Museveni's NRM is already history

Vincent Nuwagaba

Comrades,
Please, don't ever waste your time and mental energies thinking of removing this dictatorship using guns. We are soon removing Museveni without firing a single shot. And by the way, even if we were to use guns, Museveni cannot defeat any organised group contrary to what some of you think that it would be playing into his hands.

True, Museveni has heavily invested in military arsenal but he has disappointed the military men and women so much so that when a serious battle breaks out, the rank and file in the UPDF and Police would point their guns at him not his opponents. Haven't you read in today's papers how NRM MPs thwarted the efforts by the opposition to have salaries of teachers, policemen, soldiers and prison warders enhanced. So why would you think the people Museveni and NRM are fighting would defend their very enemies. For some time now, I have been sensitising the police about their rights and I have often told them that their number one enemy is Museveni and their number 2 enemy is Kale Kayihura.
It's Museveni and Kayihura who makes the policemen earn a paltry sh260,000 a month when they work almost twenty four hours a day; it's Museveni and Kayihura who have kept the policemen in unipots which they share between two families; it is Museveni and Kayihura who have kept the senior officers in Asbestos thatched houses when it is clear that that is a health hazard.

Right now, policemen cannot afford university education for themselves and their own children; none of them can afford to take a girl friend to a good restaurant if they don't steal and I am investigating the source of money for those who have bought plots of land, vehicles and made lavish wedding ceremonies when they have been in the force for only three years and their monthly pay is 470,000. Stolen money cannot be said to have been earned.
I am sure that all the guns in the hands of the military, police, prisons and civilians will be turned against Uganda's enemy Museveni. However, we are soon winning the battle without firing a single shot. Thus, all we need is to urge the armed Ugandans to protect us because our cause is their cause. Long Live Uganda!
