EM,
The answer to your question is one that we as Ugandans are stupid no matter how
educated we are or how much intellectual we are, for we still reason the
opposite way and think in a vacuum.
Its good being ignorant but we are naturally stupid period for we cant even
tell the bad from good and the evil from right so until we get out of our
stupidity no matter what qualifications we hold, shall remain that way.
Sorry but its the reality.

But John
This is kindly a very childish and silly argument, it is not about good or bad
devil, it is about the total failure of Buganda that has sunk our country. And
to understand it you need to walk out of Buganda many years ago as I so did. We
live but survive on Wolokoso and being in a center of the country we start to
become a bad apple in the basket. John please tell me on the support you handed
to Museveni, on the disappointment he has sold all of you, why do you stand up
to now support Besigye or Mugisha Muntu? And supporting them is not the issue
but can’t you for God’s sake use this failure to do a more intelligent
decision? Is asking a Muganda to question the motives of a prospective leader
really that too much a demand? How much do you know Besigye? But how much do
you know Mugisha Muntu, a man that decided to even got to Stockholm and return
his abandoned wife for now as a prospective leader he needs to be married? It
baffles every intelligent
mind man. When do you as a Muganda back off and say you know Ssekawuka kali
kakulumye? And do you know what is so funny? You re now blaming Museveni for
selling out Uganda for he is a Rwandese but Besigye is a Muhororo too. What
nationality are Bahororo sir? Jesus !!!!! And then you look on all Baganda that
are up and high in Museveni’s government then you realize how General Katumba
is a sellout, how Mutebi is a sellout, how Ssekandi is a sellout, how Samson
Kisekka was a sellout.
Is Uganda’s problem its leaders or it is Baganda? And just asking !!!!!!!

Ki Luts
See that's where we all go wrong. There is nothing like a better devil for a
devil remains a devil regardless of what kind. Uganda will always be used and
abused for we tend to judge others and live out some.
Its time we uplifted a new method that judges everyone equally based on what
they have done or do small big whatever. This is the time we will move to a
better Uganda.
Lets try to help a real Uganda where no one is above the law or favored based
on where he or she comes from.

Ki Luts,
When you associate and agree with thieves you are a thief too by association.
So Ssekandi is a thief by association.

