Uganda Decides: Bobi Wine will lead in the preliminary results, but Museveni will be announced

Today was the polls in the Republic. This has been an awaited moment. However what is happening now will be anticipated. No matter what results and Declaration Forms is saying online. These results will be disputed. The ones uploaded to Uvote App will be good to save and have for a Constitutional Court petition, but these will not be final.

The Electoral Commission will use the 48 hours from the final polls to announce the final result. Even if everyone knows and has an idea. The game will be played some drops showing Robert Kyagulanyi in the lead. However, with every small drop this will cease and President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni will be winning. There might even be funny glitches and weird statistical errors, which is beneficial for the incumbent. That’s just what happens.

Why I am saying all this? Do I want President Museveni to win?

Hell to the NO, but I have seen this before and therefore, not on the bandwagon of a VICTORY LAP. When I know how this pans out.

This Electoral Commission and Commissioner is making Badru Kiggundu look smart. The appointed head this time around is the epitome of crony and loyal cadre. To such an extent that nothing he does is believable or trustworthy. His a blind servant of Museveni and that is his endgame too. To get a giant mansion and live of the perks of serving Yoweri. That is really it.

So, expect the stats to flustered and bamboozled. Expect the results to rigged, mismatched and even in perfect tandem. Just so one man and his loyal subjects get elected. So, that yet again he has a mandate and can get his Eight Term in Office.

I saw the same drill and games of results dropping in favour of Besigye in 2016. Saw the possible change and defiance strategy panning out. Where there was hope for change, but in the end Museveni went to Kololo and got sworn in. While foreign dignitaries and envoys all made it legit. Therefore, please… even if Bobi Wine and NUP is winning. Don’t expect the result to reflect that.

In the end… there will be raids of NUP headquarters and Bobi Wine’s home. Especially, at the offices of lawyers who plans to petition the courts. Anyone who collects copies of Declaration Forms and other data will be targeted. As the state will secure all evidence and proof of the actual results.

So, know that the game is happening now. Museveni is using the army, the police and everyone to ensure his prolonged reign. There will be injustice, will be more suffering and more hardships. This junta will use force and law enforcement to get their way. It is just a matter of time.

This have been most tragic, horrific and campaign with rampant impunity from the state. The authorities have attacked and misused their offices in all efforts to stop and stagnate the opposition. Therefore, the only good news from today is that the polling happen in peace. Where only a few incidents, but not a blood-shed. However, it is when the counting happens the issues spark.

That is what is worrying me. As now the game of crooks begins and how that plays out can be vicious. Because, that will be done in favour of one man and nothing else. Peace.

Brexit: Rees-Mogg’s Red Herring

Key thing is we’ve got our fish back. They’re now British fish and they’re better and happier fish for it”Jacob Rees-Mogg MP (14.01.2021)

Today in Parliament, the Tories and especially Brexiteer Jacob Rees-Mogg got on the defensive. As the Tories and the whole United Kingdom is starting to feel the effects of leaving the European Union (EU) and the hurdles the new Withdrawal Agreement puts in place. All these significant hurdles are passed onto the consumer and the exporters. The ones that was promised less red-tape and more “control”. Alas, that was all a lie from the Brexiteers, as they call it fear-mongering.

However, in the month of January, only mere weeks into the Brexit finalization and becoming a third country. The businesses, the fisheries and other companies are feeling the “new normal”. Already on the 7th January 2021 Seafood Scotland came out with a statement saying: “Scottish seafood exporters hit by a ‘perfect storm’. Where they explained it further: “It problems in France meant consignments were diverted from Boulogne sur Mer to Dunkirk, which was unprepared as it wasn’t supposed to be at export frontline”. The organization continues to say: “In a very short time we could see the destruction of a centuries old market which contributes significantly to the Scottish economy”.

So, just by wording a few sentences from Seafood Scotland. The fish doesn’t seem more happy by becoming pure “British”. I am sure that the Tories is having a “Finding Nemo” moment. As the lies and deception isn’t helping the fishing industry nor their new trouble to get seafood exported. The government wasn’t prepared for the new form of export and neither the possible cost. Therefore, the British seafood either got dumped or destroyed before it got to the European markets.

