Opinion: “Kabobi” lives rent free in Muhoozi’s mind…

“Kabobi tries to pretend that he is Bob Marley’s successor. First of all, Bob Marley sang legendary music! Bob Marley was a handsome Munyankore whose teeth were organised! Kabobi’s teeth are very disorganised!” – General Muhoozi Kainerubaga (17.12.2024).

Yet again, we must discuss the actions of the General and Chief of Defence Forces of the Uganda People’s Defence Force (UPDF) Muhoozi Kainerubaga who has yet again used his Twitter fingers and posted filth on his X account. FYI: He has blocked me there and I feel very honoured by it.

Nevertheless, there is more important things to discuss. We know the violations of the UPDF Act doesn’t matter in regards to Muhoozi. General Muhoozi is above the law and is one of the owners of the Republic. Even if he isn’t on the deed or has any paper work to substantiate the ownership. He still acts entitled to rule and be the next in-charge. That’s how he operates and he significantly thinks his beyond any sort of accountability, which is striking too.

That’s why he can mock and ridicule a fellow citizen. The official leader of the Opposition and the biggest threat to the ruling regime. That’s what his doing and he is despicable at it too. No sort of moral high ground or any sort of policy discussion for that matter. Just blatant disregard and refutable discourse which is worthy of no one.

We are just seeing the vindictiveness of the state. Gen. Muhoozi have no regard for Bobi Wine. This is no breaking news, but it showing his true colours here. The Patriotic League of Uganda (PLU) wants to be a serious outfit and a “party” for the future. However, they act as a unit of the National Resistance Movement (NRM) at the moment. The father is still having a say over the son. Nevertheless, we don’t know how long that last either.

Whatever there is to say. Is that KaBobi gives Muhoozi sleepless nights. They are grinding their teeth and are worried about his every action. That’s why they are trying to downplay him and act supreme over him. However, that is an hopeless enterprise when you come with nothing of substance in your attack of a fellow peer. No, Muhoozi is a violent brute who doesn’t know how to bring forward a cohesive message. Peace

Opinion: Mpuuga is now the second coming of Mao

“Mathias Mpuuga, the leader of the Democratic Alliance, has written to the National Resistance Movement (NRM) leadership seeking an opportunity to discuss Uganda’s transition plan. Mpuuga has emphasized that the National Resistance Movement’s views cannot be overlooked in the talks, given its more than 30 years in power” (NTV Uganda, 17.12.2024).

Who knew that someone wanted to emulate and become Norbert Mao in 2024? Maybe the Ministry and a High Office is refreshing. Maybe the years of being the Leader of the Opposition and such has given him the envelopes he now misses. That’s why he wants to return into good graces and be at the table with the mighty.

Mpuuga MP who has become leader of his own entity after running on others parties platforms. Now his scheduled to run on his own and together with allies from the DP Bloc that has created the Democratic Alliance. The one that made the Holy Alliance fall apart.

That’s where Mpuuga is residing after falling out with the National Unity Platform and earlier leaving the Democratic Party. This man has fled and left nothing behind in the parties, which he was a part of. That happens because of his choices and lack of accountability for his own actions.

It is just amazing that his running on a similar platform and road of ideas as Norbert Mao. Mao who later signed an agreement and became a minister. That’s the road that Mpuuga has now. I cannot see any other path…

Mpuuga and an ally will dine with dignitaries and the President at the State House. Where they sign an agreement and a joint communique between the Democratic Alliance and the National Resistance Movement (NRM). That’s what is up coming and the future of Mpuuga.

The Transition Plan and the reforms are the lessons that Mao spoke of, but ditched when he got into office. There is no real substantial plan or sufficient tools to secure the future for the Republic. The ones believing in Mpuuga is naïve. When we have seen how Mao spoke openly and later has fallen short.

Mpuuga MP is showing how he is a pawn and a useful idiot of the rulers. That his in their bidding and trying to find ways of getting favours. Because his just working for them and being vocal to ensure further longevity of the NRM. The DA is just a front for him to eat and find measures of possibly get DA officials elected on his behalf. Therefore, it is just sad and tragic.

Mathias Mpuuga is a sorry excuse of a man. He is now becoming Norbert Mao, and I wonder if he can see it himself. Peace.

