Opinion: Never annoy Museveni…

“At least eight artists belonging to Ugandan group Crane Performers were on Saturday arrested for allegedly insulting President Yoweri Museveni while he was delivering a speech at a hotel in Kampala, where celebrations of Prime Minister Amama Mbabazi’s wedding anniversary were taking place. The eight performers who were attending the same event with Museveni are said to have been heard saying the Ugandan president was speaking too much and that he should end his speech. According to the Monitor, the eight had their microphones on when they made the utterances that were picked in the hotel’s sound system and heard by majority of those attending the event. The artists will be charged with insulting the person of the president“(Edward Chweya – ‘Eight Artists Arrested For Insulting Museveni At A Wedding Anniversary’ 08.04.2024, Citizen Digital).

The Freedom Fighter and liberator of the 1980s are known for using the Penal Code Act of 1950 in his favour. The colonial law which has several of articles, that has been substantial in his iron grip of the state.

People are laughing at the arrest of 8 musicians today and it shows how foolish his government is, but we have seen this before. Artists, activists and politicians have tasted the bitter fruits of the Penal Code Act. The Crane Performs follows several others who has been here.

You should never offend the “don” or the Leopards Anus. He is Untouchable, the Fountain of Honour and His Excellency can ensure the demise of others, if he feels annoyed or ridiculed. That what happened at the Wedding Anniversary this month.

Here is the Penal Code that matters…

“24. Penalty for acts intended to alarm, annoy or ridicule the President

Any person who, with intent to alarm or annoy or ridicule the President—

(a)

wilfully throws any matter or substance at or upon the person of the President;

(b)

wilfully strikes the person of the President; or

(c)

assaults or wrongfully restrains the person of the President,

commits an offence and is liable to imprisonment for life” (Penal Code Act, 1950).

If the President and his party believed in the utterance of the public. He could have amended this part of the Penal Code. The Penal Code has been amended several of times and this article could have been taken of the earth. It could have become a relic of history. However, it is still active in the year of 2024 and people will be charged because of it.

It takes nothing to offend the President. President Museveni is easily annoyed and offended, which is a reason for several of people detained, charged and taken into custody over their utterances in public. The musicians now are the latest ones… and there will be more than these. As this law is active and will be used whenever the President deem fit. He will order it and ensure the demise of others. They will learn a lesson and that the President is the “high above”. Peace.

Opinion: Nandutu has fallen off so quickly…

The former journalist and show runner of the “Point Blank”, Agnes Nandutu MP is now back to the back-bench of Parliament. Nandutu MP was elected in 2021 on a Independent ticket after losing out in the National Resistance Movement Primary. So, she was a NRM leaning Independent MP and was lucky to become a State Minister for Karamoja.

That’s how she was able within a short window go from being a civilian to a Minister. The President gave her a prominent role and office. She was so lucky and giddy to be there. Bashing in glory and getting the honours of the office.

Instead of building upon the trust given her. She used her Ministry and Office to eat. The moment she was able to enrich herself. She took the moment and did just that. As much as the stockpiles of mabaati was emptied. As an MP and Minister of Karamoja, she stole Mabaati and misused her office.

At one point, she was one out of few that was made an example for. She was put on trial and arrested, arraigned and spent some time behind bars. However, she was never fully charged or sentenced. Therefore, the authorities just made her example… and didn’t penalize her totally. That’s why she isn’t behind bars, but on the back-bench of Parliament.

This week the MP lost her office and kicked out of the Office of the Prime Minister. As her role belonged under the Office of the Prime Minister. That must hurt her pride and being told she wasn’t a minister anymore.

Nandutu went from being a journalist to MP to Minister within a hot-minute. Now she is demoted and being made an example of. Even if she haven’t paid a hefty price. It is a subtle backhanded slap to be demoted like this. While others who partake in the thieving is still thriving and bashing in glory with His Excellency.

