MK,
You seem to remember only those parts of our history that speak to your
sense of loss. If it wasn't for Nyerere and TPDF, Obote and UPC would
have found it much harder if at all to return to power in 1980. It was
an open secret then who the annointed presidential candidate was. If you
don't trust the Waswahili as you put it, we must ask ourselves what
changed between 1980 and 1985 for Dr. Obote to fall from grace as a
favored personal friend of Nyerere onto the plebeian floor as an
expendable political potato.
And I have it from an impeccable source that Jakaya Kikwete doesn't like
your nemesis. This source, who had several conversations on the Great
Lakes crisis with Kikwete while he was still minister of foreign affairs
told me that Kikwete was quite disparaging of Museveni. For example,
Kikwete reportedly thinks Museveni is a loudmouth and a megalomaniac who
exaggerates his role in history. For example, in African liberation
struggles.
Of course of course, I don't want to cause a diplomatic row between
Uganda and Tanzania, so I will say no more.

Forces) who were very sympathetic to the then Guerrilla Leader Yoweri
Museveni Kaguta during the days of Uganda's liberation war and
struggle in 1979....I personally do not trust these washwahilis. as
the luo would say ..."We mando me IKULU "! trust these washwahilis...
you end up with a six inch digger knife embedded deep into your back!
That is my opinion!!/
