Look who is talking !
Concerning the arrests of Reform Agenda supporters, Matek writes:
"What is Kizza Bwesige(and all those noise makers in the RA) doing about it?"
Well, killings have been going on in Acholi for over 10 years now
and what is Matek doing about it apart from making noise ? The RA are
at least sticking their necks out on the ground, but what are the
likes of Matek in their so-called UPC 'bureau' in Washington doing ?
Yes, what exactly is Matek doing ?
Can we conclude that "there is pretty much nothing the [UPC] people can do..or is there?"
You should not throw stones in a glass house !

EM:
let me pick your brain a little bit!
Now that Yoweri Museveni's NRM is arresting and torturing supporters of the
so called Reform Agenda left right and center, what, if I may ask, are the
representative Reform Agenda (some of whom are station here in Washington,
DC) doing about it?
What is Kizza Bwesige(and all those noise makers in the RA) doing about it?
Should we say, Reform Agenda simply deceived Ugandans, now that some Ugandans
have decided to follow the Reform people, and are being tortured as a
consequence, there is pretty much nothing the Reform Agenda people can do
..or is there?

ON their first sitting after the Christmas recess, members of Parliament
yesterday condemned arrests of civilians believed to have links with Reform
Agenda (RA), a political pressure group.
Four MPs, Maj. John Kazoora, Geoffrey Ekanya, Michael Mabikke and Issa
Kikungwe shocked the House with allegations that suspects were being tortured
using snakes, crocodiles and termites to extract confessions of their
suspected links with RA chairman, Col. Rtd Kizza Besigye.
But defence minister Amama Mbabazi denied the allegations. "This information
is not available to me as a minister of defence and to us as members of the
National Security Council. But obviously this is a matter we are going to
investigate," Mbabazi said.
Ekanya said in the past two weeks alone, several RA activists have been round
ed up, tortured and detained illegally on tramped-up charges.
"We have torture chambers in this country where private parts are opened for
termites to bite. Others are tortured by crocodiles and snakes," Ekanya said.
