Opinion: Zebra’s murder was an act of extra judicial killing!

“When I heard of the unfortunate death of Isaac Ssenyange alias Mando Zebra, Uganda’s boxer and former captain of the Bombers. I telephoned his wife who narrated to me the events in detail. Zebra was an NRM supporter, & was mobilising for us so well. He was also training many youth in the ghetto & giving them hope in their search for meaningful life. Indeed, Zebra was meant to come and see me when he was killed. Zebra’s wife told me people in police uniform came to pick Zebra but he jumped over the wall and could have met another group who shot him first, I thought they were thugs disguising in uniform, but as I investigated, I found out that he was killed by security personnel. This is sad and devastating and I am very sorry about this. I will keep on this case and will bring every finding to the knowledge of Isaac Ssenyange’s family and the murderers will be dealt with accordingly. I am so sorry” – Yoweri Kaguta Museveni (31.12.2020)

Today in his New Years Message to the Nation, the President, His Excellency and Commander in Chief in explicit detail told that his security operatives have no issues to be the judge and the hangman. They can both seal someone’s charges on the spot and take their lives. That is how much value a persons life has.

That someone like Isaac Ssenyange aka Zebra can be taken that easily and cheaply says it all. This is a sign that lives are worthless and can be sold for a chapati. There is no value or concern. The order to take a life is without consequence and can be fixed. Heads and skulls can be broken, the heartbeat can be stopped and the person be silent forever. That is the memo from this New Years Message.

That the President and the Law Enforcement. That the ones who are supposed to save lives and be there to keep them secure. Have no issues to be the fatal force and end people’s lives. They can be judge and the hangman. They can in the blink of an eye take a life and serve no punishment for it. That’s because the authorities and the state allows it to happen.

This is extra judicial killing. A murder in broad daylight sanctioned by the state towards a citizen without a trail, without a court and without charges. A blunt attack on the persons rights and freedom to live. No decency and just death.

This is the state that the President is proud of delivering to his citizens. First kill the and later “investigate” as the case goes cold and nobody will ever know what happens. Secondly another similar affair happens and he promises to “investigate” and that case goes cold too. That is how he runs things. It is a reason why so many cases is never solved and the killers never are caught.

These men was ordered from “high above” or the inner-circle to do their bidding. As they needed to get rid of someone. This time it was Zebra. That says it all and it was all in the sphere of the Presidency. As the man was supposed to met the President too. Just like other high ranking officials killed before meeting him. This follows a tragic pattern.

If you don’t know. Now you know. This was an extra judicial killing and the state will never solve it. It will be a cold case until a new regime gets in power. Until then, this and so many other similar cases will be indefinitely unsolved until eternity. Peace.

Opinion: New accreditation scheme from the Media Council made to silence media ahead of the polls

Today on the 31^st December 2020 is the final day of reckoning in the sense that Uganda Media Council is giving out accreditations to journalists who are supposed to follow the final stretch of the polls. These are people who are already hired and working as journalists. Still, some will be blocked by this technicality.

Like Devosh Matovu of Track UG Channel on Youtube, Rock TV Uganda and Devosh Olwokya Youtube have been denied accreditation this time around.

Also Solomon Kaweesa a journalist working at NTV Uganda has also gotten denied.

These are just two who has gone out publicly with the news that they have lost it. For one reason or another. However, expect more. This might happen to all the outlets the Uganda Communication Commission wrote to Google and Youtube about as well. Ghetto TV and other outlets who are favourable of the opposition will lose their accreditation ahead of the polls. Don’t be shocked if that happens…

That is why the state does it two weeks ahead of the polls. It is a pure bitch move of the state. To take down the ones reporting in favour of the opposition. The Media Council and UCC are working in tandem. These government entities are all favourable for the President and his reign. That is why the ones opposing the state is directly targeted.

It will happen to more and these two is only the beginning. The journalists have to stop following the President and his state in the coming days. They have to defy the pressers and whatnot. If they want to be taken serious. As they are direct targets for updating on what’s happening. Something the state clearly don’t want to happen at this time. As they know their vicious ways. Peace.

