Mulindwa that is a long question(s) Which means
there is no short or simple answer. Any Ugandan committed for the future must
rise and fight inequalities in our society. You do not have to get arms �
Russians are a living example. If
the words FREEDOM &
EQUALITY mean anything to you, watch this space. Museveni, Besigye or any
other past Ugandan leader, on the other hand could be the root problem of where
we are right now and for the generations to come. When Obote
tramped upon freedom of choice in my country, the legacy has been past on to
other Ugandan leaders and it is only the people of -----Original Message----- Fellow Ugandans, let us have a
family talk (A Lugaambo) The week end is closing in on us so
fast that no one can know what will happen to us tomorrow. So I thought that
before it closes on us, let me ask a very simple question that we all can
understand may be we can have a good sleep. And this posting is for Ugandans
only that is why I have not posted it to other forums, and if you are not a
Ugandan do not read it. The question is, Is Museveni the
problem? And I am asking this question from
my heart, please ask your self the same question, your self and see if you have
an answer on it. Why are we so dam? What is it that we are so dearly missing
that has pulled our nation to these need greedy sufferings. Late last year, I
went to Europe, and visited a number of nations, among which was Uk. In UK I
went to a Ugandan lady's home, a lady I had never ever mate before, and this
lady was not even a Muganda. But she looked in my eyes and remember this was my
first time to see her, and her legs trembled as she made her case "Edward
I just need peace in my country" That was a very powerful and touching
statement. Now to people like my self, we start to wonder what can be done so
that Ugandans of all calibre can have a right to go to Uganda and get out?
For we have lived out here for several years, we have seen administrations
coming and going, We have seen our neighbouring countries moving on and going,
we are very smart and very educated people, for I have seen no single company
that does not want to employ a Ugandan. The question
is why are we so dam? Is it Obote? When I came in this country in 1984,
I prayed to have the life to a time to be able to go back to Uganda, and I
honestly was not praying to reach in 2003, for the medical condition I arrived
in, was very pathetic. And if you have questions on that statement ask Chris
Opoka my neighbour and a man who has proven him self to be a true friend, he
will explain. But today I am in 2003 and I have no reason to believe that I can
go back to Uganda than the couple of times I would go in under the cover of the
night. Is this Obote's mistake? In my leaving in this country, I
have made sure that I have not involved my self into political issues. Let me
clarify that, I have made sure that I have no political affiliation, for a very
simple reason, if I belong to Kabaka Yeka which of course as a Muganda must be
my first choice, I must go with the chorus, I must sing only one song.
What I mean if Ssabasaja makes a statement or if Buganda makes a statement
I am not comfortable with I can not oppose it, for it is from Ssabasaja. This
kind of belief is so detrimental that it has created so many enemies between
our selves and in the process we have failed to move or to grow on. We have
forums here which are so interesting, that if you debate the kind of Federalism
you want in Uganda, you are deleted out of the forum. It is so hurting that if
today ask what forum we have that combines Ugandans abroad, you can not get an
answer, couple of Ugandans on Ugandanet, some on Ugandacom, some on DP or Uga
something that Mwaami Bwanika runs, UNAA something on and on.
Yet one would think that we as Ugandans would get a way where we can put
our sorrows and power together to see that we can make changes into our nation.
