REBEL PRA - NRA PLANS TO INVADE RWANDA.
Following the Kisangani defeat, the NRA shifted the battle front to Kampala. Verbal artillery flying between the the two capitals worsened the situation. Col. Kyakabale now exiled in Rwanda had recklessly made a public declaration of war. The NRA was bent on avenging the Kisangani defeat. The NRA Chief of Staff and former Commander of the NRA Congo Operation Safe Heven (OSH), James Kazini organised a retaliation. With full blessing of Museveni, troops and heavy artillery were positioned on strategic rised grounds along the Uganda/Rwanda border notably Ngoma in Ntugamo and Kyamugasho in Kabaale. A plan to recruit and train a force that would back up the invasion of Rwanda was hatched. The hasty recruitment drive covered only western region partly to deny PRA potential recruits. Business tycon, Hassan Basajjabalaba was contracted to transport these recruits to the former prison ground of Bihanga just behind the backyard of Museveni's Rwakitura country home. The facility had earlies been used as an arms depot for the RPF during the 4 years war of return to Rwanda and now it was a training ground for forces to dislodge them from power. Seven thousands of trainees were hoarded into the tiny training wing while a similar number also underwent training at the NRA 2nd Division Headquarters in Mbarara. Kazini replaced the head of the training wing, Col James Sebagala by his puppet Col Sula Semakula. The recruitment and training bypassed the usual NRA department of training headed by Brig. Muheesi. The flow of funding and logistics for this crush programe moved from Kazini (the Chief of Staff) to Col. Potel Kivuna who was the 2nd Division Commander in Mbarara.
Besides the training of recruits, Kazini assembled a War Team headed by Col. Mugyenyi Gavas and assisted by Captain Njumba and a few others to draw a war plan. To conceal their activities they operated from College Inn Hotel in Wandegeya. The Army Commander, Gen. JJ Odong was not made aware of these plans. When Museveni appointed Kazini as the Army Commander to replace JJ Odong, the then NRA spokesman Maj. Keitirima publicly stated that "the outgoing Army Commander had been leaking army secrets". During the handover ceremony, JJ Odong stated that "the higher a monkey goes up the tree, the more it exposes its behind". He further cautioned that "let us not be like grasshoppers who start biting each other and forget the one who put them in a bottle." Indeed Kazini climbed higher and the last time he exposed his behind was in a sitting room of a prostitute where his slain body lay. The Justice Porter Commission into NRA conduct in the Congo had recommended disciplinary action against Kazini for "shaming the name of Uganda". Instead Museveni rewarded him with an elavation to the position of Army Commander.
Museveni knew about and blessed all these designs by Kazini.
The Congolese betrayed patriotic Ugandans who had taken up arms against the Museveni dictatorship. After the first set back near Aboro Hills in Ituri, the boys were not detere. Kayihura must have beem amazed by the mere sight of a senior Lawyer and High Court Advocate, the late Sam Okiring (RIP) wielding a Light Machine Gun (LMG) in the forests of the Congo. The presence of two Doctors, Dr. Julius Muhumuza and the injured Dr Wilbroad Okung must have sent him whispering into Museveni's ear that the "this is a mass uprising". But moreso, the composition of the rebel rank and file that had a national character. Compared to his NRA in 1981 that had westerners, the group was composed of people from all corners of the country. The captives while still recovering from the shock of being stabbed in the back by their congolese hosts coupled by the onsight slaughter of some of their comrades, they just revealed to CMI all the information that they had except one issue. None of them could accurately pinpoint Dr. Besigye as having been their leader. The nearest they came was to state that while they were in Kigali they had at one time been told to expect a very distinguished guest but the visit was cancelled at the last hour. On that basis they simply speculated that it could have been Dr. Besigye. With this development, CMI and Museveni in particular were very upset and dissappointed ar they had nothing to incriminate Dr. Besigye - their main target. Interestingly, before even Museveni could recieve the interrogation report, a draft copy of the same was already being studied having been flown out through Entebbe airport.
The two captive Doctors sneaked out of CMI's hands and fled the country. The rest were detained without trial in the hope that they would confess and seek amnesty that would be used to implicate Dr. Besigye. The boys never gave in. The purpose of this revealation is to show that the situation then gave rise to a popular armed uprising that was national in character. It is now a decade since then and the situation has grown from worse to irreparably worst. History will repeat itself.
