The Red Paper is a fake Newspaper which might cause genocide in Uganda

The Red paper started as an obscene new paper where nearly 100 percent of their pages where full of sex articles and or nude pictures. They made a lot of money from that but many Ugandans soon got tired of the silly pictures and they gave up on the Rep paper news paper.

They soon shifted to writing cooked up stories in addition to their sex talk, in the past few years, I have seen the Red paper telling people that the world will end in 2012, there is also a time they wrote about Nibiru for a very long time telling people that Nibiru was going to hit our planet. Some who where poor hearted sold their belongings and they now live poor lives.

The lies begin on their front page with the main headline, many times, the line is well presented to give a false impression of what is inside, they know that the Baganda love their Kabaka, so they make up an headline which will attract sales from the Baganda but write negative things about the kingdom instead on the next page.

The paper is so tribalistic, I think that is why most of their employees are westerners, which is not God for any company which write on national issues, it is the only paper which will quote an Acholi saying “ I hate Banyankole” or a Musoga saying “I hate Baganda”. Such tribalistic articles cannot take Uganda forward. I have noted how they have labored to make other tribes hate Buganda which is a very bad thing. I read an article when they said Baganda are planning a riot from Lubiri which never came true.

A national news paper should also never take sides in politics as the red paper does, I have read about how they blame Besigye for the fires in the September 11 riots, It seems that politicians are running to this paper to be written about. Though they claim to be independent, there is no doubt they are writing in favor of the ruling NRM government, I am not a politician but I have to give my comments when need.

Every time you see an article beginning with Why or How, just know Red paper is lying, articles like;
Why Museveni went to Kasubi?
Why the Kabaka did not talk?

Why FDC lost in Busoga?, are examples of lying articles you can find in the red paper, many of their no sense articles normally have By Our Reporter, if you ever see that word again, just know someone is going to lie you.

I therefore advise red paper to stop writing articles on tribal lines, one time when the Baganda and other tribes get tired of being tormented by a small company like red paper, there may not be a stone left on top of the other.

Top 5 most dangerous places in Uganda

Uganda is good place to stay but everything good has some down sides, yes, there are beautiful places in Uganda which is also the pearl of Africa and the climate is really so good. However, I bring to your notice the most dangerous places in Uganda so that you are not cause off guard. William Street This is in the middle of Kampala town just near the old taxi park, this place has so a lot of business going on but thieves and pick picketers have made it their favourite place. There are many thieves around Zainabu Aziza and Mutasa kafero plaza who are stationed around there con people who go there to shop. Burton Street Just like, William Street, Kampala and Uganda become unsafe around this place. There are many con men and people lose their belongings alot along that street. It is wise to keep your pockets tight in that part of Kampala Arua Arua town is actually not safe for many people who care about their lives, more than 90% of the people in Arua town smoke; this will increase your risk of getting cancer since it will be hard to avoid smoking areas. Kabalagala Kabalagala may be safe during the day but too unsafe at night, if you want to enjoy Uganda and your life, it is good you avoid going to Kabalagala at night. The place is always packed with prosituttes wo are also hostile. Prostitutes in Kampala and especially Kabalagala have been discovered to be hostile to people who pass by and do not use them. Mukono Mukono is known to be the leading district in murders all over Uganda, there is a lot of crime in the area and some of the evils are really so weird.