A look into Bobi Wine’s statement: “On Gen. Museveni’s Statement Justifying Military Trials of Civilians”

Civilians must be tried in civilian courts, regardless of the accusations leveled against them. The Constitution of Uganda and international human rights law are clear on this point: military courts are for military personnel, not civilians” (Bobi Wine, 14.12.2024).

After the delusional statement of President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni on his dense defence of the civilians tried in a General Court Martial. His defence was just bonkers and had little weight behind the reasoning to continue the practice. Alas, now the Party President of the Opposition Party, National Unity Platform (NUP), Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine released his public statement in response. This will be discussed and needs to be shed lights on. As the General Court Martials needs to be used to whip the enlisted or the soldiers who acts ill in-action, but not as a tool of oppression, which it is used for in this day and age.

Of course his statement comes at the backdrop of the citizens’ outcry and demand that the Supreme Court puts a final end to the trial of civilians in military courts. By issuing that statement, he is intimidating the court and certainly trying to influence their ruling- or trying to ensure that they do not deliver that ruling at all! In his desperate bid to cling to power, Museveni has made the military an instrument of oppression instead of defense. His claims that the kangaroo court martial system is about stabilizing the country are outright lies meant to mask his regime’s naked abuse of power and intimidate the people of Uganda into submission” (Bobi Wine, 14.12.2024).

Here the reality is addressed, the Opposition Leader is speaking his peace. The truth is shed light on and the means to an end. The Military Courts are there for one reason, but is used for another one. These are tools of oppression and put the people into submission. Everyone can see it and Bobi Wine only speaks facts here.

Bobi Wine continues:

Trying civilians in military courts is not only illegal—it is dangerous. It creates a system where no one is safe. Today, it is opposition political leaders and activists. Tomorrow, it could be you, your family, or your neighbor falling victim. This is not justice—it is oppression! The Museveni regime thrives on fear, lies, and division. But we, the people of Uganda, know the truth. We know that his kangaroo court martial is not about stabilizing the country but about stabilizing his grip on power. We must reject it” (Bobi Wine, 14.12.2024).

This is just who the authorities are and how the power is used in the Republic. The state of affairs is the usage of force and intimidation. That’s how the NRM and the President has been able to stay in power for so long. As people are fearing to speak out or demonstrate. As they rather go along on their business, instead of dying or being tortured for acting against the oppressors. That’s how a violent oppressive government is keeping the people at a choke-hold and calling it “peaceful”.

Bobi Wine drops words of wisdom right here:

We must reject the narrative that oppression and injustice are necessary for stability. True stability can only be achieved through upholding the rule of law, respecting human rights, and making a commitment to justice for all” (Bobi Wine, 14.12.2024).

This here is speaking out towards the ones that is accepting this nature of things and the status quo, as it is better with the devil you know versus the devil that is to come. It is better to support a friendly benevolent dictator, instead of a proper statesman in office. That’s the ones that is accepting the plight and suffering in the name of “stability”. This will sooner or later fail and people will revolt. Therefore, the idea of allowing injustice will sooner or later cause more harm. The usage of military court against civilians is just one of plenty of the things the NRM and Museveni does wrong towards its citizens. However, it is the hot-potato at the moment.

Bobi Wine spoke facts here and he acknowledge the bleak reality. A scenario and a state of affairs that needs to end. Nevertheless, as long as Museveni is in power. These sorts of practices will persist, as it is a gift that keeps on giving. These sorts of actions are keeping his administration alive and allowing him to reign supreme. That’s why the President and Commander-in-Chief will continue to use it and defend it. Peace.

Opinion: Mpuuga renames a briefcase party into the Democratic Alliance

In a shocking move, plans to transform Dr. Abed Bwanika’s People’s Development Party into the Democratic Alliance have allegedly been finalized. A source who preferred anonymity claims plans to hold a delegate’s conference of PDP and resolve the name and communicate to the Electoral Commission, the way the National Unity Platform did” (NBS Television, 07.12.2024).

