When one reads Museveni's words carefully, one can not help but understand how useful the creation of Konny in Uganda is to the advantage of Museveni.

Subject: ugnet_: Museveni sees no capable replacement- Will not retire

Fellow netters,
 
Below is a more specific reporting by Radio Simba of what Museveni is quoted to have said as compared to what the New Vision reported. I presume the New Vision was informally timid in its reporting considering that it is a government mouthpiece.

I will not retire, says Museveni -Radio Simba
11th October 2003


President Museveni has been in power since 1986

President Museveni has said he hasn’t seen anyone with the capacity to replace him, and as such will not retire.

The President was speaking to close to 200 East African Lawyers at the Imperial Botanical Beach Hotel in Entebbe on Friday.

He said he has looked around but has not seen anyone who can carry on with the vision he has for this country.

Renown City Lawyer Elias Lukwago who attended the conference told Radio Simba that Mr. Museveni who was responding to a question from a Tanzanian lawyer about his retirement said that he is irked by repeated talk o n the third term and his retirement.

The President said he was likely to change his mind on retiring if the talk about the third term continues.

He added that as a freedom fighter, he will not retire until he finds someone who can carry on with the vision he has for this country.

He also expressed dissatisfaction with the law providing for habeas corpus.

Mr. Museveni says the law is against justice and his fight against terrorism.

The annual conference had a theme of "Globalization and Terrorism: the new challenges.

The president said the law needs to be amended so that suspected terrorists can be tried secretly.

He said the LRA is not a simple war as people think attributing the struggle to the Sudan.

He said Kony was being supported by the Sudan and Arabs from the Middle East, reason the war is not ending.
