THEMATIC OVERVIEW
Theme: Forced Monetary Contributions
Ordinary people across the country continue to be forced to contribute their hard-earned
money to partisan celebrations. While a good number of the people would not mind as much
if celebrations such as Independence Day, among others, were truly national the partisan
complexion of the festivities in favour of the ruling party has served to put off many citizens.
Not only that, the crippling poverty levels across the country also fuel resentment amongst
the general populace.
