{UAH} Mw RUBUKI and UAH folks, UPC and KY Coalition was serious

Mw RUBUKI and UAH folks, UPC and KY Coalition was real and serious project!
FIRST, my open opinion has been that if the Coalition between the UPC party and the KY party had been used as a true political gear for the betterment of the future of our dear country, it could have been quite good for us all. Let it be known though many historians had interpreted the historical narrative of Uganda might be up-side-down.
I think, during the Lancaster House negotiation, both Kabaka Muteesa and Obote Milton took the issue of a united Uganda quite seriously before both were pushed aside by what I may interpret as the political time bomb left purposely by the British Colonialism. The Bunyoro Kitara and Buganda Kingdoms conflicts, which the British purposely failed to iron out before Uganda got political independence from 70 years of colonialism.
SECOND, as it stands today, the KY and UPC party Coalition collapsed and hence Ugandans witnessed heavy political turmoil and chaos which even the unborn generations to come will continue to suffer. Well, the spirit built for the Coalition during the Lancaster House negotiation and Agreement could have enshrined the doctrine of clear political tolerance and understanding if it were not torpedoed with political intrigues and populism by both stakeholders at the time. The Agreement between the UPC party and KY had some very good intention for the interests of the whole Ugandan even if we like it or not.
I think the ingredients of that Agreement had not been similar to the ones the NRA/M7 had signed with Kabaka Mutebi Mwenda for launching genocide against Ugandans in the Luwero triangle after the 1980 general elections if Ugandan were to compare it genuinely. YES, it is said every generations has its historical war to battle with!
LET US TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT, running up to the political independence of Uganda, the Kabaka of Buganda, Sir Muteesa Edward broke up with his old traditional value and became the first traditional leader to become the President of Uganda. Kabaka Muteesa was a transformed man ready to move into modernise Uganda together with the late OBOTE Milton the MUKOPI from Lango.
The unfortunate, thing is that there were some ultra conservatives in Mengo who would never move forward with Kabaka Muteesa and they had to wreak the fragile Ugandan political boat since they could not fathom working with OBOTE Milton, the MUKOPI from Akokoro Lango.
LASTLY, if Kabaka Mutebi and his Mengo establishment want to be passionate Ugandans as the late Kabaka Sir Muteesa Edward was, then I think they should spell their positions. My individual position had ever been that Ugandan should adopt Constitutional Federalism ala the ones we see in the Scandinavian countries such as Sweden, Norway, Denmark and others. YES, how about Constitutional federalism countries such as Canada, US, Germany, UK, Holland and, or Switzerland.
I think, Constitutional federalism Uganda, will be a better political approach for our dear country than Ugandans dying for unitary system which had never brought political harmony. GOOD DAMN IT, we must learn from our historical narratives but, we must even learn to have compromise and tolerances. Today we have Kabaka Mutebi leading the Mengo establishment and we know UPC party is being led by a new generation of leaderships hence the meaning of compromise for the future of our dear country.  This meant UPC and KY Coalition was real but not politics built on false premise!
