With lies for data, we'll create a national registry of garbage / The East African, 27

The East African - Opinion:
Joachim Buwembo
"Our attempts at setting up databases have so far been miserable failures and unless we can sift the truth from the lies that will be brought in from the field, the existing structures nationwide are set to render the ID venture a dismal failure. A look at Uganda's capacity to identify persons is in order. Can we start with the passports? Many foreigners from half the world away have obtained Ugandan passports in order to seek resettlement in the West. "
