The NRM Government has wired UGX 130,000,000 (130Millions) to each MP to buy personal cars! I am waiting to see the so-called patriotic FDC MPs like Ibrahim Ssemuju Nganda reject this tax payers’ money or we boycott them like the ‘Tubonga nawe’ artistes who he said received tax payers money! Why should a sane opposition MP accept 130M from tax payers to buy a personal car when we have over 400 cancer patients on death-bed! Why can’t they practice what they preach? How different are they from NRM counterparts they have been opposing? Or when it comes to issues of personal enrichment there is no opposition? (NB: I look forward to a civilised debate of this and will return abuses in the same measure)
August 18, 2016 at 5:33 pm #27006Finally this Muna food Rolex approved and confirmed by the government as a national food and tourist attraction. But I would like to learn how Rolex is gonna be a tourist attraction.
August 18, 2016 at 5:36 pm #27008As long as power is concentrated in the hands of the few, the institutions will serve those few, says opposition leader Kizza Besigye.
Besigye was last week appearing on Radio One FM 90 and Radio Two (Akaboozi) to tackle the question of police brutality.
Besigye said he actually sympathises a lot with police officers who he termed as “humble Ugandans in uniform”, noting that some of them get into the police to do a decent work.
“My optimism and expectation of a promising future is based on changing the power structures. The citizens are gaining more and more power and once the power balance tilts and the people gain power then leaders.”
Ailing economy
Asked what he thought ails the Ugandan economy; Besigye cited regime policies which are all about how to survive.
“That is regime survival. For example, we are endowed in agriculture but we invest more into the Presidency yet Agriculture sustains over 80% of the population.”
He said in Kabale, there were 12 mambas that drove from Kampala to show force yet in Kabalae there is no fire brigade, in hospitals there are no ambulances, “if there is one it does not have fuel”.
He said the current crisis in the economy was accelerated in 2011, observing that tonnes of cash was taken from Bank of Uganda hence the 30% inflation meaning that anyone with money in the pocket was robbed. Interest rates were hiked there by crippling the economy. Before that was cured, 2016 came in. Then they started firefighting including taking money from the client companies, he added.
“The resolution that caught my attention from Kyankwanzi was that of land. Under the constitution Government can acquire land for public use. However for such to happen the owner has to be paid. This is equitable.”
He added: “Now they do not want to pay before they use the land. In many places, people are crying, they have not been paid. There are people crying in Mbarara who have not been paid for land. Bad policies are like a bad fire. I do think that it is not limited to public use.”
Besigye alleged that President Yoweri Museveni might also want to take land from one private owner to an investor.
“They can say that you are not using the land and they give it to another.”
Huge government
Besigye urged the need to reduce the cost of Government to subsidise the government saying downsizing cannot be only to civil servants.
“The medical service is understaffed. In Nakawuka, Mr. Museveni he chased medical workers and the place is closed.”
He said the biggest abuse is in political appointments. “We have said that Parliament cannot be more than 150 people and RDCs will do. Kampala district is loaded with useless leaders.”
Lawlessness
“I take offence when someone says I am lawless,” Besigye pointed out, adding that the lawless person is the person arresting him.
He vowed to take Government to court for these actions noting that what happened in Makindye was one of the lowest moments that the country will experience.
“The state attacked the state. Kale Kayihura [police chief] is an ordinary citizen. He must answer the dictates of the law like everyone. When charged, he must be arrested whether in a range rover or helicopter.”
“Unless we change the law and say that if someone has done miracles he must not be charged. The private prosecution shows the public prosecutor is seating on his laurels. We have heard Mr. Kayihura say that he ordered the canning. Ordinarily, Kayihura should have been asked to step down by the DPP.”
Besigye said while murder is a capital offence, former Central Police Station DPC Aeron Baguma is still out there.
“I am sure that Mr. Museveni knows what he is doing. He does all deliberately. It is all focused on regime survival. He has no political response to teachers as he has no money to carry over to the teachers yet he has to keep the political survival.”
He said there are people earning Shs50m in this country and they also draw more as per diem and other allowance.
“Impunity is the biggest challenge of our times. The source of power is the rule of the gun. The ballot is another Katemba. The Naguru house was the high command of the rigging of the election. Nowadays there is no way that they can feel safe.”
Besigye clarified that the reasons why the African leaders do not like the International Criminal Court [ICC] is because they know it is there to address impunity.
“They know their actions will send them there.”