The Tories and Rees-Mogg can act a fool. However, he should stop the red herring. He knows perfectly well that the government released nearly right before the Agreement went into play on the 1st January 2021. They released new guidelines and proved how businesses could operate with examples on the 31st December 2020. So, it was not like the Seafood Industry was prepared and neither was the state.

Yes, you have gotten the fish back, but what value does it add if it ends up in the bin and not somebody’s table? That is waste and destruction of good wholesome produce, which is destroyed by some red-tape, which this government through agreements have made. Therefore, Brexit is causing more harm and more troubles then the industry could foresee. They we’re not warned in time and neither did the Tories give additional training to its border officers to secure every consignment.

That is why the statement of Rees-Mogg shows his arrogance, as he will not take responsibility for the damage caused. He wants to put a British Flag on the Fish, but he will not make sure it becomes Fish and Chips. No, he wants fish dead out of whatever and sing the national anthem to it. That is foolish and so is his pride. Instead, of taking accountability and finding measures. He wants patriotism to save the fish. That is really ridiculous and shows that his a proper hob-nob.

The Tories didn’t care about the fisheries or the fishing industry. They just used them as tool for their ends. That is why it’s not biting now and the fishermen isn’t catching a break. No, they are catching their fish and preparing it for shipment, but the government isn’t giving them the tools to secure the vessel to next port. No, they either blocking it or standing them at sea with nowhere to go. That is the sick reality here.

Maybe, the Scots to package the fish in the Union Jack and send the rotting fish directly to Rees-Mogg office. So, he could taste and smell his own medicine. The side-product of his politicking together with fellow Brexiteers. As his not personally hit by this, but him and others created the ‘Perfect Storm’. Therefore, he as one of the responsible for it. That he should taste some of the “British Fish” who got lost in red-tape and is now ready for a landfill. Peace.

Uganda Decides: Museveni working on overtime to ensure that nobody trusts the process…

Today, there been more reports of either slow opening of polling stations across the Republic. The Biometric Machines haven’t worked properly and slowed the voting. Polling stations has lacked ink to dip the fingers to prove the people has actually voted. There is little signs of trust. As there is reports of pre-ticked ballots and filled ballot boxes. That is from various of districts.

There is like the Electoral Commission and President Museveni is working in tandem to ensure one result no matter what. That is why NUP Polling Agents are arrested. FDC Polling Agents are arrested. ANT Polling Agents are arrested. In general, the eyes of the opposition is dismissed and stopped from entering the polling stations across the Republic. If they weren’t already arrested in the days ahead of the polls, which has happened by army and trucks in villages picking them up.

There are even districts where polling material haven’t arrived to the polling stations, hours after they were opened. In the same districts there reports of stolen equipment and this further questions the usage and the trust in the process. As they have it, but not giving it to the public to honour their will. No, they have stolen it to tick the ballots in favour of the regime.

It is bad enough that the Internet is off. That Social Media is blocked and only one entity is having open gateways. There are reports that Uganda Telecom is up. The Mango is working, because the EC and authorities needs it. However, MTN and Airtel is off.

There are even reports that polling officials have signed off Declaration Forms ahead of the polls for their Polling Station where they are stating that NRM candidates are winning it. That is happening while people are still waiting in line for their turn to actually vote.

This election is the worst and nothing proves to be trusted. Even with not to much deployment of soldiers and police officers at the polling stations at the moment. Expect more to come. As leaders will be house arrested and be in legal jeopardy soon.

This election is a fraud, a charade and as fake as it can be. There is no level of trust or reports of the state and EC even trying to convene fair elections. It is just a heartache and there will be justice here. Only a one man game and his cadres doing their tricks to get ahead.

We don’t even need to wait for the awaited results about 48 hours after the polling stations closes. Some started late and they should also be allowed to be open until the last voter has gone home. However, don’t expect that too happens. In many districts it started late not because of lack equipment, but because of the rain.

We just have to wait and see, but I’m awaiting worse than Kiggundu Math and other tricks to ensure the Mr. 1986 another term, his eight one actually. They will also secure the mandate and total control of the Parliament too. There will be a game to secure the NRM all power, yet again. That was to be anticipated. Peace.
