"Uganda Has Lost Its Common Sense"– David Mpanga on Bad Leadership, Kampala Chaos & How We Fix It

In this episode David F.K. Mpanga —lawyer, and author of The Politics of Common Sense — breaks down why many African societies struggle not with resources or intelligence, but with the absence of collective reason. We discuss Kampala’s chaotic traffic, Uganda’s 2026 elections, whether democracy can deliver common-sense leadership, the cultural clash between kingdoms and modern states, citizenship, exile, and the tension between law, power and identity in Uganda and East Africa.
