SATIRE: When ‘I’m working on myself’ turns into ‘are you still single?

As Uganda marks 62 years of independence today, the Eastern Revolutionary Platform (ERP) is sounding a rallying cry for Ugandans to reclaim their true independence. Despite six decades of self-rule, many Ugandans still yearn for freedom and prosperity, citing decades of institutional hijacking, poor governance, and crippling poverty.

The ERP asserts that the Eastern, Northern, and Central regions have been systematically disempowered, with revered kingdoms and institutions rendered powerless. To combat this, the ERP is calling on Ugandans to join forces and demand accountability, transparency, and inclusive economic growth. The movement also seeks to protect human rights and freedoms, while promoting regional autonomy and self-determination.

Moses Bigirwa one of the ERP founders noted that there is need for accountability,transparency in governance, end corruption and ensure responsible leadership,inclusive Economic Growth and Regional Development, empower all regions to thrive economically,Protection of Human Rights and Freedoms, Safeguard citizens’ fundamental rights among others.

Led by Bigirwa Moses, the ERP is committed to leading the charge for true independence, starting in the Eastern region. With a unified front, Ugandans can celebrate genuine freedom by 2025.

As the nation reflects on its journey, it’s clear that Uganda’s independence story is complex. While the country has made progress, challenges persist. The ERP’s rallying cry echoes sentiments from other global movements, where self-determination and decolonization have been contentious issuesissues.

Bigirwa noted that in a world where nations continue to grapple with the meaning of independence, Uganda’s story serves as a reminder that true freedom requires relentless pursuit and collective action.