Yesterday, the former Leader of Opposition Mathias Mpuuga launched his civic organization that will turn into a political party, the Democratic Alliance (DA). That is what is happening and the DP Bloc is dancing along. Meaning the People’s Development Party (PDP) and the Social Democratic Party (SDP) will either cease to exist or be part of it. As the DP Bloc has to become it.

Not like the PDP or the SDP of Mabikke had any suction or sincere approach nationally. The DP Block and the YDP reunion revitalized the Democratic Party. Now the former DP leaders are going under one arrow and becoming another entity on the outside of the DP party. People who has worked together and now becomes allies yet again.

It is funny if this happens… because Bwanika couldn’t become an MP on his own party ticket. He wasn’t able to get elected by his own party. Abed Bwanika needed the National Unity Platform (NUP) and the same was with Mpuuga MP too. This is why him and others left their former parties to join the NUP.

Now they are leaving the NUP and becoming the DA. This is bound to become a failure. Not only the lack of creativity and bad messaging from the onset. They are targeting the NUP and the leadership of the opposition. That’s what they did and they aren’t being a sincere alternative. However, that isn’t shocking anyone.

Nevertheless, the likes of Michael Kasibante, Juliet Nakakande, Michael Mabikke and Abed Bwanika isn’t a winning formula. It is a reason why they are stalwarts and isn’t able to create any sort of urgency for their political futures. No, they are awaiting the right turn and hoping this is their time to eat.

It is really special that Joseph Kabulate dodged a bullet and salvaged his future not being part of this. As he wants to be an honest fellow, but he will do it by his own self. Which is much harder and this is why the others are joining hands. Because they know they need each other and cannot gain any sort of relevance alone.

That the DA is made out of the PDP is a failure from the onset. They are reviving a briefcase and hoping it will become the launching pad. Nevertheless, there isn’t much hope in this. This party is bound to go up into thin air and infighting. This party is based on loose principles and lack of moral codes. That’s why they are gathering together in greed, which they hope this will sufficiently served with this unification.

To change the bumper-sticker on a briefcase doesn’t change the fact it is a briefcase with a new bumper-sticker. It doesn’t magically change the organization or the people behind it. Only that Mpuuga is now the head of it all and his sudden movement is apparently an revival. Alas, it didn’t feel like this yesterday and certainly not today.

Mpuuga MP should regret all of this. Whoever is advising him or whoever that is in his ear. They need to be enlighten. He should have taken it on the chin and been loyal to the NUP. That could have saved his career, but now we are at a wake. We can just order the casket and get the priest ready for the sermon. Because this is dead and ready to be announced as deceased by a fatal blow. Peace.

Opinion: Bobi Wine needs to stand firm

There are so many sharks waiting for blood. It is so many people awaiting for his downfall. Even more people who are ready to take his spot and eat of meat that is left on the bones. Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine is under fire. His feet is burning, but in reality he should just keep his head high and continue as it goes. Because if he wavers or looks weak. That’s when his enemies will strike him even harder.

Right now with the defection of people to the Democratic Alliance (DA) and the possible loss of Mathias Mpuuga MP. He might lose Abed Bwanika MP and few others who are associated with the former Leader of Opposition. Fellow journeymen who came from the Democratic Party (DP) and was allies of Mpuuga before the creation of the NUP. That is all natural. We can all see it coming and we shouldn’t shed tears over them.

No, the People Power Movement and the National Unity Platform needs to resolve and move on. It needs to show its true character and continue to push its dogma to the people. As people have been using it to eat and be part of the red wave. Plenty of people joined as they saw Bobi Wine and his party as a launching pad for own political careers. If not they used the party revive their dead careers and getting ahead. Therefore, it is time to invest in the activists and the grassroot leaders who are steadily building from the ground-up. Those are the assets ahead and not the popular MPs shifting parties ahead of polls. These can easily betray and only doing it to be re-elected and not really believing in the party they become flag-bearers for.

That’s what we are seeing. Bobi Wine need to stay calm and collected. He needs his team to assess things ahead and not only go on country tours. He needs to revitalize the centre and fortify the positions which will echo the sentiments of the population. That’s what the NUP needs to do and fast. As the elections of 2026 is already settled and the NRM is already using pawns to weaken the strongholds of the opposition. That’s what it does and it hopes to hurt the NUP in their counties that they have fought hard to win.

