Let’s call it as it is: for us from *Teso*, this AAA vs MAO Speaker race isn’t just politics, it’s *survival math*. Whether you like Anita or not, the city of *Kampala was never built in our favour*. Our MPs know the challenges of going to Kampala and you have no office to start from 😄😄😋. They know their own performs *better in that House* when the *person at the top* is someone who knows your village, your pain, your language *echayete Bodo akiro* .😜
*The FA cup Home Advantage that if Arsenal had used could have given them quadruple.*
Eyitutu that *Access is power*. Right now, a Teso MP can walk into that office, drop the formal English, and *speak in the mother tongue*.
