The Political Eschatology


A member of Parliament has only campaigned for 2months and he wants a car to drive to Parliament. I have struggled for my degree for over 18 years in classroom and upon my graduation, the only thing Museveni and his regime can offer is a bottle of Rwenzori and a three hours speech at Freedom Square. Yet I will walk out of that tent as a nation builder.

Unlike these MP’s who will live as parasites. Why do we continue to be magnalised in our nation. Fellow elites why should we compose beautiful sermons to second immorality of the most acute degree. Bad is always bad, it doesn’t require a lot of psychology and legalese to point out. Our uneducated counterparts look-up to us a lot. Many of them failed to attain this education but they toiled so that we may have it to better their lives, but we have continue to front our books before societal needs.

Yet any education system is designed to solve societal challenges. I was once asked by a friend with whom I usually share a seat during my English language lectures. I will prefer to keep him anonymous for his safety because I am not afraid of mine. Anonymous asked, “Is it solely our benefit that we shall yell in the over crowded classrooms of this nation, teaching a foreign language to second language learners of English whose learning appetite is not influenced by any instinct of practice.”

I was astonished, holding my cheek, I replied, it’s a true that it’s our survival but to a greater extent it’s for our nation and we are the nation. Those men that sit behind tables pretend to superintend a nation they have at heart not. They eat, gag and bog on their sits so that no one sits their after them. They walk in tinted glasses as their siren lead cars push off the poor from the roads. They exempt their businesses from taxes but overtax those that produce and manufacture. The day of the Lord is coming. I call it the political eschatology!
They will flee on their bare feet running away from the wrath of Titans. The wilderness will be a Haven for them.

There they will share a meal with the beasts of the jungle. These words may send me there earlier than them but I am not afraid because my children will continue to live here. Someone will tell them that your father said these words and they came to pass. The prophets of God were activists of their time. Today’s prophets are cowards.

The youths should interest themselves in the politics of Africa and their country

Before the Bobi Wine effect! I only spoke about politics but did not include my mind any where in the equation. I spent the rest of my thoughts on my darling Chelsea FC but  even when I supported Dr Kizza BESIGYE against President Museveni, I did not think that it was our time as young people below the age of 35years to influence the running of this country directly or indirectly.

I never imagined that we are the majority and make up 80% of the 45million people.  I was not taken by a storm because I had read about many revolutions in the world and I was already exposed to the writings of great men of time like Franz Fanon, Napoleon the Great, Steve Biko, Mazzini the Charcoal burner  and Ferhat Abas. However, the manner in which I perceived this literature was on an education basis. Little would that form of education open up to the  fact that my society needed the same because that’s the intention of the Ugandan curriculum developer. They want to teach history and literature but the literature and history graduate is who they will censor on attempt to make his literature or history holistic by taking Makerere to the people.

There are usually debates about who is the most  expensive European foot baller etc. Nonetheless, that’s to less a concern to our country. It benefits us less. Many a time we have been magnalised because of our past, even our generational leader has experience the same. Calling him a former drug addict and so on. But the world has seen many revolutionaries with a more stained past than Bobi Wine, George Kara a Greek revolutionary was a dealer in pigs. leading a revolution in a country where majority did not eat pork. 

  I have seen many of Museveni’s  friends like Balaam Byarugaba telling the young people not to pay attention to politics because it’s a waste of time. It’s not about wasting time, it’s about how we can change our fortunes. We shall not all be friends to the president in order to benefit from this country. Our parents and grands have worked to better this country, we have no where to go. Even when we have, we shall never leave because of one individual.

WHY NUP CAN ENDORSE ANY OTHER BUT NOT FDC.

Last year on the 26th of November 2019, the Hoima Woman Mp race  between  FDC candidate, Hon Asinansi backed by People Power candidate Hon Kyagulanyi Ssemtamu  and NRM’s Hon Harriet Busigye supported by supreme dictator, set pace for the failure of future integration between FDC and People Power candidates in byee elections or parliamentary bids.

In this byee election, there were counter accusations between the two camps with the FDC accusing Kyagulanyi aka Bobi wine for using their platforms to manifest his presidential bid and as well surpass the traditional FDC. These accusations had been rumuored in earlier byee elections like Mbarara, and Jinja. This could be the reason as to why NUP principle Hon. Robert Kyagulanyi decided to face other byee elections  like Bugiri amd Arua without sharing camps with the traditional opposition. (FDC) In a bid to reconcile, the next byee election was Hoima that took place on the Thursday 26th-November-2020. In this byee election, the accusations were shouted loudest to an extent that some members of the FDC accused People Power members of exchanging feasts and slapping their party president.

In this election where the FDC lost to NRM with  a margin of 46% and 54% respectively, the eye witnesses accused the FDC for boycotting the tallying exercise in protest against People Power leaving the kleptomaniacs with the opportunity to rig the elections. This was done to with an assumed aim of lowering the invincibility ego of the people power then. However, it has turned out that the unity between these two bodies has failed. Even when fdc bloggers are accusing Bobi Wine foe not endorsing their candidate for Koboko Mp. He is not remorseful at all.

Besigye cautions regional Organisations to break silence on rights violations in Uganda

Uganda’s most outspoken activist and four time presidential Dr kizza Besigye has asked regional and international human rights organisation to interest themselves in investigation circumstances that led the death of over 59 people after the arrest of Robert Kyagulanyi.

“The massacre and extreme violence; the level and extent of Human Rights abuses; and the arrogance and impunity that has been displayed in various parts of Uganda are quite ominous, to say the least.

It’s increasingly clear that the extreme violence and Human Rights abuses were premeditated, institutionally organised and executed.

Most of the killings were carried out by armed people that were in civilian clothes, who travelled in vehicles with heavily tinted glasses and civilian number plates or no number plates at all. They deliberately targeted and shot (to kill) people or whisked them away in their “civilian” vehicles.

These killer squads must have been coordinated with the uniformed Police and Military troops that were heavily deployed in all areas because they freely mingled with them.

There was no threat of people armed with guns among those rioting. Indeed, there was hardly any soldier putting on body armour in anticipation of such a threat.

What was witnessed was planned outright election violence. Just like the 2016 post-election Kasese massacre, there are now calls for an independent inquiry into the November 18/19th Kampala massacre.

No one can investigate their own crimes. Up to now, no one even knows the exact number of deaths and serious casualties.

This is why sub-regional, regional and international bodies should step forward and discharge the responsibilities of their bodies’ Constitutive Acts and treaties. Sadly, for now, they’re all conspicuous by their total silence!

A stitch in time saves nine. It may, soon, be too late to meaningfully help.”


	

Social websites to forcefully give out presidential potus accounts to Biden by Jan 20th.

Big social media companies have vowed to give President elect Joe Biden the American potus social media accounts even when Donald Trump has not conceded. Given the fact that its week two after Biden hit the vote margin. They say Donald Trump has continuously made endless accusations to prolong his stay at Washington DC.

Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other sites as its usually a norm, have said they will help in the transition. Among these potus accounts is the account of the America first lady and vice president.

These will automatically be given the elects by the inauguration date of 20th January 2021 in case President Donald Trump fails to concede as the status quo stands. The big social media companies are slated to meet with the elects in the coming weeks to discuss the transition.
