeks of greed, incompetence, and blatant disregard for the suffering masses.
The price of UGX 714,300 per plate is not just absurd—it’s a brazen slap in the face of millions living in abject poverty. For a regime that has presided over the collapse of the economy, skyrocketing unemployment, and rotting infrastructure, demanding such an obscene amount from already impoverished citizens is nothing short of criminal. Who benefits from this extortion? Not the struggling Ugandan hustling to make ends meet, but Museveni’s inner circle of thieves—politically connected companies like Joint Stock Company Global Security and Virtuous Global Security Company. These shameless leeches, handpicked to exploit the people, are raking in millions while offering nothing in return.
The so-called “two-tier system” only underscores the depth of corruption. Group One caters to the untouchable elites who waltz in with vehicles cleared at ports like Mombasa and Dar es Salaam. These fat cats, already swimming in ill-gotten wealth, are handed privileges on a silver platter. Meanwhile, Group Two—the ordinary Ugandan forced to deal with bonded warehouses—faces the same extortionate fees, despite being battered by Museveni’s economic failures. This isn’t modernization; it’s daylight robbery disguised as policy.
The Ministry of Works and Transport, a cesspool of incompetence, now has the audacity to preach modernization while its roads remain death traps and public transport is a chaotic mess. How dare this shameless ministry demand more money from citizens when it has failed to deliver even the most basic services? Their promises are as hollow as the dictator’s speeches—cheap lies meant to pacify the masses while the looting continues unabated.
The so-called “online booking system” is another insult to the intelligence of Ugandans. In a country plagued by erratic internet connectivity and nightmarish bureaucracy, this is nothing more than a cruel joke. Citizens are herded into a labyrinth of inefficiency, wasting precious time and resources, only to be met with frustration. And where does the money go? Into the bottomless pockets of Museveni’s cronies, who have turned government coffers into their personal piggy bank.
This digital plates racket is not a step forward; it’s a giant leap into the abyss of exploitation. Museveni’s regime is a cancer eating away at Uganda’s soul—a cabal of shameless thieves masquerading as leaders. These plates are not about improving services; they are about tightening the regime’s stranglehold on the people, squeezing every last shilling from their already empty pockets.
Ugandans must rise up against this ruthless exploitation. Museveni and his gang of kleptocrats have robbed the country blind for decades, and this is yet another insult to our dignity. Enough is enough. It’s time to expose this daylight robbery for what it is and demand accountability from a regime that thrives on impoverishing its citizens while its cronies wallow in obscene wealth.
