The NRAs for twenty years criminalized civil opposition.
Political parties were only permitted to operate at Headquarters. This weakened civil opposition for descent people like Dons of Makerere University couldn’t risk security brutality. As a result,
the NRAs now lead opposition. People like Lukwago are admirable for their confrontation with NRA.
Civil opposition like Dr Semogereres are getting extinct.
People like Hon Wafula and Olaru Otunu were guerrillas against Amin.
Wafula and Chapaa Karuhanga were active NRA syndicates against Obote. These are NRA and FRONASA cousins. They are therefore not civil.
The NRA having seized State institutions rushed to seize the business arms of the state.
These were State corporations.
They captured them under the cover of privatization. The subsequent stage is therefore the manufacture of an NRA middle class. Its an artificial middle class. Its premised on looting the state and therefore cannot be the prima of economic transformation. You never transform the economy on the foundation of crime. This presents a major contradiction because NRA purports to be the shield of democracy and freedom. Democracy goes with free enterprise. The tragedy nevertheless is that those who are looting society dominate both political and military space in society. They are bribing Churches and cultural institutions to legitimize themselves.
They cant permit an election of the masses who are conscious. That’s why you cant freely hold assemblies in the rural areas.Those who loot the peasants cant be content on being guarded by the conscious children of the unconscious exploited peasants. They therefore use their children and close relatives as their immediate guards read detail.. The outer guards are either the un conscious or conscious children of the exploited peasants. The outer ring that is conscious would eventually throw out this artificial criminal class. All the swag is destroyed with them too. This has been true with Libya, Syria and Iraq.