Agnes Nandutu MP will still be around, but the President has taken action against her. She wasn’t above it all and that’s why she was losing in the recent reshuffle. Nandutu couldn’t even be a Minister through the whole term. No, she gotten three years and one of them in trouble. Months after the trouble losing her office. That’s a telling story and show how she has fallen.

Nandutu MP would have made a skit and run a joke about this if it was another MP on Point Blank. She would have said something sarcastically and mockingly about how she went from thieving to losing it.

The former journalist now have to walk carefully. She is not above it all and could easily be used as a scapegoat again. That’s why she lost her influence and office. The President needed to remind the cabinet and use some of them to show some fight against corruption. While his still keeping several others implicated in the same scandal. Therefore, it isn’t a truthful or honest enterprise of His Excellency.

However, Nandutu is feeling the pendulum. The MP isn’t as prominent or important enough to be kept. Her independence and ability to win in the 2021 elections aren’t celebrated. That’s why she could get demoted and lose the office. If he wanted too… the President could have written a letter and pursuit the case even further with the authorities. Therefore, Nandutu is lucky to be here and still able to eat in the August house.

Nandutu MP is an example of how not to run a Ministry. She is an example of how arrogance and hubris can lead to your downfall. Right now she’s licking her wounds, but she will see another day. Already walking free and tasting the wealth of the back-benches of Parliament. Not like she’s paying huge price or being recalled as an MP. If the NRM did that and went further. That’s when she would have lost it all. Peace.

Opinion: Naye Mzee…. You have worked with them throughout your whole career…

“People like [Speaker] Anita Among are not the problem. The real problem we have is the traitors working for foreigners. They are not mistake makers but outright traitors working for wrong foreigners like homosexuals and imperialists. How can you talk so much on social media about Anita Among instead of those traitors? I’m getting intelligence and we’re going to expose those traitors” – President Yoweri Tibuhurwa Kaguta Museveni (23.03.2024).

We are just supposed to be forgetful. We are just supposed to look away from the obvious and act indifferent. That’s what the President wants and he plays a blame game. It isn’t foreigners fault that the Parliament is corrupted, the foreigners aren’t partaking in the illicit funds and misuse of office in Parliament. That’s on the merit on the ones holding office in the Parliament right now.

Yes, the President uses sloganeering and familiar tropes. He uses vilification and creating invisible enemies that works with an invisible hand to influence everyone. President Museveni thinks we have forgotten and that we are all delusional.

We all know that Museveni was a donor darling and a beloved character in the West. We know that the state, his government and all institution got a giant boost by foreign direct government aid. We have seen how the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank has directly changed output and guided the state after the bush-war. It is not like the government haven’t had a large part of the funding from outside sources, which means foreign influence directly in the pockets of the President. So, he should speak less of foreign traitors and look into his own actions first.

President Museveni has fought the “war on terror” on behalf of the West. Museveni have accepted using his armies in the “dirty” wars that the Western armies doesn’t want to touch. His armies have been deployed, trained and gotten ammunition as a pay for doing these services. We are supposed to forget that part too. That’s how has been beloved by Clinton and W. Bush. That’s just something we are supposed to forget aren’t we.

That’s why homosexuals and foreign interference is bad in 2024. When the old man has spent fortunes of donations and aide over the years. The President has wasted foreign funds over decades. While the funds from outside has been diminishing of late, that’s because his not following the interests of the donors. He is going in his own tune and that’s why he has to take out loans to cover the deficit in his budgets. Therefore, his mad at the donors who doesn’t follow his every whim. That’s what his “yes-men” does and Presidential Advisors does.

So to defend the Speaker by speaking ill like this… it isn’t working. Especially when you have knowledge of how someone has operated over the years. The Bretton Woods and the UN Organizations has come in with massive relief. They have shielded and taken a load of the President head. He has gotten it easier because they captured the shortfall when he needed it. They delivered where his state couldn’t and that’s why its rich calling them traitors now. When he traded shots, bulletins and speeches with them in the past. He would have enjoyed the glory in 2024 if he could. The President would have danced in Washington D.C. if someone allowed him. However, that’s not the case…. And we know it.

