[Ugnet] THE POLITICAL BLIND SPOT UGANDANS THROW EACH OTHER
Peter Simon Okurut
One of the most developing cities in Uganda under the Amin’s government was
Arua, it was built even pass Bombo, the houses were built at a speed of
starting with a power pole in the plot, so that the frame of the house was
being dug as the light was coming off the pole that will supply the power to
that very house. Many Lugbara, Madi and Kakwa were driving to Arua every
weekend for they had built a huge city up there. I knew the city for my first
job in Uganda was with Agriculture and Live Stock Industry that had a farm in
Zeu. By the way since you come from Eastern Uganda we owned the Namalu farms
too, as I have stated before in this forum. Here is my first question sir, what
happened to the entire city of Arua, where did it go? The last time I passed
through Arua the city was all gone, not looted but the city looked like it was
moved. Where did it go?
My second question to you sir, have you ever got a chance to read the report of
the team that was led by Moses Apiliga and Anthony Butere on West Nile?
You know it is these issues that make Uganda politics a very complex meal to
digest, for you are sitting in a forum to educate us how West Nile was running
perfect, Peter the Prime Minister at the time who I think was Otema Allimadi,
with the Army Commander Tito Okello and the minister of supplies Moses Apiliga
visited East Madi, and found that two missions at Adjumani and I forget the
second name had been attacked by Acholi, and every refugee killed, there were
about 50,000 refugees at those two missions. The ministers publicly cried and
the commander at the time was a one Lieutenant Colonel Ojul, who was arrested
at the spot. That very same Ojul was released the next day at orders of some
one I do not know even to today. There are some good readings that were done by
Illakut Ben Bella out there on the carnage Acholi did in West Nile. Ben Bella
ended up fired and Lt. Col. Ojul reinstated back into the army. That is how the
then Uganda functioned.
Peter one of the things that confused me a great deal in Uganda was the
attitude of “So what” I failed understanding why it was so complicated for my
fellow Baganda to agree with me that camping Acholi was wrong, every single
person I sat down with kept on throwing me the term So what? My entire life has
been about the whole country, it has never been narrowed to a region, that is
why you see me writing pieces about county level services, for I think it is
the best way out, I worked in jobs that took me to all parts of Uganda, and all
Ugandans deserve a good country, yet here I was among people that threw me a so
what? Not many Ugandans have been to Zeu, there are people in Arua its self
that have never been to Zeu for it is the last part of Uganda, some sections
are in Uganda and some are in DRC, yet I worked there. Just how did this
society turn around and become such animals that do not care when you raise the
issue of Acholi have been camped? At what point did they become a “So What”
society?
They changed for Ugandans like you changed them. How? When you become so
callous in a public forum and state that life was very normal in West Nile,
when you show up in a public forum and state that schools were running very
normal, when you show up in a forum and publicly state that the people of West
Nile had no problem for they even had a representation in parliament, and if
they had a problem those MPs represented them to the government. That is being
a very tough callous man. I happen to be a Ugandan that have written a great
deal about Acholi, about the violence they did in Luwero and about the way they
were camped. But at not a single time have I ever stated that The Acholi in
camps were doing very fine for they had MPs in parliament, and if they had
problems they were represented. I just cannot go that far.
And what is so strange is that you are not a commoner on a Uganda street, you
are a very educated man, not only educated but you live in diaspora, where you
are not even limited by Uganda politics, you have the ability to watch Uganda
issues with a bird’s eye view. Yet you turn around to brag how institutions of
higher learning were running normal in West Nile during the time. I wonder what
else you have bragged about to Ugandans, I wonder what else they have listened
to from you, to make them reach a point of using a term “So what”? Life must
always have a value, it frightens me when we as a society ignore a death of
50,000 Ugandans. By the way that was only on the two missions, I have not yet
even touched the Ombaci Massacre this morning. And the second mission that was
attacked with Adjumani was called Pakele, and I apologize.