Opinion: Abiy is living on a lie

Prime Minister Ahmed Ali Abiy is now living on lie. He might not consider that himself. The reality is that he will sooner or later realize that. The world is slow to catch this lie. They are hopeful the “progress” and “reforms” will settle in. However, that is just smokescreen to all the devious acts in the works.

It is just like the start of all of this was the consolidation of power and the inner-circle. Where the Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Defence Force (EPRDF), the political coalition became one party. Accept the party Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF), which is now deemed an “terrorist” and “illegal”. A former ally turned arch-enemy and is now fighting a brutal war since the 3^rd November 2020. Where the media black-out and the murky shadows of intelligence only tells smalls stories from what is happening in the region.

Alas, the Prime Minister is more bloodthirsty, as he has allies in Eritrea. He has no trouble using para-military groups like the Amhara named “Fano” to attack civilians. The PM has even gone across the border and attacked areas within Sudanese territory. That is the sort of man he his. While there was reports of supposed questions of getting reinforcement and a brigade from South Sudan. However, that never really happened, but reports that Addis Ababa was willing. Just like they had no trouble to co-ordinate attacks on Tigray together with Asmara. This really says a lot about this man.

Prime Minister Abiy who haven’t settled or created peace. A man who is feeding the fires. There are no battles within Meketel Zone. Where the armed forces are involved and 100,000 people are internally placed. God knows who many who has died there, but expect terrible numbers.

There is still conflict in Ogaden region and even across into the Afar Region. There is also skirmishes and brutal attacks on civilians from law enforcement in Oromia. It is just like everyone can be touched and get silenced by the authorities. While the supposed “enemies” are the problem. Nevertheless, the reports later on is that government forces or law enforcement was behind the fatalities. Even the sky-rocketing numbers of political prisoners who have been detained during his reign.

The Prime Minister and the state is preparing in elections. We know it is a charade. A rubberstamping exercise only to finally “legitimize” the throne. What Abiy always wanted. The glory, the throne and become King.

The man that tricked the world. That he was coming in peace. Settling old debts and scores. Wanting to resolve matters. Now his burning villages, pillaging factories and destroying lives on a daily basis. In various of zones and regions, from Tigray to Oromia. There is no Silence of the Guns. If the African Union works on doing so. Another program to get the donors to sponsor, but not do anything about it.

The Prosperity Party and their magnificent paperwork doesn’t matter. When civilians is humiliated in the streets. When sons are arrested because of the activism of their father. Freedom and liberty in the reign of Abiy is a far-fetched ideal.

Abiy isn’t a man of peace. His an old-school warlord and a warrior. He came in a cloak of peace, but he was wearing a shirt of army-fatigue underneath. His the high-priest of rule of law, but uses that as a tool to oppress the ones who stands in his way. Everyone who crosses his path and is an adversaries will suffer.

The ones who haven’t gotten that memo haven’t seen what has happened to the leadership of the Oromo Opposition Parties and neither the TPLF. That is just a mere reality we are living in. This man will bury you or let you linger indefinitely in dungeons. As long as he gets the throne and the glory. He will let you kin burn and come with all of his forces. Just to ensure your fear and admire his army. That is who Abiy is.

This is why what is happening to the civilians across the Republic. The continued rise of fatalities. The destruction of Tigray. The severe and prolonged oppression in Oromia. God knows what is happening in Afar and Ogaden. However, don’t expect it to be godly, but be bloody. That is who these men are. They are vicious and answers with guns. These folks are not coming with dialogue or peace. That is only used for publicity and the next days the place is burning again.

Prime Minister Abiy is living on a lie. It is just a matter of time before the world catches on this too. He tricked them, but at one point or another. When enough reports and stories from fleeing victims comes to the press. That will show the world who he really is and what he does. The time of reckoning is soon there.

Sometimes the world wants to be fooled. You can fool someone once, but usually your not able to do it twice. This time around he couldn’t do the trick twice, as the guns and warfare undermines his image and his supposed “vision”. Peace.
