Interesting is it not...and now the DP man is talking.. Apparently nobody is blaming the DP for supporting the Kabala.....it is all UPC conspiracy!
. If UPC makes the some statement..then all hell breaks loss ...the likes of emusaazi and our friend Abayombo will scream that Congress is up to no good.

Ssemo wants fight for Kabaka power
By Robert Mwanje
Feb 23, 2004
MUKONO - The head of the Democratic Party, Dr Paul Ssemogerere, has told the Baganda to fight for the Kabaka's powers.
The Kabaka of Buganda, Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II, last week complained about his lack of meaningful authority.
"It's time to pick your spears and fight for the kingdom's powers," Ssemogerere said on Saturday during the last funeral rites for Derrick Kiwanuka, the father of Mr Edmond Kiwanuka, an eminent DP official, in Nsonga village, Mukono.
"You should stop praising the Movement for keeping asleep when you are losing land, having poor public services and becoming poorer. Were you created to sleep?"
Ssemogerere blamed increasing poverty and the lack of infrastructure such as roads and medical services in Buganda on the Kabaka's lack of political power.
He said Buganda region has deteriorated a lot since 1980.
"Luwero was very rich but now you can not tell the existing picture; the roads are poor, drugs are missing where clinics have been luckily set up," he said.
Ssemogerere also advised the mourners against supporting attempts to lift the constitutional term limits on the presidency.
"The on-going talks between the government and parties are aimed at phasing out the issue of presidential term limit and the third term is targeting nothing other than clearing your land," he said.

"The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the state."