I need God’s strength in deciding who is actually worse in Uganda, the one that
authorized the immediate release of Lieutenant Colonel Ojul or Peter Simon
Okurut?

Peter Simon Okurut
The first sentence of your writing is very disappointing, so to you if the
government terrorizes a region and the politics of that region stall, it has a
right to sit in Kampala and anoint any one it wans to represent it in
parliament. What if Museveni did that, would have you concurred? There was a
war in West Nile, the responsibility is not of Moses Ali who I even fail
understanding what he was fighting for, but the responsibility of making
decisions in West Nile or about West Nile was the government responsibility.
Your second paragraph shows the exact danger of people inside the government
failing to understand what its arm or how its arms are functioning out there,
surely it is very possible that Paul Muwanga never understood the violence that
was masking the entire Kampala, the man had a 24 hour security service. Here is
the surprise to you sir, all those administrations you have listed were truly
in Kampala but neither Lule, Godfrey Binayiisa, the Military Commission nor
Milton Obote were in charge in Uganda, it was actually one man David Oyite
Ojoke. Through out all those administrations Oyite made the most brutal
decisions in that country that covered the region from the day of Amin
departure to when Museveni came to power.
If my recollection is right the region remained closed off throughout, and the
first car to be driven to West Nile was Chris Opoka’s vehicle that had a first
view of what exactly was done in West Nile. It was shocking. My dear friend the
late OJ also had an aerial view of the region and he puked.
Peter there was so much suffering in West Nile, it is a region that we have
absolutely no hand on knowing how many people were murdered, United Nation has
a fair knowledge and I use that term sparingly, of how many Acholi and Langi
that died in the Kony/Museveni war. There is no organization that can tell us
how many people died in West Nile. A region you now blame on Moses Ali. But
holding this discussion is very complex for you blame Museveni of murdering
Acholi and Langi than Joseph Konny, but you turn around and blame Moses Ali for
murdering the death of the people in West Nile than UPC and the Obote two
government. That kind of selective twisted reasoning must frighten ever
intelligent Ugandan out there. You take on the different organizations that
were running Kampala, but according to your knowledge, Peter do you know a
single function that was done by the Yusuf Lule, by Binayisa, by the Military
commission in West Nile? Do you know of any government agency that had an
office in West Nile? What is its name sir, for even police stations were closed.
Now few days go Pink stated that life under Amin was hell on earth, Peter you
were in Uganda under the Amin’s government, do you actually know of a single
government agency that was cut out of Lango or Acholi? And I agree Amin was a
dictator, the man came to power through a gun which I opposed and still oppose
to today, but during his reign, was there a school that lost a teacher, a text
book that was never handed to Acholi kids and Langi kids and for free? A
teacher that failed to be paid a salary? A road that was never maintained, a
power shortage, a phone system that failed to work. Peter Simon Okurut tell me
a single government service that the Obote government had running in Lango and
Acholi which Iddi Amin removed. We were both living in Uganda than the Pinks
craps that talk out of the CNN behind. I worked in the region, and I toured it
many many times, and I know exactly what happened there, please tell me what
service that was lost due to Amin’a hate of Lango and Acholi to make it a hell
on earth. I insist on services because with out them you might as well have put
a bullet on every human being in that region. For the record if I may, Iddi
Amin doubled and in many times tripled but expanded the government services
that Lango and Acholi had during the Obote one government. Lango and entire
Acholi expanded with the rest of the country in the Amin expansion of services
to the people.
If Acholi and Langi found that expansion to be the hell on earth, and pay it
back by cutting West Nile off the country for all those years, then one can
visibly understand why the mother fuckers deserved to be camped.
Museveni is probably the man of the generation.

