Some Africans generally resent excellence.

Being exceptional a little more than usual draws an immediate ray of hatred from all around except those who admire it.

They may not be comfortable with the man's transition.

If we choose English, what is bad about speaking it well?

That man is clear enough to be understood. They should quit being petty.

So serious issues cannot be deliberated in good tones?

Abolish the use of English then.

Why is the American English the man is speaking too hard for Ugandan parliamentarians to understand ?

Don't they watch CNN, Fox, MSNBC or American Movies ?

In my opinion, the woman communicate better than him. You have not communicated when the receiver doesn't understand your message.

It’s a form of dramatic expression for people who are into Literature and theater arts.

Like adopting the behaviour of a character which you plan to act in a film.

The man's English is clear enough for anyone who is well educated and exposed to understand. The people complaining must have had poor education and spent all their life in village

Have you heard of language modification courses? If you don't undergo these, your chances of getting a job in some places is limited.
