Another Banana Republic is an autobiography, not fiction, but a true life account of Edgar Bagayana of the 3B Series fame, author of Another Bogus Marriage. After school, he joined Grindlays Bank [now Stanbic Bank Uganda Ltd.] in 1972 at a clerical level and rose through the ranks to become a senior manager, eleven years later, before opting for voluntary early retirement in 1997. Later, in 2003, as Associate Consultant, his contract to train M/s. Crane Bank members of staff was sabotaged and cancelled prematurely. As manager of a remote village bank [2003-2008], he raised standards. He stepped on people's toes. He was overthrown and languished in police cells for four days. No matter how one 'measures' the author's life, the unfortunate outcome has always been hard work that is not recognised and rewarded accordingly here on earth, as outlined in Another Banana Republic!
