Leadership And The Future Of Uganda: Issues And Development
Keywords:
Leadership, social, political, economical, developmentAbstract
This paper examined the effects of poor leadership on the social, political and economic development of a resource poor country like Uganda. Discussions focussed on the challenges and lessons learnt from the colonial to post independence leadership systems and their impact on the present and future Uganda. The study revealed that the current leadership mistakes and challenges in Uganda are as a result of the past bad colonial leadership systems that were mainly self-centred and not people oriented. It was concluded that until Uganda has visionary leaders who can serve the people beyond personal interests and use available resources optimally & equitably, only then, will she have economically healthy people who can meet the current and future global economic pace.
