However much the Uganda government increases tax on alcohol and it's prices go high, people don't stop taking it but they just accelerate.
Every day new alcohol companies emerge with different names of drinks but they all end up with one mission "distracting the brain".
Here in Uganda alcohol is considered as a necessity in life. "" I don't know how you people survive without alcohol" said John with his small ugly voice.
The system in the capital ranges from bar to bar to bar to night club. Someone drinks and forgets the way home. Urinating in pants is part of the story and am sure you see them.
It was most commonly taken by men but now days women are taking the lead irrespective of age and religion.
It's hard to find an alcoholic without damage on his or her body. If the damage is not because of a punch then it is for an accident.
There is this John, he is black and thin, he is short with eyes red due to heavy litres of alcohol, and he has an ugly small voice.
John is a subject to almost every prison in Uganda but all his cases are alcohol oriented. Fighting, moving at night and intimidating citizens are cases that always hunt John.
Recently he was punched on his left eye and now a swollen face accompanies him. Many alcoholics like John are facing the same problems but they hardly know them.
I was shocked when one Kingdom launched a beer and yet it tells it's subjects to be hardworking, may be alcohol increases the work-force.
I call them victims of the punch because each alcoholic has ever received a punch.
