The World Bank Group today released the following statement on Uganda:

“Uganda’s Anti-Homosexuality Act fundamentally contradicts the World Bank Group’s values. We believe our vision to eradicate poverty on a livable planet can only succeed if it includes everyone irrespective of race, gender, or sexuality. This law undermines those efforts. Inclusion and non-discrimination sit at the heart of our work around the world.

Immediately after the law was enacted, the World Bank deployed a team to Uganda to review our portfolio in the context of the new legislation. That review determined additional measures are necessary to ensure projects are implemented in alignment with our environmental and social standards. Our goal is to protect sexual and gender minorities from discrimination and exclusion in the projects we finance. These measures are currently under discussion with the authorities.

No new public financing to Uganda will be presented to our Board of Executive Directors until the efficacy of the additional measures has been tested.

Third-party monitoring and grievance redress mechanisms will significantly increase, allowing us to take corrective action as necessary.

The World Bank Group has a longstanding and productive relationship with Uganda; and we remain committed to helping all Ugandans—without exception—escape poverty, access vital services, and improve their lives.

This is so funny...! grin

So, basically, embrace the madness of the West or become self-sufficient. Issokay. tongue

This is what we keep saying... A whole continent begs up and down like Almajiris. African nations can't even get financial relief from fellow African nations.

No wonder Northern Africa is making serious efforts to become fully aligned with the Middle East.

Western Aid
Western Religion
Western Institutions and it's likes are designed to keep Africans in slavery.

No man gives freely without an expectant return.

Law 40 of the 48 Laws of Power says:

DESPISE THE FREE LUNCH

What is offered for free is dangerous-it usually involves either a trick or a hidden obligation.

What has worth is worth paying for.

By paying your own way you stay clear of gratitude, guilt, and deceit.

Africa no dey shame?

If they do what they are supposed to do...make their country work, will there be one bullshit loan-giving group barking like a dog to them?

Omo, this life, make money legally and thoroughly...have this mooulah!

Money stops nonsense...


If you are still an undergraduate, start investing in high-income skills...in few years to come, you will thank yourself for it.