Shiish. Sigh. This is tiring and repetitive. Peace.

Opinion: The medicine haven’t worked since 1986…

“I hear in Dokolo there are people who are UPC and don’t want to work with NRM or join NRM, why don’t you join the medicine that seems to have worked? There was a patient called Uganda, the other medicines applied on him did not work, this one for NRM, seems to have worked” – President Yoweri Tibuhurwa Kaguta Museveni (19.03.2024)

Yesterday in Dokolo, the President took part of the National Resistance Movement (NRM) campaign in the By-Election there. Just like he normally does and shows his arrogance towards the public. This isn’t shocking, but his negating everything when speaking now.

Mzee is forgetting that he has been in office since 26^th January 1986 and had several of decades to make a difference. He is the one that was solving all “problems” and had a “vision”. However, it is really something that he says this in 2024.

Museveni cannot say his party is the medicine and the treatment people needs. When it has been tested, used and tried since 1986 with no proper results. There been some windows of hope and some time there was signs of betterment. However, in 2024 that ship has sailed…

The sickness and the treatment with the NRM isn’t working. The Republic needs another remedy, because there is no progress or even response to the usage of NRM. Only a minor elite is gaining treatment and proper medicine by flying overseas for treatment. However, the rest will never has this chance for a better life. No that is only for a selected few and the ones in the inner-circles.

President Museveni wants to still be the answer. He wants to be the man and the one who has the answer. Nevertheless, he has had his shot and misused it. Museveni with time has become the problem and created the system that is defaulting. The cronyism and the nepotism, the corruption and the misuse of office is all embedded in the government his running. That’s because of him and how his cronies or lackeys are operating day-to-day.

That’s why the medicine that NRM is prescribe to the patients aren’t healing them. Neither is it helping with the sickness or the keeping the body in shape. No, the NRM have neglected and given fake medicine. They have either kept the medicine away from the patient or given them wrong treatment, endangering the patient and the ones who needed help. That they can do because the ones in-charge are paid, but the citizens have no where else to go. This is why the NRM hasn’t done what it needed to do.

President Museveni should know this by now, unless his lackeys are telling him porkies or his looking the other way. As President he should see how the public is living and how things are not changing. The people aren’t getting a better life or seeing a better future. No, the NRM is delivering more of the same.

That is the tragedy… and the patients deserves better. They deserve proper treatment… and not false hope. Museveni is saying the NRM is the answer, but that is proven to be wrong. His Excellency and his convoy won’t find redemption or give healing to the ones in need. No, that isn’t in their interest. That is proven with time.

If you take NRM and believes their words in 2024. You are naive and forgotten all the years of mischief. Museveni cannot get away it… and we need to call him out on it. He could have made a difference, but that wasn’t his priority. Peace.

Opinion: The Convoy is the owner of the Republic

“When the President thinks of leaving his home to Kampala, you mean you have no mechanism of knowing when to close the road? He doesn’t pay in the first place, now you inconvenience people who pay and that isn’t to say that the President is less important. I personally appreciate the value of the President’s security that is why I have no quarrel with lining up his soldiers along the entire route, but the President is using one lane, you close even the next one, does it make sense to you whether economic or social sense? Instead, it endangers his security because somehow, he is going to be entangled with people who have been locked up in a particular area and congested” – Medard Lubega (12.03.2024).

Someone didn’t get the memo. I cannot fault the Member of Parliament for not getting it. Nevertheless, His Excellency, the Fountain of Honour and the President is the “owner” of the Republic. It is all in his hands and his words are the law. That’s why he can write a letter and direct people where to go or do. Therefore, it makes sense that in his power to stop traffic and takeover roads.

The President is living the high life. The man, the myth and the legend of Museveni is allowed to whatever he feels like it. His the man who are a demigod and a unique person. The forever Very Important Person (VIP) and Commander-in-Chief. There is nothing that the General and Head of State cannot do.