He said on top of the 80% youth unemployment, the other problem with Uganda is injustice
August 18, 2016 at 9:46 pm #27049ATTENTION: Management,administration and staff COMBONI HOSPITAL KYAMUHUNGA please note that patient bring you money and you also rander the service to them please take note that your hospital wards and beds are full of BEDBUGS so please act accordingly to avoid loosing customers. Thanks. Angry management.
August 18, 2016 at 9:52 pm #27050Well, I think the prevailing silence among opposition MPs is likely to last until then when their new rides they sent for from heaven arrive.
Then, after then will they be able to condemn govt for the dilapidated state of some primary schools across the country or remember to outburst govt about the dying cancer patients and generally other money constraint challenges that need even smaller monies than their 150m we now owe each of them.

August 18, 2016 at 10:18 pm #27056The case in which Ugandan Police chief and his junior commanders are accused of brutalizing civilians has taken a new twist following reports that some of the prosecution lawyers revealed that they fear for their lives.
Top city lawyers Nicholas Opiyo and Daniel Walyemera told a local news agency that they have received threatening phone calls from unknown persons asking them to back off from the case.General Kale Kayihura was sued and summoned to court over police officers involvement in the ruthless beating of former Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) presidential candidate, Kizza Besigye’s supporters in Makindye in July.
However, on the day he was supposed to appear before the Makindye Chief Magistrate’s court, (August 10), a group of demonstrators held a procession in a show of solidarity with the police chief and threatened to lynch lawyers who had filed a case against the police chief.Their actions have since been condemned by leaders across the political divide in the East African nation with Uganda’s Internal Affairs Minister, Jeje Odong saying their actions at the court were uncalled for.
One of the lawyers, Walyemera says he has received strange phone calls while his wife has been trailed by unknown persons. He says he has filed a complaint at the Uganda Human Rights Commission (UHRC).
August 18, 2016 at 10:25 pm #27058Did not appear in court today and apparently hiding at home in Rwanda until things cool down and will come back to be promoted. That is how far we have gone as a ‘country’ (if we are a country at all).
This is a lesson to all supporters of this regime not from Rwanda, you are being used.

Dictator Yoweri Museveni and First Lady Janet lay a wreath on the body of Andrew Felix Kaweesi during last night’s vigil in Kulambilo
Dictator Yoweri Museveni has singled out civil servants and blamed them for helping the increasing cases of murder.
Dictator Yoweri Museveni yesterday expressed dismay that public servants who make up only 1% of the population have remained a thorn in government development efforts, by pushing time and again for salary increments.
“The public servants of all types are no more than 400000. They are just 1% of the population. The problem is these do not listen to the advice of NRM. NRM is a tested political force. We know what we say and what we do,” said the dictator.
Citing last week’s murder of police spokesperson Andrew Felix Kaweesi, Dictator Yoweri Museveni noted that government’s efforts to install CCTV cameras in all cities and major towns have been frustrated by the salary increment demands.
At the moment, the dictator noted that government pays up to Shs 4trillion every year to civil servants, yet a one-off project like camera installation would cost about Shs 400billion.
“I have told them that they will cause problems to our country. In the NRM manifesto, I have never talked about salaries because the priories of a country like this which has emerged from chaos cannot be salaries for public servants,” he said while speaking at a vigil held at the home of the slain police mouthpiece.“We have been intending to install cameras in major cities and towns; because with cameras the investigations become easy, especially now that all of us are registered. You can easily follow the criminals with the cameras. That is how security is maintained in Europe and other developed countries. But here we use old methods of “Who saw him?” “Who was here?”
Dictator Yoweri Museveni went on to compare police’s investigations without CCTV as a farmer going to the garden without a hoe; adding that “This is all because of the public servants.”
“You have all these Indisciplined demands, and because I am a peaceful man, we are forced to do what we are not supposed to do. People who are dying, it’s because of public servants.
The dictator also blamed government’s failure to do other things like building army air force bases, because of the salaries.“At Entebbe airport, I see our fighter jets parked together with UN planes. This is because we don’t have money to complete airbases where they should be because the money has been taken by salaries.
Dictator Yoweri Museveni late last year went to the extremity of shutting down Makerere University for two months as students prepared to start their first semester exams, after lecturers went on strike demanding for their unpaid allowances.
The dictator also publicly opposed salary increments for government school teachers and medical workers, saying that government should be allowed to work on its key priorities, especially infrastructure development.