This is why the NUP needs to regain and re-issue its package. They need to show the need and urgency of the party. The party built on sacrifice and cost of fighting the dictatorship. The NUP needs to show its face and face the music too. They will be pushed and be ridiculed. That happened today from the Democratic Alliance (DA) but that isn’t necessarily true.

Bobi Wine needs to act and needs to be direct. There is a need for a clear and subtle message. Showing the people who are betraying the party. That these has to go. There is no need for journeymen and people using the party as a launching pad. The ones who are deflecting to DA or the Patriotic League should just go. They cannot be part of the idea or the party itself. These people have to go. They should be shown the door and be left behind. These people decided to go against their own party on their own behalf. Therefore, it is time to patch the hurt and accept the damage it possibly would cause.

The DA and PLU are threats to the NUP. Everyone single party are in direct competition with the NUP. That is the part of the game and the bargain of multi-party democracy. Even if the NRM is rigging and using the state machinery to have the majority regardless of who is on the ballot. That we know…

Nevertheless, Bobi Wine to be transparent and act with sense here. Show bravery and be vocal about the steps ahead. Because he shouldn’t look soft or be baffled. No, he needs to step up and be genuine, which we have seen before. He has stood tall in the midst of trouble and nothing positive coming his way. His been through much worse already, but now he can manifest his difference from others and prove them why his party matters. That’s what he needs to do and I know he can do it. Peace.

Opinion: A Journey-Man creates his own home [with his new Democratic Alliance]

We want to redefine our politics. I can see a lot of young people here who have dreams; this Democratic Alliance is your home” – Mathias Mpuuga MP (06.12.2024).

The ones believing the former Leader of Opposition Mathias Mpuuga MP in 2024 is astonishing. His a project and someone must have invested heavily in him. As his on yet another journey and creating another venture. That is happening ahead of the next General Elections. Instead of acting as an alternative to the National Resistance Movement (NRM). All talks and shots was called against the former Presidential Candidate and Party President of the National Unity Platform (NUP) Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine.

When that is the sole objective and the works. That make it seems like there is another story to be told. Like they are doing this with a purpose. The former journeymen who joined the NUP and is now creating the DA. Together with the DP Bloc that wasn’t a part of the 2021 Elections together with the NUP. As those negotiations and talks didn’t go nowhere.

Now the same briefcase parties and same individuals who are stalwarts on the outside of the political spectrum are using their little leverage to boost Mpuuga. To make Mpuuga look like the coming king. When he isn’t even a prince or a custodian servant in a royal court. They call him “owek” but that is only out of courtesy. Let’s be real about that and we all know it.

In a few months the DA (Democratic Alliance) will transform into a political platform and will sponsor candidates at all levers including the President” (Mpuuga, 06.12.2024).

We have seen other splinters and fractions that has failed. The only good thing for Mpuuga and his merry men is that they have time ahead of the polls. The people and the team boosting the ego of Mpuuga. They got years to organize and create something. These people can build something and at least a functioning headquarters and possibly hold some functions to build some sort of following. Alas, that will be hard outside the electoral roadmap and without the blessings of the authorities.

We have seen the likes of the Alliance of National Transformation (ANT) of (rtd) Gen. Mugisha Muntu and his fellow allies. The ANT had much more promise and Muntu is vastly respected politician. A man of code and who has his manners of operating as an individual. That man is a epitome of leadership and trustworthiness compared to Mpuuga. Sadly he didn’t gain seats in Parliament, but is slowly building up his party after deflecting from the Forum for Democratic Change (FDC).

When we have seen the likes of Muntu and now seeing Mpuuga. There isn’t much hope in the saga of leaving the NUP. The NUP and Bobi Wine has the party, they have the agenda and the dogma they abide by. Something that Mpuuga and his allies has dismissed as they went on their own potholed adventure into the wilderness. This will be bumpy and will be testy.

Tragically as Mpuuga uses the name of the Mbabazi and Go Forward electoral coalition, the Democratic Alliance (DA). The TDA wasn’t a winning formula and it didn’t deliver the operation or the successive election that Mbabazi sought after. Instead it was a depleting and fatigued campaigned ending in flatlined result. Which later has ended in Mbabazi cosying back up with the President and becoming a trusted man again. Just like Gilbert Bukenya returned and others has done too.

