Well said most of this young West-Nile politicians come and praise M7 without
understanding the
long and dirty politics M7 has played in the history of Uganda.

Thank you Aleli. I always tell people, there is absolutely nothing to lose
by treading carefully. As a matter of fact everyone gains by treading
carefully. Anite's supporters will do well to forward this and other
information to her. What she does with it is her preserve.
Every time anyone says something I consider preposterous, I take time to
reflect on what is said. Many a times, it has saved my "behind" in
hindsight. Having said that, every one has to live their life provided they
understand the consequences of "dragging" others down with them if that is
the case!!

This is really beginning to send chills down my spine!!
In my opinion, disregarding this information is tantamount to emulating the
stupid proverbial ostrich. Anyway, history is always the best judge and a
discerning person "knows them by their fruits!"