Sam Kutesa
Kutesa, Ssekandi, Otafiire are either under pressure to retire or are
considering quitting elective politics, with power looking likely to shift to
younger cadres under Museveni’s control.
Foreign Affairs Minister Sam Kahamba Kutesa, who is also the Mawogola MP, is
facing family pressure to retire from elective politics in 2016, The Observer
has learnt. Sources close to Kutesa say that a family meeting at his farm in
Lugusuulu, Sembabule district late last year, urged Kutesa to quit and
concentrate on his vast business empire.
Kutesa is one of Uganda’s most powerful ministers, who has been in virtually
all cabinets named by Museveni. A relative to Museveni, Kutesa is no stranger
to controversy, having been once censured for influence peddling, and
implicated in corruption scandals. Were he to quit, it could confirm a trend of
passing of power from old guards to younger political and military cadres.
Kutesa is not the only one being nudged towards retirement. Prime Minister
Amama Mbabazi, Vice President Edward Kiwanuka Ssekandi, third Deputy Prime
Minister and Minister for Public Service Henry Muganwa Kajura, Justice and
Constitutional Affairs Minister Maj Gen Kahinda Otafiire and the state Minister
for Luweero Triangle Rosemary Namayanja Nsereko have also contemplated
retirement at one time or another.
Big joke
An insider source said Kutesa’s family is particularly concerned that some bad
politics is tainting the minister’s public standing especially when his name
keeps being mentioned in financial scandals like the 2007 Chogm scam. Although
he was acquitted by the Anti-corruption court, family members believe that it
is better for the minister to steer clear of politics.
“They think that such issues are putting at risk the family interests,” a
source told The Observer.
Another source told us that the family, particularly his children are not happy
with the way their father is rebuked by supporters of his rivals back in
Mawogola. His daughter, Elizabeth Kutesa, who occasionally gets involved in her
father’s political activities in Sembabule, was markedly guarded when we
contacted her this week.
“I think your call to me will not be of any help if you can’t tell me the
sources that gave you this information,” she said.
However, Kutesa has reportedly described attempts to get him to retire as a
“big joke.”
“His plans are focusing on 2016, and he is expected to meet the NRM set up in
the district before attending to the leadership wrangles in the district,” a
source told us.
Kutesa’s Political Assistant, Ronald Ssemwogere, told us that his boss’
political road map had no indications that he will retire soon. He is said to
be looking at helping the district climb out of poverty and get better
services. He also wants to see an end to the fights between Sembabule LCV
Chairman Elly Muhumuza and Chief Administrative Officer Nsubuga Kiberu, and the
presence of Lwemiyagga MP Theodore Ssekikubo.
“He can’t leave when Ssekikubo is still around because it will be as if he has
surrendered to Ssekikubo,” a source told us.
Kutesa and Ssekikubo have been fierce political rivals since 2001 when
Ssekikubo defeated Kutesa’s cousin Sam Rwakoojo (current Electoral Commission
Secretary). They have always sponsored rival candidates for various positions.
It’s only in the 2011 polls that candidates loyal to Kutesa won most leadership
positions in the district especially in Kutesa’s Mawogola County.
2016 road map
If Kutesa were to retire in 2016, he would probably join Prime Minister Amama
Mbabazi, who is also reportedly considering quitting (See:Mbabazi to quit in
2016).
Other top government officials said to have considered retiring include Vice
President Edward Ssekandi, Third Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Public
Service Henry Muganwa Kajura, Justice and Constitutional Affairs Minister
Kahinda Otafiire and the State Minister for Luweero Triangle Rosemary Namayanja
Nsereko.
Electoral pressure
While some politicians are retiring due to old age, Dr Aaron Mukwaya a senior
lecturer at Makerere University’s department of Political Science suggests that
some could be afraid of losing the next election.
“Many of them look at politics as a means of their survival and protection,
therefore there is no way they can choose to retire unless due to a fear that
they will not get support from their sponsors or fear for a loss of an
election,” Dr. Mukwaya said.
A NRM MP, one of those considering a 2016 retirement, says that after 15 years
in parliament, it would be risky for him to go back to his constituents to seek
re-election.
“Winning is possible but it will be a hard-fought win, and the best thing is
for me to leave without being necessarily voted out,” the MP said.
This, sources say, could be the thinking of VP Ssekandi. Having narrowly
defeated youthful Jude Mbabaali, Ssekandi may not seek re-election in his
Bukoto Central constituency. However, according to his political assistant
Kizito Kawonawo, the VP remains undecided.
“He says he doesn’t know whether he will seek re-election or not, that is an
issue he will think about in 2015,” Kawonawo told us.
With Jude Mbabaali on seemingly shaky ground for 2016, having upset a section
of his supporters after he dramatically withdrew an election petition
challenging Ssekandi’s election, Masaka Woman MP Freda Mubanda could be eying
Ssekandi’s seat.
Although she is an NRM MP, Mubanda is positioning herself as an independent
minded MP, who is not shy to go against an official NRM position, something
that could endear her to some of Mbabaali supporters.
NRM future
Their retirement may shock some NRM party supporters but it is likely to have
little impact on the party’s support base. President Museveni appears to be
shifting allegiance from the old guards to the party’s young Turks. This
departure is also reflected in the army, where his son Muhoozi Kainerugaba is
in charge of the all-powerful Special Forces Command.
The exit of veterans like Kajura may, therefore, be good news to a president
who wants to build a party that can be in charge of the country’s politics for
foreseeable future.
“That party is a decision of one individual, if he likes you, he will keep you
around, and if he doesn’t want you, he will de-campaign you and get rid of
you,” Dr. Mukwaya says.
Yet this argument also points to another fact. If some of these ministers
realise they are still wanted by the big man they may return in 2016. In the
run up to the 2011 elections, Ssekandi had indicated that he would not seek
re-election, and anointed Kityamuweesi Musuubire, who works in the vice
president’s office, to replace him.
But a few weeks to the NRM primaries, Ssekandi hit the campaign trail once
again. A shocked Musuubire chose to run as an independent but was persuaded to
drop out of the race. According to some sources, Ssekandi’s sudden U-turn was
prompted by an assurance from the president that he would be appointed to his
current position of Vice President, having previously had fears that if he
returned to Parliament, he would have little chance of winning the Speakership.
