Drama hit the Ugandan Parliament when a parliamentarian, Atkins Katusabe, who had spent some time abroad, returned and began speaking in a new phonetic English, leaving his colleagues confused.
One female member of parliament had to ask him to speak in simpler English that everyone could understand, stressing that the matter under discussion was serious and important. She also suggested that he provide written notes so colleagues could follow along and understand him properly.
While some believe Katusabe’s time abroad may have influenced his pronunciation, others disagreed. The video has sparked various reactions online, with some viewers noting that Africans often try to adopt foreign ways of speaking after traveling abroad.
