Abbey,
Im faltered by you and your statements here for I think you have forgotten that
you are dealing with silent killers here that pretend in your face and then
turn to do the best they know. I think the reason why the likes of you never
learn from history is why many have continued to suffer just because they try
to follow your advice.
Buganda and Baganda that have good faith have continued to be sacrificed just
because of such reckless thinking and people like you and the Nsibambi's and
Katumba Wamala's and many likes that have continued to help this regime to kill
rob and distort the innocent.
You might know very little about whats going on back home to make such
suggestions.

Edward,
I’m not trying to convert anyone to anything or telling anybody what to do. I’m
certainly not using this message as a bait for the government to kill Ugandans
in diaspora who pass via Entebbe Airport. I have my own fish to reel in. Infact
I do not know how I would push anyone to do travel directly to Kampala if they
are scared of doing it.
It's simply a fallacy to suppose that only a state can provide safety in a
country as ours yet Safety in one’s homecountry is something people routinely
value. Government does not promise a hereafter. That’s why it’s important that
the government engages security organs/ security people around the country;
sensitize them about our feelings towards them and their behaviour………….. such
that we come to some sort of understanding on certain situations.
It could be argued that the very survival of the Museveni government is
actually dependant on the fact that they regularly face hostile opposition(
both at home and abroad). The cycle has repeated itself countless times over
the millennia:Ugandans abroad enter the country through our porous borders; do
whatever they have to do; and then come back to oppose the government.
The unfortunate result has been "silent persecutions"if caught by the state,
not learning anything positive or new from their country during their stay;
failure to engage important people and colleagues - time after time after time.
Every time they pull the tiger's tail, they get scratched. Of course, they
blame the tiger.Is that what some of you would like to continue?
Ofcourse, It is not uncommon to find those within the government who actually
applaud these bad actions against some members from diaspora that attempt to go
home either to visit or stay permanently. For instance, didn’t you read the
response I got from Owekitibwa Tony Owana when I first introduced this issue? I
thought we could use such an influential person in the media to advocate for
the peaceful return and safety at home of Ugandans in diaspora, but his
response totally diasppointed me. I'd almost be willing to bet that Mr.Owana
Tony would feel some sort of satisfaction if any of the vocal people here on
UAH or other social networks are arrested or killed by the government at home.
But we won’t give up engaging other sobber minds at home to see that Ugandans
abroad feel free and safe to travel back home. This is not only about me as
Abbey Semuwemba but a lot of other people out there. People have been convinced
that we have got some sort of total military dictatorship at home. Anything
could happen to one walking down on streets and police would do nothing. People
are scared of poison and bullets. Everybody is scared, and this is not good for
the country both in the short and long run. We need to start from somewhere,
thus, my suggestions to General Kayihura and others in the government.
