A stray-bullet for your thoughts!

You don’t need no gun control, you know what you need? We need some bullet control. Men, we need to control the bullets, that’s right. I think all bullets should cost five thousand dollars… five thousand dollars per bullet… You know why? Cause if a bullet cost five thousand dollars there would be no more innocent bystanders.”Chris Rock

There is time to recollect our minds and be washed away in the blunders of the past. There are enough issues to grasp. It isn’t just a mere, free the Members of the Parliament, Free the Arua 33 and the activists taken by the authorities. Also the continued purge on the ones in and around Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine. All of the MPs deserves to remembered, as their lack of freedom, needs to be addressed, this is for Kassiano Wadri, Francis Zaake, Mubarak Munyangwa and Gerald Karuhanga. All of these as mentioned are still bound by the state for various of charges and because the President can do this.

What we need is to look at the stray-bullets too. The ones that isn’t hitting the targets directly, but are still killing. The reality where the state is really attacking the possibility to gather as the Joint Communique from the Security Organizations even banned protests and demonstrations. Even if the ones bringing the violence and the killing is the state. They are the ones with the live-ammunition and the ones who are in-charge of it. Therefore, the ones dying during and after the demonstrations are most likely casualties or targets done by the state.

That is why the unfortunate deaths of innocent citizens are showing the lack of care. Just as much as the state are arresting people without warrants, charges or keeping them detained for months before even putting them to trial. That is what the state does to its political prisoners. This shows the lack of mercy and lack of procedure. If not they are scrapping following certain laws, because they are not part of the National Resistance Movement (NRM), therefore, deserves another set of rules of law.

That is why we should worry of all the stray-shots, even if that is a spin. As the soldiers, the Special Force Command and other outfits are really trying to intimidate and show the world that the Ugandan lives are not valued by the state. They are just someone they are randomly hit. They are acting like the soldiers are not trained and just pulling the trigger purposeless.

That is what bothers me, is the narrative they are spinning with this. That they are just killing people incidentally. That is insulting to the families of the deceased. The Authorities are really just saying, that the shot was done accidental. So, if that was really the case, why are there lacking open investigations into the usage of bullets by the state?

Because, the state has promised to investigate into the torture and damage done on journalists, but will they look into the killings and use of guns? Or is that just something they do, because they can? There is no consequence for the state to use stray-bullets on people?

That is why the authorities and the state has to stop use of live-bullets when engaging with citizens. There should be other ways of dealing with protesters that doesn’t turn fatal. That should be a “no-no”. But in the mind of Museveni and his kind, it is a “go-go”.

Stop, the stray-bullets narrative has to die, because a soldier and trained military personnel actually AIMS! Peace.

Museveni now claims the arrested MPs was misbehaving!

We have crimes in towns, the many boda bodas, vehicles crowding in the City and the errant politicians beating up innocent women. The errant politicians are being handled by the law. We also have the CCTV cameras being installed in the city to tame all these criminals” (Yoweri Kaguta Museveni on 24th August 2018).

That President Yoweri Kaguta Musveni calls Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine, Mubarak Munyanga, Patrick Mwiru, Kassiano Wadri, Michael Mabikke, Gerald Karuhanga and Francis Zaake. All of these men are the ones he is mentioning, he might not saying their names, but saying the MPs handled by the law. Are these men, therefore, we know he means this.

To be errant means to be misbehaving, move about aimlessly or staying outside the proper path. When Museveni says this, is that they move on the outside of his circle, they are not following his guidance and his principles. Even if his jaded vision, his mental fatigue is evident. There are clearly the mature way of understanding this man of advanced age.

That Museveni says this and alleges this, shows how immature he is and how belittling he is. That he blames them and thinks it is enough to be handled by the law. The law that fits these errant men, but not him. As he doesn’t have to answer for ordering the Special Force Command to kill and quell the crowds with live-bullets. That is not errant and not wrong, but going outside of the one-man vision of him, that is directly criminal.

It is futile to say this to Museveni. His jaded vision is so blurry, that he cannot see right or wrong. Because he is the almighty who can do whatever he wants without any consequence. However, as long as you are in the way of him, you will taste the justice and the law. That is what the arrested errant MPs.

You don’t need to be bright to get the picture. The snap is right there. The President can try to forge charges, juice up the stats, but the reality will be the same. He is trying to make a mirage appear in the desert, but that is not happening. Not today and not tomorrow, except for the types of Mwenda, Opondo and Wanyama. The rest of us, see and shake our heads.