At the start of his fifth term in office, the president said he would not allow parliament, (which has all powers to determine its emoluments) to increase its wages
March 20, 2017 at 11:06 am #27187M7 talks of a country “that has just emerged from chaos” as if NRM came into power yesterday. NRM has been in power longer than all the previous governments combined and it ill behoves M7 to keep trumpeting after 30 years at the helm that the fault lies with his predecessors. M7 acts like a spoilt brat. He wants all the material trappings of power but cannot nor take the responsibilities that come with it. He points a finger at others forgetting the three that he is pointing at himself!! It has been said by many that you reap what you sow. M7 and Co. decided to use the boda bodas for nefarious activities that suited their (M7 & Co) purposes but now that the same boda bodas are causing him pain he points to others other than the boda bodas as the problem because to point at these boda bodas would be a tacit admission that his decision to use them to control and contain Ugandans is going disastrously wrong and he has no idea what to do about it.
March 20, 2017 at 11:07 am #27188I think Mr. Museveni should be honest with himself and Ugandans. A good leader must take responsibility for his failures instead of always apportioning blame on others. Granted, we need 400 billion for the CCTV cameras project but what is the annual state House budget? Isn’t it over 400 billion? Mr. Museveni’s annual budget for “presidential donations” is 88 billion. And what about the money we lose in corruption every year. Isn’t it Mr. Museveni who approved Basajjabala’s dubious 144 billion compensation for doing nothing in markets? Isn’t it the same man who approved the 6 billion presidential handshake? Isn’t it the same man who presided over a dubious privatization scheme in which national assets were sold to his cronies at give away prices? Before Museveni can blame civil servants for clamoring for better pay, let him also look into himself. Let him sale off his private jet like the president of Malawi did the other day. Let him reduce his State house budget by 70% and stop requesting for supplementary budgets. Let him ditch his hundreds of presidential advisers that are paid yet they never meet him. Let him down size the number of MPs. Uganda is a small country. We need no more than 150 MPs. Museveni cant preach frugality to Ugandans when he continues to live in Luxury. Borrow a leaf from humble and honest leaders like Thomas Sankara and lately Magufuli. It is only then that Ugandans will take him seriously. But i know that this his impossible for him. He is trapped in his own trap of patronage.
March 20, 2017 at 11:13 am #27189Absolutely, M7 is such a frustrated failed leader that cannot take us any-farther, his ways of patronage and thinking he owns a part of this country are really costing the country not only lives (right from the top officials to the unborn innocent Ugandans) but also hundreds of billions of money (through daylight corruption and dubious dealing by his mastermind). These are all done by his mastermind group, presumably untouchables, that are keeping him in power for all these 3+ decades…. he cannot touch them despite the fact that a number of their actions continue to unveil into the public! They (him and his mastermind) were wrong when they proposed to sale off nearly all the government owned businesses… with the aim of keeping the men in the street broke and poor having to beg from them that sold and bought the national assets!
#WakeUpUganda.March 20, 2017 at 11:25 am #27190Yoweri Museveni shall look for them and kill them
Criminal Yoweri Museveni has ordered Uganda Police to clean up their house, warning that the force has been infiltrated by many criminals.
Speaking during a vigil for the late police spokesperson Andrew Felix Kaweesi in Kulambiro, Museveni said on many occasions, cases have been frustrated by criminals together with police officers and end up not being investigated well.
“I have been following these cases especially in the Kagezi (Joan) murder. Evidence was very clear but it ended up there,” Criminal Yoweri Museveni said.
“There are many cases of intimidating witnesses and also killing them. The Police has been infiltrated by criminals and Kale (Kayihura) must clean the police.”
Criminal Yoweri Museveni cited a case of rally driver Ponsiano Lwakataka who he said police had clear evidence that he killed over 9 people but has not been arrested.
He said that all witnesses in the case were intimidated by police officers in Rakai and fearing for their lives, they abandoned the case.
“In that case in Rakai (Lwakataka), the people giving information were being hunted by police. Instead of arresting the criminal, they framed the one who reported.”
He added,”Many people come and say they want to give information to only me because they don’t trust police officers.”
The commander in chief said there are always clues to these crimes but because the police is infiltrated by criminals, evidence is always killed and cases die a natural death.
“All these murders I have followed myself but police have a problem. Kale must clean the police.”
Criminal Museveni also blamed the GISOs, DISO s and other intelligence officers at various levels in the country for failure to detect crime in their various areas.
“These criminals surprised us because this country has been in peace and hit us when we had relaxed. We shall look for them and kill them,” Criminal Museveni warned.
AIGP Andrew Felix Kaweesi was on Friday morning shot dead by unknown assailants as he left his home in Kulambiro.
He was killed together with his bodyguard Kenneth Erau and the driver Godfrey Wambewo