Mpuuga is using the DA before the 2026. His using the party name that echoes Mbabazi. His only losing “Go Forward” and having the bird. We don’t know what he stands for or what he will defend. Other than Mpuuga doesn’t mind the hustling and misuse of power for personal gains. That we know… and we have seen it. He won’t relent and is happy to be associated with just that.

That isn’t a sign of a trusted leader, but of a selfish one that will trade away his codes for a pay-check. For a State House and a greedy Parliament that is a fitting character, but for a populace of impoverishment and lacking government services. That is the opposite of what they need. So his talking of dreams, but he will serve them nightmares. Peace.

Opinion: Mpuuga is now launching the Democratic Alliance [is he reviving the TDA?]

This is unique in a sense of the former Deputy of the National Unity Platform and previous Leader of the Opposition (LoP) Mathias Mpuuga are now launching his new political platform which is deemed to be called the Democratic Alliance.

That is really compelling as the DP-Bloc are now rebranding and possibly becoming the Democratic Alliance. The name which is like the opposition coalition that Mpuuga was a part of as a Democratic Party member and candidate in 2016. He was campaigning with the DP for the TDA (The Democratic Alliance) and Go Forward back in the day. Now his reviving it in 2024. However, now it isn’t a political coalition to deter and be the alternative to National Resistance Movement (NRM). Now it is the vehicle and the party behind his own candidacy.

Mpuuga is there with Abed Bwanika and other scorned or idle brief-case party leaders who are now ushering in the newcomer. That’s what they are busy doing. Building a new formation and a new party out of grievances with the old ones. As they were suspended and working against the grain within the system, they took part in.

So, the journeymen and people looking for the next meal-ticket is now creating their own party. The Democratic Alliance… the TDA or DA. A new outfit out of the Democratic Party Bloc or the DP Bloc. A new one that failing ahead of the 2026 General Elections.

The ones believing the sincerity of Mpuuga in 2024 and ahead of 2026 is naïve. His already proven himself and shown his character. This man is in it to eat and use the ticket to feast on the state reserves. That what he intends to do and his proud of the fact too. That’s why he took the money and went running. Instead of accepting the issues and following party line regards to the “service award”. Alas, the service award was more important than principal or any sort of dogma. Because his own self sacrifice is worthy of such a vast sum for representing his constituency.

The DP Bloc clearly lacks, direction, vision and what it aspires to be. As it seeking more guidance and leadership with Mpuuga. That’s why Kabuleta left the Holy Alliance and felt betrayed by the DP Bloc itself. As it is steering towards one man and his political ambitions. Instead of building on whatever principles the Holly Alliance agreed upon. Alas, that is the common scenario here.

The DP Bloc brief-case parties and stalwarts are looking for the next thing to make them vibe with the public. They hope Mpuuga can gain that trust and use his formula. As he has been able to get traction and follow whatever wave that is there. Therefore, he is now seeking to change this, but everyone is forgetting that his partly damaged goods now.

Mpuuga MP isn’t a trusted man. His not a sought after leader or a politician. No, he haven’t even cleverly or with wisdom addressed the concerns of the 500 million shillings service award. Other than trying to dodge a bullet and create his own new political platform. That is running away from office and not accepting the consequences of being in office. Alas, what a leader is supposed to do, but apparently doesn’t do.

The Coordinator of A4C has become what he warned that MPs had become. A corrupt and selfish leader. A man who are there for own personal interests and now his starting his own DA. The new Democratic Alliance. The DA on the ashes of the TDA. Soon his Going Forward again too and will ask Mbabazi for advice as well. Peace.

Uganda Police Force (UPF): Halting of NUP Mobilization Tours Across the Country (15.11.2024)

Opinion: Bobi Wine hits a nerve…

“But today in Uganda, even if you are as stupid as Museveni’s son. Even if it don’t work. They have their slaves, their slaves are you. I want us to come together end this slavery. I’m saying this because you, because this country belongs to all of us. The man and the women, the young and the old. The rich and the poor. The black and the brown. Very very finally, I want to promise you… my brothers and sisters, that this is not a dream, I am not dreaming, I’m talking about is happening here” – Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine in Soroti (09.11.2024).

