So let us see. Museveni was in TZ where he tried to throw Iddi Amin out of
power by attacking Uganda in Mutukula, he tried to assassinate Amin in
Nsambya Police barracks and in the process killed Amin’s body guard, I think
the kid’s name was Musa. While in Tanzania he killed several people that he
set up by sending them letters to Uganda to be picked up by SRB. Among those
he killed while in TZ is Muhozi’s own mother. He came to Uganda after the
fall of Amin and created FRONASA an organization that murdered more Ugandans
than any one can imagine, from the Dr Barlow’s to the murders of The
Doctor’s village to the Odong Nayendas to you name it. When he lost in the
elections he decided to create the Luwero war in which he created mass
graves in our district. In his entire life Museveni has never been elected
into a single constituency. When we had No Lule No Work in Kampala, a Land
Rover driven by Museveni came to the City Square and he shot into the people
killing them to a point that Katikiro Kavuma died a man on one leg for he
was among those Museveni shot at city square. We did not loose more people
for Oyite Ojoke showed up on a second land Rover and instructed him to stop
shooting in the masses, some of us are alive today thanks to Oyite Ojoke.
And today you are preaching Museveni as a man that had an opportunity in
1986 to change Uganda. Do you have any record on Museveni doing a democratic
thing to leading you that conclusion,  and I need only one to show you that
he has ever cared about Uganda being a democratic society sir?

 

And I am looking for only one to support your hypothesis.

Dr. Kipenji,

I wonder what exactly is going on in president Museveni's head when he reads
all this. Honestly, he had a big opportunity in 1986 to change Uganda for
the better. What happened in between, it's something that leaves a lot of us
scratching our heads. The problem is that i cannot see things turning around
very soon, and he does not want to give anybody a chance to lead our
country, which is a shame.

Even the 'politics of sleep' is nolonger selling at all. Just the other day,
Mr.Gilbert Bukenya was lamenting about the night murders in his
constituency, Kakiiri. Beti Nambooze was lamenting about the same; a day
before Iddil day- some group of robbers again used ladder and jumped inside
the fence of my home to steal car spare parts, and they did; the
headmistress of progress Kajjansi( Lweza) suffered the same fate the same
day. There is a gang that has been breaking into people's shops around
Entebbe road areas for the last 2-6 months, but the police has done nothing
to stop it. Now, i understand the same gang is robbing people's homes
undetered by anything.

For the last 3-4 days, there has not been electricity in most parts
surrounding Kampala yet i understand a new dam was opened up  in Bujagala
recently. I have also read somewhere in the papers that the government is
inviting companies to bid for the construction of another dam at Karuma
falls. But, who is benefiting from all these projects when load shedding
cannot go away, even around Kampala city?

The so called UPE and USE is totally a mess as you have seen from the
pictures posted everyday on this forum. The schools are too ill equiped to
teach even a bird how to sing. Private schools have taken over to save the
day!

The roads are so bad almost everywhere in Uganda such that it will require
someone really committed to give them a new facelift.

Generally, everything is just a mess and i cannot see president Museveni
fixing it, yet he doesnt wanna go and he is growing older every day. Where
we go from here, i dont know since Mr.Muhoozi is also in the process of
packing his suitcases to get a permanent residence at State house in the
near future.

Politics of sleep: Why Generation 1986 needs another sedating pill


In Summary

Unless another sedating pill is manufactured for these youth, they seem to
have become immune to the ‘at least we sleep’ drugs. NRM/A needs to realise
that the sleep politics era is gone-it is time for social justice.

Being a generation ’86 descendant, I expect so many ‘historicals’, the
generation which saw the ‘old dark days’ to decry this article as hogwash
from a young man who ‘never saw what we went through’.

Generation ’86 has grown up accustomed to these habitual speechifying
stories of the liberation from the ‘old dark days.’ We have been taught that
this country could not have been if it was not for the NRM/NRA of the 27
brave men that finally ended the ‘brutal rule of the past rulers’. We have
been told repeatedly to appreciate them by voting them back to national
offices in every election.

This mystification of the liberation struggle has taken on higher tones and
is now clad in the disgusting skin of ‘you owe us for saving you’. Every day
we are reminded (both current and future generations) of the perpetual debt
we owe to all those that took part in the liberation struggle. 

Akin to other liberation movements elsewhere in Africa, the NRM/NRA also
governs mainly using the ‘war liberation psychosis.’ Even when seriously
challenged on matters of accountability, the NRM/NRA stalwarts always seek
refuge in war-time/liberation rhetoric to circumvent public scrutiny. 

It is humane for one to hold onto that over which he or she has a
comparative advantage over others, especially if the circumstances are such
that there is competition and hearts to win over. Using the advantage
negatively to sweep under the cover legitimate concerns and demands is,
however, a different issue altogether and dishonest at that.

The trump card of NRM/NRA as the liberation party is an insurance policy of
[perceived] legitimacy from the people. The talk of ‘you owe us; we fought’
has to continue being pumped into the people’s heads. This is an inherited
legacy of the liberation struggle when everyone was expected to support the
war, which ushered in and institutionalised conformity and unquestioning
support.

Today, elders tell generation ’86 that ‘at least we can sleep.’
Continuously, Ugandans have developed and taken on this character of ‘sleep’
with blind and unquestioning loyalty, some for survival as allegiance to the
high table can only be guaranteed when you parrot the party position, the
absurdity of their position notwithstanding. Others have been made to
believe that government services are privileges that the government can take
away as and when it wishes and not a right, as long as ‘you sleep’!

Ugandans have been reduced to the minimum agenda kind of life- punctuated by
the sleep they get, which was not available in the past regimes. The NRM/NRA
regime continues to thrive on the threshold of the past regimes that have
since been decried as the worst ever in the country of Uganda. 

After 26 years in power, the ruling party, which by the way is still locked
up in liberation movement-militarism mentality, looks backwards, citing
mistakes of the past regimes as beyond redemption and using them to justify
what they call their ‘fair record’. They do not strive to be clean, they
compare their dirtiness with that of their predecessors and take solace in
the fact that at least they are not so dirty like the past ‘swine’. They
survive on the fact that the people they lead have gone through so much
suffering and would not want to go back to the ‘bad old days’.

But the political terrain is changing. There is a new generation with little
or almost no close association with the liberation stories. This generation
’86 wants more from life than sleep! It is seeking prosperity, wants a halt
on the continued looting in their country, want fairness, equality, access
to justice. 

Unless another sedating pill is manufactured for these youth, they seem to
have become immune to the ‘at least we sleep’ drugs. NRM/A needs to realise
that the sleep politics era is gone-it is time for social justice.

Mr Nkuubi is a concerned citizen.