That’s why roads have to be blocked and the routes his taken has to be sealed off. It don’t matter if citizens or people are getting issues because of it. They are there to serve him and be the servants he needs.

We can see it and we know the President has a massive convoy. That has been recorded and his minions has it too. Cabinet Ministers and other high ranking officials drives like they own the roads too. They have learned that from the head and its shown for everyone.

That the MP is questioning it now shows ignorance to the fact that his the almighty and the others are in his way. Everyone is supposed to know this and his an overlord. The man above society and the one who has all answers. That’s why he was the only man with a vision. Therefore, anyone shouldn’t challenge him and his rights.

When he needs a road. The other commuters and people needs to back-off. It becomes his and he can do whatever he feels like. They can use safety and whatever regulation as a reason for it. However, we know this is a power-move and the President bashes in the prestige.

The MP will never stop this from happening. Museveni will continue with his activity. The people around Museveni will direct and ensure his passage without concern of others. It is only one man that matters and that is the President.

That’s the memo that the MP never got. The State House should send it to him and get him to acknowledge that. Peace.

Opinion: Nabbanja we see you…

“Stop accusing me of stealing iron sheets. Talk about the things you have done for the people, I have never stolen iron sheets. Don’t accuse me of stealing iron sheets. You have done the likes of [Mathias] Mpuuga giving themselves Shs500m, did you hear my name among those? By the time I became Prime Minister, I had already roofed my house with roofing tiles (tegula), the other iron sheets I took them to Kagadi where they were used to roof a church. So don’t spoil my name, Ssenyonyi and team, the problem of corruption will kill our country. Money is stolen; iron sheets are stolen, even from the Office of the Prime Minister” – Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja (10.03.2024).

The Prime Minister thinks we have forgotten that she was investigated together with several ministers and high ranking officials who was a part of the mabaati scandal last year. This one is lingering on her, as it was part of her Office, which the stockpile of Mabaati was taken from. She had to know what went down and not just blame lower ranking officials within her office. However, we know her arrogance and won’t take responsibility.

We shouldn’t be shocked that Nabbanja acts like this. She has the hubris and arrogance of it. At the moment she’s untouchable and one of them. It is really striking that she defends the Mabaati thieving… by roofing a church in Kagadi, but it was destined for Karamoja sub-region. Which means the mabaati never went where it was supposed too. No matter what the cause or the supposed usage in another region.

Her defence is that things, money and in general things are stolen from her office anyway. That isn’t a valid response. It is just an admission of guilt and telling what is going on behind closed doors. She isn’t showing strength or leadership by saying it.

Well, things are going missing like mabaati, money and whatnot. People just take things from the stockpiles, which are supposed to be delivered to certain programs and people. Nevertheless, my minions and other high ranking officials are eating of this plate. Don’t mind us… we are doing our duty and we are working for the people doing so.

It is just striking the way she tries to defend all of this. The mismanagement, the rot of the system and how the Office of the Prime Minister is a den of thieves. If it was run correctly she wouldn’t need to defend it. We wouldn’t have to call her out and knowingly seek out her part of the theft. However, we have too, because there is no other way.

The PM cannot spin this around. Especially in her defence of herself is saying there things stolen from her office anyway. That is just really strange, but that is also done to pin blame on others in her near proximity. She speaks of not spoiling her name, but she’s weakening her office by saying what she said.

If you want good spin or better arguments. Don’t expect them from this Prime Minister. She will only try to forge a narrative that others are to blame, but not her. That’s not working when the ill deeds are happening in her midst. Peace.

