[kictanet] Uganda Statehouse website a marvel

[Davis Onsakia]

As much as I like the website for the State House of Uganda, I absolutely
don't like the plagiarism I see in terms of 'copy paste' of the
design, look and feel from the White House one. Someone should be paid to
innovate and be creative not just 'pull' and paste.

Best Regards,
Davis M Onsakia