Errant Politicians? Political Indiscipline, the indiscipline is because they are not following you and being your subjects, but actually thinking human beings. Whose not your tin-soldiers to move around like you please. Get your act to together. Peace.

Reuters Africa Letter to General David Muhoozi on investigation and treatment of James Akena (24.08.2018)

The State has started a purge on Bobi Wine’s friends!

If you ever knew the price of going against a tyranny or against a dictatorship. You know it now, the National Resistance Movement (NRM) and President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni. That Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine has hit the heart of the dictatorship is now evident. As the Security Outfits are going in plain-clothes and arresting his friends at night.

Last night at around 1AM at Red Pocket Pub, unknown and plain-clothed men arrested Eddie Mutwe aka Ssebuffu Eddy. Whose Bobi Wine’s friend and bodyguard. He was taken without any warrant or any legal reason.

During this morning, Bobi Wine’s DJ David Bwanika was taken from his home. Therefore, there are now searching for anyone in and around Bobi Wine. They are now really surely soon arresting the FireBase Studios artists, as they have done before as well. Since they want to punish Bobi Wine a little extra.

Not only give him forged charges, but also go against his friendships and business-partners. That is what is happening now. The ones associated with Bobi Wine is the state having a purge on. They are not random selected people, but people connected to Bobi Wine. That is why this is deliberate and well-planned by the security outfits. As they know whose around and associated with him. This has been well known, as the artist and performer of Bobi Wine’s stature has had his circle in the media. Therefore, the arrests today, is to prove at what cost it has to go against the dictatorship.

Bobi Wine and the Arua 33 is bad enough. The tortured and the detained Members of Parliament, the citizens after the By-Election. All of them deserves justice, while the state continues to offer more injustice.

We are just seeing a purge on the associates and friends of Bobi Wine. Just like we have seen the security outfits done to other activists in the past. They are following a pattern of vicious attacks on the population. Especially the ones that questions and have ability to spark resistance. Peace.

Dr. Kizza Besigye – Release Bond (23.08.2018)

Groundhog Day: Liberation from Prison for Besigye!

Yet again, the Police have released Dr. Kizza Besigye as they arrested him in his home this morning. As he was supposed to go to Gulu and attend the Court for Robert Kyagulanyi case. This he was barred from entering. As the state blocked and stopped most of the hardliners within the Opposition. That was done with others.

But now we know, that Besigye is left by the gates of home in Kasangati, Wakiso. Therefore, he is free. Without we’re knowing the reason for the arrest, charges or even warrants. He was just taken from his home, because the authorities can and the Police was ordered so from above high.

This day is just another day of impunity and criminality of the state, as they are making it illegal to opposition and making their lives hard. Because of their affiliation. That shows how the President and National Resistance Movement has to silence people.

They are so afraid of Besigye voice, as well as they are afraid of Bobi Wine. As both of them has shown their popularity and their message to the people has reacted too.

Besigye is really a sour thumb for the government. As they have to detain him, because he exists and because he could light a fire. A fire that the government are afraid it couldn’t contain. Just as they have seen what the young politician Bobi Wine could do as well. Now both of them have been charged with treason by this regime. That shows that these two are politicians that brings the fear of the state.

Besigye should be allowed to leave his home. Besigye shouldn’t have to go through this. No one should be arrested at their home, without charges or without warrants. That is just showing how insane the Police and NRM are at this point. Peace.

Opinion: NRM Apologist stop the charade, it is just tiring!

Let me be clear, this is just my tiredness of trying to evaluate and explain the pains of a Republic, that has been oppressed and taken for granted by the State House in Entebbe. Where the government and authorities have forgotten their mission and their role. Where the Security Organizations and the state is instead of serving, it is self-serving for the President and his cronies. The role of the state is finding ways for the elite to eat and keep the machinery pumping. Not trying to make the state better or service delivery worth a damn. That boat has left the harbour a long time ago.

Now, as the arrests, detaining MPs and the machine of killing innocents are in the middle of center stage. The apologists hops around like hot fire and blaming the opposition, like they are all to blame. Besigye deserves to be arrested in his home, he just send the radicals at the police. Bobi Wine needs to be detained, because his ghetto youths will just kills soldiers. Even if none of that has ever happen. They are blamed for the ills of society, but the monopoly of guns, arms and tear-gas is of the state. So the discussion, should be how the state uses their authority to quell the public.