Opinion: 38 years of wasted energy…

You would think someone who has ruled a nation for 38 years would have more to celebrate. Someone that has been in-charge and been in office for close to 40 years should be settled. The President and the National Resistance Movement (NRM) should have been revered and popular. However, the only thing keeping it afloat and in office is the total control of the state apparatus. The NRM and the President runs things by force and by decree. That’s why his still there after all these years…

President Yoweri Tibuhurwa Kaguta Museveni could have retired in grace a long time ago. Then people would have given way and been more forgiving to his shortcomings. They would have seen him as a victor and someone who brought proper change. However, as time moves on, the pain is becoming more dire and the wasted time is evident too.

As the Fountain of Honor and His Excellency, the President has had the ability to make significant difference. He could have made vast policy changes and state programs that would affect society for decades after his reign. Nevertheless, a man who is self-serving and pro-himself. That’s why his wealth and riches are more vital than the needs of the republic.

Museveni and the NRM has had their chances, and they could have done a lot of more. Especially, in the era of being donor darling and being the “new breed” of leaders. That’s when Museveni could have ushered in a new era for the Republic.

Now we see that didn’t matter and he spoilt it all. The lessons and lectures over the years is showing that the President knows what is wrong, but his not willingly dealing with it. Instead, he has institutionalized the problems, bottlenecks and rather looks away from the crippling duplications of the state. While there is a tendency to siphon funds and they go “missing”. The words of “missing funds” have become a proverb in his time. Just like it is common knowledge that ghosts appears on paper across government entities. It doesn’t matter sort of ghost there is, but we know they are there, and someone is eating because of it.

We have seen all sorts of plans, pledges and promises. While the West Nile is left in the dark. The education sector is hurting. The Ministry of Health isn’t in a better state either. Neither is the road networks or anything else the state is supposed to deliver. Unless it is involving the army and the law enforcement. Then it is left behind and that’s what the NRM has prioritized over the years.

Museveni knows he needs LDUs, Soldiers and Police Officers to survive in office. That’s the men and woman who is at his backing-call. They are there in the moments of need and can stifle whoever stands up to him. The authorities and the state deliberately block, intervene, and ensures fear is in the air. They are using violence and brutality to show who is ruling. This is why it is either the “NRM Way” or the possible demise of someone who dares to challenge that.

Museveni and his people can act like this isn’t the case. We have all seen this. The Ten Point Program and all the other fancy plans have been thwarted. They are all in the dust-bin of history and only made to foil donors or the ones willing to cover the tab. That’s how it looks like in 2024.

38 years and Museveni have little to show for it. Unless, he wants to speak about Presidential Advisors, huge cabinet and the amounts of staff at the State House or the Office of the Presidency. I am sure he could say that has ballooned over the years. Just like the number of districts and counties over the years. There is so many and still… there is little to nothing delivered to the communities at large. That’s why you know the system is rotten from the top and it’s a deliberate act from His Excellency.

We can act surprised and shocked, but this man promised to leave after 8 years and never to alter the 1995 constitution. However, he did so twice for his own benefit and ability to rule for life. That’s who he is and his speeches means little when his action is obviously in stark contrast to how he rules the nation.

This is who Museveni is and we can all see it. He isn’t a savior or a man who really liberated the nation. He liberated himself and his inner circle, but the rest of republic is living under his mercy. It is his decision and choices that allows or blocks their liberties. They are either under his wings or in danger of being crucified. That’s who Museveni is and we all have seen it.

He came with massive promises, and he didn’t deliver. His stock has dwindled over the years and he cannot control the masses like he did in the past. Neither can the flow of information be controlled either. That’s why he could be silent about the conflict in the north that persisted for years after taking office in the 1980s. However, he couldn’t have been able to do the same now. We would see, hear or get snippets of evidence of what is going down, which is something His Excellency don’t want you to know.

Museveni has lived on a lie, defended the lie and extended the lie. We can just wonder if he would ever dare to say the truth and be blunt about what he has done. As time goes by and the acts of mischief is clear. We can just wonder if Museveni would care or be concerned about the true legacy he leaves behind.

He won’t beloved or be a hero. For some he will be, but for plenty who has been scorned and felt the iron-fist. They will never forgive a man who wielded the sword the way he did and he could have avoided doing so. Peace.

