What sort of level of oppression can the National Resistance Movement (NRM) and how many Members of Parliament; How many opposition leaders and activists can the NRM detain before the public says it is enough? How many of their leaders can their torture with impunity and forge charges on before it matters?
President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni and the Security Organizations are now really misusing their power. As they have just twisted the people and the charges on the MPs. They are still charged with treason and awaiting trials, as the possible prolonged court cases are coming. The same has been shown with Dr. Kizza Besigye in the past, as well as other in his near sphere. Now, Robert Kyagulanyi are feeling the same sort of pain, together with Paul Mwiru, Gerald Karuhanga, Mubarak Munyagwa, Kassiano Wadri and the rest of Arua 33 whose awaiting trial. These are the latest people who are taken by the state, because the NRM suffered a defeating loss in the Arua By-Election. Something, the NRM and President couldn’t stomach.
While because of the riots in Kampala, Mukono, Mityana and in Jinja, there been at least 100 people detained during the aftermath of the elections and the Free Bobi Wine demonstrations. This been done with use of military force, police and also tear-gas, live-bullets and humiliating the public. That has been done systematically by the regime.
All of this is done, because of one man overstaying in power. Who has never had trouble using guns and ammunition to control the public. This will continue as the NRM will not give the power back to the people. They are having it and not interested to question it. The NRM are using all force, the Uganda People’s Defence Force (UPDF), Internal Security Organization (ISO), Chief of Military Intelligence (CMI), Special Force Command (SFC) and Uganda People’s Defence Force (UPDF). All this entities are supposed to be there to serve the public, but right now all of them seem to serve the President. The President are using all of these Security Organizations to control the population and not to secure them.
Therefore, the public have to ask themselves, if they accept all of this methods to use to suppress them. The people have to ask if they will allow the President and his party to misuse the trust and forgetting that they are supposed to be served. Not be afraid of the police, security organizations to be used as a shield to protect the president, but take secure the safety of public. Nevertheless, that isn’t the case. That is why the President is going after opposition leaders, not really trying to figure out or finding he ones behind the crimes done by the state. The civilians who demonstrate can be arrested or die by use of the army or other outfits.
The President are misusing and silencing the public with all of these units. That is why this is impunity, they are using the laws against the public, instead of trying to secure civilians, they could easily kill them if they are in the way and also take away their freedom. The lack of liberty and the impunity is at a rate it is foolish. This because the President and the NRM wants to rule.
The arrests and the detentions of these people are showing the lack of respect for justice. The lack of care for the torturing of civilians and even killings of innocent as result of it. All of the ones hurt by state, because one man who wants all power, as the rest of the people are paying the price. We just have to wonder how long the people will accept paying the price and seeing their leaders being detained, because they have the guts to question the legitimacy of Museveni. Peace.
