<< For example if you were a Munyankore during Obote II when Museveni was in the bush you were weary of hearing people say after you at Kisimenti 'Nyankore, nyankore'. I remember my father climbing into the ceiling to spend the night in fear of political repercussions and we lived right in Nakasero where you would have imagined there was relative security. >>
So writes Reform Agenda's Ann Mugisha> Citizens, I am lost here: please inform me is calling somebody "Nyakore Nyakore " some sort of a dirty word? ..and because it is a dirty word our learnt friend Anna Mugisha de-tastes it's usage! Ann Mugisha says her father way back sometime in 1980, was forced to quote "I climb into the ceiling to spend the night in fear of political repercussions " It was a known case that some of our friends were engaged in clandestine operations to undermine the UPC government. You will recall, fellow citizens, that soon after the Museveni come to power, many of our so citizens made statements (some of which were noted in Kampala Dailies) about how they help the then NRA guerrilla force fight the people of Uganda. What then, I ask, exactly did Ann Mugish's Dad do or did not do, which one would argue, trigger the Paranoia against the UPC government and propelled him to seek refugee behind a ceiling? Matek