For you know what? I have been with Baganda's Alur,s Kakwa's you name it and
all of them want Museveni to get out of power and we go home. At least in all
nations and in all Ugandan meetings I have attended they all have a single
call. Museveni and Movement get out of our nation. Then I wonder why can't we
do it? But we have tried. And in the
process we have made our aims clear. As Baganda we have looked into the crystal
ball and seen the problem of Uganda, being Milton Obote and UPC. We have spent
the entire adult age of our lives to preach that what ever happens to Uganda
was a cause of Obote, when there is a war in Northern Uganda it is UPC not
working with the government. And I have been accused to be a member of UPC way
too long, in fact I have been accused to be financed by Lusaka, so there is
nothing you can accuse me to scare me any more. But I have a question for you
as a Ugandan, Are the problems we have in our country today caused by Milton
Obote? Mwaami Kasangwawo, did this man really do so much damage that today
in February 2003 people are being shot in Kampala fday light for Obote messed
up Ugandans minds? Let us cross check our selves, Mwaami Matovu, When prisoners
are put in safe houses, where they are made to drink their own urine and
threatened to be bitten by poisonous snakes, is this Obote's problems? The
RCs we know to be looters are they UPC wingers? What about the UPDF
officers that rape women , Yes I am talking about those who are sent in
Northern Uganda to rape every single woman and girl so that they can be
infected by AIDS. Is this all works of UPC? (President Obote, I am not here to
tarnish your name, but when you become an important figure as you now are, your
name will pop up, and I apologise for this) No do not respond to me, give me a
chance to respond to you, for you know we as Ugandans have a right not to
belong to any political party or any political movement but that does not mean
we are useless. That does not mean that we are clue
less. Our being Ugandans entitles us to state our case and all we are
requesting all of you, as movementists and political party bosses, is to
listen to our nagging voices. For yes we failed to have party uniforms, we
failed to go to Kyankwanzi, but we are still Ugandans with mouths and we
will talk until when cows come home. We will talk until when the old lady I
found in London has a right to go and visit the tombs, North of Kigumba. May be Museveni today is not the
problem, may be it is our brains that stopped for a while and may be that
is where he is abusing. Look here. My Dad used to say you
must always take stock of what you do, to know how good/bad you are doing. Well
how about doing that right now? Let us look at Kiiza Besigye. This is a man who has been in the
movement for God knows how many years. He has sanctioned the murders of
millions of our people. Can I back up my statement? Hell no but all I can say
is that it is very disturbing if he was in Uganda, close to Museveni that long,
and never got a clue that Ugandans were treated worse than a pig. It bothers as well to know that he never knew that
Ugandans in the North were in camps. He did not even know of the deaths of
Ugandans in Mukura when they were packed in train wagons, Kiiza Besigye did not
know any thing about the murders of Ugandans in Kanungu, the same fellow did
not even know bout the murder of Kayiira. Nkwaanga Nope, odongo Nayenda?
Naahh!! he did not hear about that one either. Now Mugalu who was shot in day
light he missed that one for he was napping. Over a million Ugandans are in
camps for very many years.We have now a generation of people we have no tribes
on, for the rapper is a Southerner and the raped is a Northerner, we have
thousands if not millions of bastards in Uganda, from Ugandans who have been
forced to be in camps and officially recognise to be Internally
displaced people. But all of them KiizaBesigye never heard of them. If Kiiza Besigye ever heard of these
murders and rapes, if kiiza Besigye ever felt that these are wrong things to
done to Ugandans, has he ever told you what happened? Let me put this straight,
has Kiiza Besigye, ever come out clean as a man who ran out of Uganda for he is
tortured and he told you what actually happened, or who killed who or who was
killed where? Tell me Ugandans, the information's you
have, what is it that Kiiza Besigye added to it that you did not know that you
know now? I am not here to spend my life on
Besigye's life. God knows he might be hiding now under the bed for the wrongs
he did to our people are hurting him. But this is what I want to say. The
moment Besigye stood for election, I was personally attacked for I must support
him, this is a man who is going to bring changes and we are communicating with
him, and people were ecstatic, And I asked, how much do you know about him? Yes
I talked with his guard. Then you wonder Ugandans I could have gone on with
this posting for ages, for I have not even reached the Fracas of Baganda like
Mwaami Kibuuka who thought that Museveni was going by God to give him a post by
accepting Federalism in Uganda. The entire system went awo to the extent of
demonizing Mulindwa and calling him a Nubian, for if you were called a Muganda
at that time then your criticism would cost the Federalism going to be
delivered. Ugandans you are babies and you need to be fed with milk. My heart
goes to Museveni who has to lead you until death for he is getting old and he
has no serious challenger. I think we have to take stock of our
issues. I think we must stop the blame game. I think our previous leaders like
Milton Obote deserves a right of respect for those are men our kids must look
at for the future of our nation. And I think I must as Mulindwa Edward have a
right to make such a statment when I am not so scared to be ladled UPC or anti
UPC member. I just want to be a free Ugandan expressing my feelings about my
country. Can you as well do so? May be and only may be we can know the problem
with our nation for Museveni does not seem to be. Have a good one all Em
