We killed cooperatives and started SACCOs. To date, SACOOs that were massively started using public funds at the sub-county levels have miserably collapsed. We removed user fees in health centers (and yet these assisted health workers), and we promised to fund health. Today, you have no gloves in health units. We off loaded public corporations to the private sector, so that they can be better managed. Today, they receive the greatest selective tax waivers and capital injections as if they are still public enterprises at the cost of whimpering citizens. We killed the railway system and buried it under RVR. Now we are talking about high speed underground trains for Uganda (Vision 2040!). UPE was a good policy, but reduced into a campaign tool. That is why Netherlands withdrew from the sector, because there were no tangible results as per original intended purpose. So, in other words, what are we saying as a country, regarding our policy intentions and implementation? We must rethink and retable these matters for national discussion.