[Ugnet] THE POLITICAL BLIND SPOT UGANDANS THROW EACH OTHER
Friends
A blind spot is valuable when youre driving a car, it enables you to see
what you cannot see on the side of your car, Ugandans discuss their
political structure using that spot to hide in issues they just do not want
to talk about. They pick them up and throw them in the blind spot and
continue driving the narrative they want. This morning as I was responding
to Peter Simon Okurut, I raised the shutting down of the West Nile. From
April 11th 1979 to January 29th 1986 West Nile did not have a government
service. It is very strange how we picked up that information and simply
threw it into the blind spot and moved on with our lives. And here are the
questions I need you to ask your selves, how did pregnant women have babies?
How were broken bones repaired? How were those bitten by snakes treated?
There was totally no government in West Nile for I was working in Uganda
Posts at the time and the counter collecting the mail heading into the West
Nile in Kampala General post office was closed. Buses were not going, for
the road was closed off. Buses were stopped to go there, and the power
supply they had was cut off. The people that died in West Nile at the time
never got a death certificate for the government was officially closed.
Why dont we talk about this genocide? Because we picked it up and threw it
into the blind spot of Uganda politics and moved on.
Peter Simon Okurut has just barbed how West Nile had a government for it
even had elected MPs, Friends that is a very annoying statement, and that
explains how Ugandans were driven to poring Kerosene into the ass of Acholi
to go home and die slow. And the word was direct, Acholi should stop to
think that they have a monopoly on violence. Allow me to explain to you what
Okurut has just puked out. When that election came in, the road to West Nile
was already closed and Ugandas map was ending in Lango. All political
parties did not campaign in both Apach and Arua districts. UPC got
candidates that were sitting in the Nile mansion and announced them as the
candidates of the two districts. They never held a single campaign in West
Nile, they never held an election office in West Nile, and they never went
to West Nile even one time for at the time the two districts were un
passable. As by the Uganda gazette of the 5th December 1980 Vol.LXX111, No 3
{You can actually order this document from your public reference library}
UPC filled the following names :-
Apac District
Apac South Makmot Okello, Henry Milton Bonima
Apac Central Omodi-Okot, Bernard Stanley
Apac North Dr. Ojok Newton Isaac
Arua District
Arua North Samuel kenyi
Arua West Yuma John
Arua South West Bandanyanya Ronal Nathan
Arua Central Asubo Makarios
Arua South Butere Anthony Logudo
Those people stood in Kampala and declared the un opposed candidates to
represent the two districts in West Nile, they never visited the districts
even when they were in parliament. Peter Simon Okurut is preaching today how
West Nile had members of parliament that represented them to the government
in case they had any problem. That kind of throwing issues in the blind
sport hurts the population of West Nile for what Okurut has stated is the
greatest insult to the population that were marginalized that much. pOcure
has made a call very many times that Ugandans must stop to be angry at each
other, and start to build their country, friends on the way Peter Simon
Okurut has pissed at the people of West Nile, Not a God damn chance.
Governments are going to continue changing in Uganda and one region is going
to become attacked. And in those rounds as they are going, one time it is
going to be firkin Eastern Uganda.
And I have followed Uganda politics, way long to lie to you this Toronto
after noon.
Blind spots are not only in Uganda politics it is also in the American
politics. George Floyd dies and they scream bloody murder, on the 4th of
July Devon McNeal get shot in the head at age 11 and dies in New York, they
throw that death to the blind spot and move on. It works for a while but I
tell you when a political party wins an election through the schemes UPC did
and you turn around to piss at the West Nilers, the political party you are
protecting goes out in ash. I came to this city when the Democratic party
was a very strong party, one of the reasons I need Joe Biden to win this
election, is because he can seal the death of that party. There is not a
single party that has ever allowed militarists to use it and survives, Black
Lives Matter is simply too huge for the party to control. At the end of the
day Black Lives Matter is going to eat the party from the inside. Think
about this, they do not have a leader, they have no office yet the death of
George Floyd raised 50 million dollars, and no one knows where it ended up.
Why are they that strong. Because now they have a political party behind
them. I have been talking to a friend in New York this afternoon, actually
