Ugandans
I am holding a provincial election come 12th June 2014, we are in a campaign
marathon as I post this writing. We have three major parties and this is
what theyre selling out there, The Conservative want to cut the civil
servants by I think 10%, they want to stop corporate welfare and create a
million jobs. The Liberal we are targeting to create jobs by revitalizing
old schools roads bridges we need to start a provincial retirement benefit
program, The NDP wants to hand 1200 dollars to every parent and those taking
care of the old people, cut the auto insurance by 15% and cut education
money. I have just gone through them quickly so I have left out very many
other issues because I have only seen the NDP platform which is 11 pages,
the Liberals and Conservative platforms are not yet out or I have not
physically read them. But that is how clear are the policies sold today. I
have followed this election and now waking up to everyone opening the
bottle of Champaign for Brenda has won the election, I have no single clue
why she stood for, let alone a single policy she has sold to win this
election, because she campaigned to remove Museveni which is never a
political policy.
Secondly it simply beats my mind how everyone believes that DP is a good
party to win the election do you know the DP policy and do you support it?
To those who are UPC members in this forum posting congratulations, is this
woman going to push your party policies? How do you support a member of
another party to win and you congratulate her when she is supposed to oppose
your own party? Does that make sense to you and if she is good enough for DP
why isnt she good enough for NRM? Lastly on this point I have argued always
that what we need is to remove presidential elections and only elect MPs and
the party with more MPs creates the government, but that must mean as well
that all party leaders must be MPs. Because you failed to follow my advice
get educated that even if you get all Movement MPs un elected, Museveni will
still remain the president. How is this winning of a value to you?
Lastly the opposition has always made a very good case that they need an
electoral reform in Uganda and they have sold that story very widely
including to international community. I believed it too for I think we need
it. Brendas winning has just demonstrate that the electoral reforms sell
was a stupid idea and it has just been pissed on. You simply cannot stand in
a country where DP can stand and be allowed to win, and claim that you have
a terrible electoral system and it needs to be reformed. This win means that
Museveni and Uganda Government are committed to democratic principles and
the opposition has the powers let alone constitutional protection to file
candidates and they compete but win. The opposition by this win has just
pissed in their own plate and Museveni has won 100%. You cannot claim that
this election is un fair when you are all standing on tree tops as
Orangutans praising the win done under Museveni and you succeed. This tells
critical thinkers that actually Museveni is a democratic man only that
Ugandans are stupid that they always cry unfair election when they so loose.
My pray is that the next time a candidate loses you will stand as an old man
and still praise it for elections are about wining and loosing.
I am congratulating The movement for being such a democratic organization
and to show such a high political maturity, let us all move on.