That is why I am tired of the state machinery, the misconduct and the alternative reality the state apparatus is living in. They are at a such a state, they are trying to deflect the realities, they are trying to forge a narrative where the opposition is the problem, when the state itself makes the issues. It is not Robert Kyagulanyi who charged himself and put himself in prison. It is not Francis Zaake who hurt himself and dropped himself off at the Rubaga Hospital. Not like Kassiano Wadri has put the bracelets on himself. Neither, did any of the others over the last put themselves in this place. This was done deliberately by government and their military outfits. They didn’t jump into the paddy-wagons just for the hell-off-it.

That is why I am tired, because we know this and they know this. They are just washing their hands of this dirt. Trying to spoil the milk and make sure the people are pouring it out. Without even tasting or checking the thickness of the milk. That is what is up and also what is going down.

The lies of the state can continue, but that doesn’t make it more true. The way it tries to put deceptions, try to steer the conversations, blow out windows or windshields, make powerful stones break bulletproof glass. Is only things that can happen with a regime, like the NRM. That is why there are always something hidden and untold, something the President and the regime tries to hide. As they are trying to make innocent people into villains. Making sure Kizza Besigye and Bobi Wine are the arch-nemesis of Museveni.

Let the charade stop… let the reality sink in, forged charges and a populations being pawns in a struggle to continue to rule, which never stops until the last of breathe of one man. Who will use everyone and succeed everyone to stay there. Peace.

Opinion: How much impunity can the NRM and Museveni get away with?

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.

DPP Chibita letter to Lt. Gen. Andrew Guti on dropping gun charges on Bobi Wine but move him to High Court (22.08.2018)

Bobi Wine and the Opposition will have a long walk to FREEDOM: State Sponsored Oppression continues!

Today is start of a long journey, the ones celebrating that Bobi Wine got freed from Military Custody, celebrated to early. His journey to freedom is far from over. They will prolong his stay within in the legal system, as long as they can. Just like did to Gen. Moses Ali or even countless charges put on Kizza Besigye. Robert Kyagulanyi and the others will be in the Court system for ages, until the state finally drops it. When they have to get new charges for new crimes. That is what the National Resistance Movement (NRM) and President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni does to opposition. This is a play we have seen again. The tortured and arrested MPs, will still be in custody and await trials, as the cases are push forward for further discovery or whatever needs the state has at any given moment.

While that has happen. Here is re-cap of what that has happen.

In the early morning as Dr. Kizza Besigye was planning to leave his home in Kasangati, Wakiso. He was taken away by unknown men, as he later surfaced in Mukono District at the Naggalama Police Station. Detained by the authorities.

The message from Besigye before he was taken: “Every way out of my home is barricaded since very early today. The intention is to deny us freedom to move and to be at the Military Court where MP Robert Kyagulanyi is to be produced this morning. The struggle for freedom and sovereignty won’t be blocked! Museveni Must Go” (Dr. Kizza Besigye, 23.08.2018).

While Erias Lukwago, the lawyer representing Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine. Which was set for Military Court Martial in Gulu today. He has been put under house-arrest by the authorities today.

Ingrid Turinawe have also been put under house-arrest by the authorities as well.

While the Director of Public Prosecution Mike Chibita has written to the Lt Gen Andrew Guti to drop the gun charges against Bobi Wine, Kassiano Wadri and the 28 other suspects. In the letter to Court Martial, he also asked the case to moved from the military courts to the civil courts.

While Bobi Wine was freed for a hot minute from the Gulu Military Court, he was re-arrested on similar charges as before of illegal procession and for treason. Therefore, he will have to answer in a civil High Court instead of a Military Court. He is remanded into custody until the 30th August 2018. He was on crutches and struggling to walk in the Court Martial today. He will be in Gulu Main Prison until next court date and be put back in Makindye Military Barracks. So, he was re-charges against at the Gulu Magistrate Court today and therefore, the case will continue.

What we have learned today, is that the government and authorities are still working overtime to silence and stop the opposition from having space. As Besigye has to behind bars, Lukwago has to be house-arrested and not allowed to represent his client. Neither is the like of Turinawe allowed to go out.

The NRM are really just showing their lack of tolerance, freedom and liberty for anyone else than the President. Who can call out everyone by name and say they are inciting violence, while his state sponsored violence can address anyone. He can arrest and detain anyone at the snap of his fingers. That is why Besigye is behind bars, Lukwago blocked and Turinawe blocked. While Bobi Wine is just moved from the military to the civic one. He is still in legal jeopardy, just another place than before.

The rest are still charged with treason, even if the gun-charges are taken away, while the forged destruction of the Presidential Convoy continues. As the President had to swing by to check if they followed his orders. Peace.