We know…

We know…

We know…

Should we say it again or do we need to repeat it. The saga continues and things aren’t changing. Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine is speaking a fact. It has hit a nerve. That we know because the Patriotic League of Uganda (PLU) has addressed it.

We knew that this would cause a stir. They would say his reckless and uses the wrong language. Nevertheless, his only as diplomatic and sincere as the National Resistance Movement (NRM). They are even harsher… and more disrespectful against their adversaries.

The bleak reality is that Gen. Muhoozi Kainerubaga is part of the system and has enriched himself true it. He is such embedded into the state machinery that laws aren’t in effect. He has a political outfit and a civic pressure group that is become the loudest group of the NRM. That’s while being an army commander and in disregard to the codes of the UPDF Act. Therefore, there is no way anyone can conquer that supremacy.

Gen. Kainerubaga cannot show his finesse, leadership or abilities, his only there on the merits of who his father is. The general isn’t there because he worked hard or was a man of wisdom. That’s why the people can disdain him and call him out. He went out there… and now he gets the public scrutiny.

The PLU have reacted to calling their master and standby generator “stupid” but they aren’t going hard on the “slavery”. The mentality shows where the PLU and the NRM have left people behind. The NRM and PLU are brothers in combat. They are entangled and are a part of the same thing. These aren’t separate entities. No, they are connected and work for the same goal. Therefore, the reality is a short statement about where the state has failed the people.

Most of the people haven’t gotten better over the 40 years in power. Neither has government programs or policies made a massive change for the future generations. They are at the same point as the children of bush-war generation is now entering office. These people have seen the parents not making changes, but only continued a status quo. The status quo that the NRM wants to keep.

So, we know, we know and Muhoozi should wise up. His being called stupid for a reason. He lacks charisma and the swagger the nation expects. There is nothing in his mannerisms and his attitude that shows his eager or even have the character to carry the weight of a public office. It is just entitlement and arrogance. That’s all we see and hear.

Bobi Wine is maybe not polished here and speaking out of his heart. That hurts the pride of the PLU/NRM. However, they need to hear it, and this wouldn’t have been told. If other people of the patronage would speak. Peace.

Opinion: Among better answer for her tribalism…

Then better make sure that those baganda don’t get numbers!” – Speaker Anita Among (24.10.2024).

Yesterday’s Plenary Session has exposed how the Speaker of the 11th Parliament, Anita Among operates. It was a moment that was supposed to be held in silence and her microphone was meant to be muted. Regardless, we are seeing how she targets and are going after certain groups of Members of Parliament.

The honourable speaker is showing her tribalism. Where she has picked up one group of MPs and where they are from. This is going to far. It wouldn’t be right if she did this against the Acholi, Langi or whoever else either. Right now we are just discussing this because it is targeted against the Baganda MPs.

The ones that are from the Central Region or the Baganda Kingdom. The ones that are elected from a variety of districts surrounding the capital. That’s who the Speaker spoke ill about and wanted them to not know about the situation.

The Speaker isn’t impartial in the affairs either, but the ones directing and taking the shots. She is pushing the legislation and isn’t the one overseeing it. No, she is taking her hands into the cookie-jar to ensure the legislation is pushed through the house. The Speaker don’t care how and what it takes, as long as she serves the interests of the State House. This is why she goes to this length and is willing to take shots at others.

The bill itself isn’t important in this regard, because she is just doing the bidding of the Head of State. She is a marionette in this game and it’s telling. That’s why she’s kept there and is allowed to be despicable at it.

It is just really telling that someone is speaking like this and at her office. In other places she would have to resign and been replaced. However, we know that won’t happen here. She is serving a purpose and that’s why she’s allowed to do whatever.

Speaker Among should consider herself and her role. This is disrespectful and beneath her station. She should know better, but we everyone is supposed to apologize to her and ask for forgiveness. Meanwhile she can act as a thief and disingenuous as she wants. Nevertheless, anyone else doing that in “her” house would get into trouble.

Speaker Among should retract and consider her office, but we know she won’t, because she is shielded by the State House. She will get off and live another day. Like yesterday never happened. Peace.
