So you mean you are now calling the Kabaka of Buganda and his followers
fools!.. I think the Ssebasaga is smart enough to realize that Museveni's NRM
gave him "Biyoyo be Nsuwa", while Museveni uses the Kabaka shoulder to climb to
promote himself.
The fact of the matter is that the Kabaka and many of his subject in
Buganda are suffering as a result of biting poverty in Uganda Ushered in by the
"visionary leadership" of the NRM.
The Kabaka himself put it quiet eloquently and succulently when he
question the kind of Kingship NRM offered him. The King of Buganda has no
authority to levy taxes on his subjects...this is but a fact.... and therefore cannot
collect sufficient revenue to finance development projects in Buganda and
for the Buganda.
In fact, the Kabaka has to beg for handouts from Yoweri Museveni's NRM
Regime for his daily expenses. Meanwhile many of his subjects in Buganda are
suffering biting poverty, lack of jobs e.t.c People are living in desperate
situation in Buganda while people from certain favored areas "wash their face with
Milk" ( if you know what I mean)
Some commoner on this forum argued that the Kabaka should conduct "fund
Raising " or Harrambee to in order to obtain funds to finance projects in
Buganda. This is a terrible insult and a demeaning comment one can make about the
KING.
Ultimately, as the say, all politics boils down to the "Checkbook". This is
true here in the states, in UK, and In Buganda.

"The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the
people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It
thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to
repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by
extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the state."