Opinion: We know why the UHRC is useless now…

“Our entire budget was diverted looking for honestly what I considered non-existent persons or some who exist actually today live in foreign countries. Others were out on bail for some serious crimes like terrorism, vandalisation of electric wires, so when we reached them, they were so surprised that they appeared on the list of missing people. In my conclusion, none of these people are genuinely missing. From the interactions we have done with these people, none of those people provided for us is missing” – Miriam Wangadya (08.01.2024).

Let me remind you that the Uganda Human Rights Commission is supposed to: “To protect and promote fundamental Human Rights and freedoms in Uganda for sustainable development”. That’s Wangadya is supposed to do and thrive towards in her office as the Commission of UHRC. However, reading her quote about the missing National Unity Platform (NUP) activists and associates. Clearly, she is not working towards and neither the vision of the organization, which says: “A society that respects human rights and fulfils civic obligations”. Because her reasoning in this matter is against just that.

I understand why Besigye and the FDC was never taken seriously by the UHRC, as their cases taken years to consider or even being heard. When the leader of the organization talks and acts this way. She just shows that she’s unfit for her role and isn’t working within the mandate or the vision of the organization. That’s flabbergasting, but not shocking…

As a leader of the UHRC she serves a purpose and helps the cause of the National Resistance Movement (NRM). The Constitutional binding reason for its existence, but it doesn’t deliver anything according to the article 52(1). That’s proven now and its evident.

The ones that is in dire straits or in trouble. They will not be shielded or helped by the UHRC. No, she will rather make excuses or sound like Mwenda. That’s the sad reality of it all. We should have been amazed that she could utter these words, but we’re not. This is why the UHRC is toothless and without remorse. It is just existing for the hell of it and not for its purpose. As an constitutional organization it is a waste of time and energy.

It is just epitome of everything wrong in the government. That’s why the UHRC is such a flagrant misuse of government spending and time. It would be better to spend money filling potholes, than spending fortunes or billions on busy-bodies doing practically nothing. Especially, when the lives are on the line and the impunity is running rampant. There is no one talking out for the victims or the ones captured by the state without charges or a fair trial. That’s why the UHRC should speak up for these people, but instead it is making up excuses.

She should know better, but that’s too much to ask. Decency, integrity and honesty is a long gone chapter. When everyone has to live on lies and deception. That’s why she has to act like this and be in the good graces of the high above. Peace.

Opinion: The NRM needs billions of shillings to monitor itself and educate people to love it…

“The Office of the President is also seeking for Shs5.517Bn to monitor and evaluate the NRM Manifesto, Shs2.058Bn to monitor Cabinet Decisions, Shs4.7Bn to monitor the Parish Development Model” (…) “The Office of the President has requested Parliament to avail it with Shs4.5Bn to train 225,000 Ugandans on patriotism ideology and conduct mindset change within 20 Communities in the coming 2024/25” (Parliament Watch, 05.01.2024).

It is a strange time to be alive, as the Office of the President is avail its needs for the future. That it needs about 12 billion shillings to monitor it’s manifesto, cabinet decisions and the PDM at once. This is expenditure and needs of the state. The state needs to spend billions of shilling to assess and review its own work.

That’s not governance or having oversight of matters. This is just adding expenses and not using government controller or the State House Controller for that matter. There should be Attorney Generals, the IGG or the PPDA to help out. Heck, the FIA and other organizations should help out too. This is why the OAG in the past dropped “value for money” reports and checked into the government expenditure. Which is why monitoring units seems like a duplication. It is just bananas.

