Mulindwa:
1) Yes, We are sleeping today but that does not mean "they" won't wake up
one day. All sleeps have beginings and endings. I've never seen
people who sleep forever. Maybe our people are sleeping a seasonal sleep
throught out the hard times. Sometimes, instead of facing the harsh hard
times of reality, it's best for some people to sleep those
realities away. It refreshnesses and eases the minds of some
people. Wake-Up time will come, believe it or not.
2) We do not have the Kingdom! Kingdoms have certain levels of
independence.
3) We do not hold the Vice presidency post, if it is controlled by
others. The vice presidency post is a shadow.
4) Museveni will never give us Federalism, Ssabasajja will never lead
Uganda. Unless, we get Federalism through our own sweat, that's when we
will get it.
5) Something is very very wrong about supporting a third term. It
was best if the Royals said nothing about the issue at all. By the way,
why did they feel a need to say something in a collection?? Do they
believe in Constitutionalism at all?? Or their move is one based on
survival??

SUPPORT HIM: Kimbugwe addresses the press.
Looking on is Nkiinzi
By Joyce Namutebi
Buganda royals under the Prince Kimbugwe Foundation have
announced their support for a third presidential term for President
Yoweri Museveni should he desire one.
The announcement was made
on behalf of the princess and princesses by Prince Edward Kimbugwe at a
press conference held at the Foundation offices on Mwanga 11 Road,
Kampala on Saturday.
The press conference was attended by
Nalinya Catherine Nkiinzi, Katikkiro Jimmy Tabalamule from Bugembegembe
Kasengejje, Lt. Abasi Kawuki and other foundation members.
The
foundation, in a three-page statement, highlighted 30 achievements of
the Moveme nt government and said, “Because of these reasons we have
mentioned, we are unanimously informing Buganda that President Museveni
deserves another term.”
“We are not sure whether the
successors would consolidate these achievements and even ensure that we
the royals remain free and respected as we are now,” they added. T hey
appealed to all Ugandans to give Museveni a third term if it is his
wish.
The two-year-old foundation has 240 members out of whom
140 are princes and princesses, Kimbugwe said. They include the
president’s former adviser on poverty Nalinya Irene Ndagire.
All hell broke loose in January 1999, when Ndagire together with
three other princesses went to Kasubi tombs and made an announcement
that perturbed many Baganda.
They claimed that the Kabaka of
Buganda Ronald Muwenda Mutebi 11, was a son of King Freddie Muteesa’s
former bosom friend and Kabaka Yekka Member of Parliament, the Late
Daudi Ochieng, a distinguished pol itician from Acholi.
Kimbugwe
announced that they would give 10 bursaries to displaced children from
Acholi next year.
They commended government for UPE, democracy,
human rights, press freedom, immunisation and for returning 70% of the
properties that had been taken away from Buganda.
