Small Thread| I will miss Nasser Ntege Ssebagala. They don't make them like that anymore. Just this week I was starting to write about the contradiction he embodied in relation to the debate about "academic papers" and qualifications btn supporters of Bobi Wine and YK Museveni
If there are two forces competing for moral and material space in the life of a #Ugandan it is the struggle to "buy a plot of land and build a house" alongside the busy activity involving the acquisition of "more papers", degrees, diplomas and certificates.