12 billion spent on monitor various acts of government. This is wasted of the state reserves and the public coffers. Imagine, billions of shillings spent and justified to ensure you keep up to your manifesto. That the cabinet is actually acting accordingly to the pledges and promises of the past. Secondly, that the PDM is followed and enacted upon. It is just amazing really…

While we are on wastage, the state itself plans to “re-educate” or teach people about patriotism. That has to be budgeted for and needs further funding in the billions of shillings too. This costs 4,5 billion shillings alone. Meaning the state plans to pay people to “teach” it and “lecture” people about loving their nation. That’s what it really means, but also being patriotic in the “right way” which the “NRM way”. Not like they doesn’t have access to speeches going back to the 1980s of the President and could just make a silly leaflet of it, aye?

The NRM and the Office of the President doesn’t care really. In all practicality… this is just dumb. It is insane that they want to do it this way and spend billions upon billions on it. That they whole heartedly is selling it and want people to buy into it. We are just supposed to believe in all this monitoring. When we will read stories of ghosts, missing funds and whatnot. We will see potholes and lack of government services, regardless of the agents monitoring whatever in sight. That’s just what’s happening. So what are they doing?

They are just making creative budgeting and hoping people fall for it. As it is various and nefarious ways of tricking the numbers. Just to make the budget bigger and find ways to siphon funds. Because, who works with this monitoring and where is the mechanism checking on them?

Well, we don’t know and no one is telling. They just needs these funds and the state just got to pay the Office of the President. Even if nothing is done or achieved. This have at least given the entity some more funds, which will be spent. However, it will not serve a purpose or interests of the society. No, this is ensuring someone is eating and everyone else is supposed to be happy with that. Peace.

Opinion: Museveni speaking riddles about himself…

“In the last 64 years, ever since 1960, our Movement, initially by students, has been advocating for symbiosis instead of parasitism for actors within Uganda and outside. Let us concentrate on utilizing the progress of man in the struggle against oppression of man by nature, rather than using that progress in science and technology, for parasitism. Let us expunge all the ideas of chauvinism. What is good for the goose, is also good for the gander.  Stop manipulations and lectures to the societies that are different from yours. If you think you are right, influence people by example. “Let your light so shine before men, that they see your good deeds and praise your Father in Heaven”, it says in the book of: Matthew Chapter 5 Verse 16” – President Yoweri Tibuhurwa Kaguta Museveni (04.01.2024).

The one that has ruled them all since January 1986 are still speaking in codes. Thinking his smart and wise, but the words his using can be used against himself. That’s because of his oppressive nature and how he operates as a ruler. The oppressive behavior of the state and the authorities is telling. We cannot overlook that, as the knowledge of arbitrary arrests, kidnappings, keeping civilians incommunicado, torture, extra judicial killings and trial civilians in Court Martial etc.

When you know all that and listens to parts of the speech of yesterday. It is like these words was crafted against his own reign. He deserves these words hit back at him. His not a man of peace, but of brutality and war. That’s who Museveni is and we all know that. As President he can only rule by decree and orders, but not by consensus. That’s why he preferred the Movement System over Multi-Party Democracy. This is known and not even a well known secret either.

Just read this paragraph from his speech:

“Examples: the iron tools were used for oppression, the gun-powder, the air-craft, the nuclear weapons, the rockets etc., were used for the same. The greed is a miscalculation, because if you try to use knowledge to oppress others, they also strive to acquire knowledge to catch up with you and defeat you.  This is why Empires collapsed –all of them, without exception” (Museveni, 04.01.2024).

It’s like we don’t know and his oblivious to the facts of his operation. We know the drill and what he does. The greed of his inner-circle and himself. The manner of which the high ranking officials are operating and enlarging their pockets. There is no denial in it and we are seeing it happening on a daily basis. It is just the way the National Resistance Movement (NRM) are miscalculating the public sentiment and thinking they can get away with it forever.

Sooner or later, someone will find the trick or the solution to end this reign. That is just a matter of time. The oppression will not last to end of time and Museveni himself will not reign supreme from the after-life. No, his just a mere mortal, even if he believes himself to be a demigod. Alas, we know the gist and these things will matter in the end.

Sooner or later, someone will defeat Museveni too. We don’t know how or when. However, all empires fall and so will Pax Musevenica too… Peace.
