A Look at Some of Leaders who Have Been Humiliated. Kira Town Council Boss Mamerito Mugerwa Style as Voters Put Into Practice the NRM Gospel of Resisting whatever they View as Oppression
By Stephen Kasozi Muwambi
Locals of the Kasokoso wetland in Kireka beat the living hell out of the hitherto cult-like Kira town council boss Mamerito Mugerwa on Wednesday leaving the poor man crawling and crying like a baby. No offense meant folks, simply putting the criminal incident in perspective.
Had it not been for the quick intervention of Kampala Metropolitan Police boss Afande Andrew Kaweesi, our reliable pries swear, Mamerito would have joined his creator by now.
On a serious note, we roundly condemn Ugandans who have made it a habit to humiliate their leaders in Mamerito fashion. The criminality must stop as it does not augur well with civility and Ugandans well known and revered good morals. The law punishes mob justice and Ugandans must desist from taking the law into their own hands. Even if they feel wronged by their leaders, they should use the lawful means to seek redress.
Said and done we list some of the leaders who have been humiliated in the past to show the danger of the cancer that is eating up society.
President Museveni
While still a student at Makerere University, hot-headed MP Odonga Otto led a group of then campus UPC students who cast stones at the Head of State. The President was addressing the students at the Freedom Square when insolent students robed in UPC colours tried to attack him.
However, the President’s security handlers arrested Odonga and his band of demonstrators and dragged them to Wandegeya Police Post. They were arraigned before Buganda Road Court and charged with relevant charges.
That daredevil act and the resultant court charges as well as the publicity the stunts raised, only served to catapult Odonga into national limelight. It came as no surprise when Odonga floored a whole minister in Parliamentary elections back in Acholi, becoming one of the youngest MPs in the country’s history.
Gen Moses Ali
Butalejja folks showed contempt for this war general when they nearly beat him up. Moses Ali had turned up at the burial ceremony of the former area woman MP Cerinah Nebanda when the locals charged at him like wounded buffaloes.
The good Deputy Premier was reading the President’s commiserate message to the mourners when Nebanda’s tigress of a mum Alice Namulwa charged at the giant with other mourners following in tow ready to flog him senselessly.
In the blink of an eye, Namulwa had grabbed the President’s speech from Moses Ali and torn it to pieces as she repeatedly told the Goliath of a man to stop communicating his boss’ ‘nonsense.’
Like they say, shock knows not the bravest of man, Moses Ali who have fought many wars and attended the best of military academies around the globe, did a tactical withdrawal in time to escape the fury of the Munyole woman as well as that of her daughter’s fans, angry at the unexplained circumstances leading to the death of their beloved MP.
Come on, Moses Ali did not flee for dear life alone. Almost a whole government contingent took off, seeing Nebanda’s fans more than determined to send them to hell.
Ian Kyeyune
His Wakiso district voters living and carrying on business along Busabaala, Ggangu road, turned him into a toy when they made the man sit right in the dust that is left in the wake of passing vehicles thanks to the excuse of the road it was then.
As he obediently sat in the dust, his voters would scoop some dust and pour it in his hair and all over his body. Plead as he could, the pissed locals kept telling him that they wanted him to feel the pain they go through feeding on dust and walking in it with him idling in the comfort of his political office instead of fixing the passage.
At intervals, the locals would pass another ‘sentence’, requiring Kyeyune to wade through the dust to feel what they go through while they ply the road.
By the time his voters well through with the ‘mob sentence’, Mr Kyeyune was as brown as the dust itself from head to toe. The locals had chosen to torment Kyeyune for a long time, but the Police rescued him.
Dr Besigye, Odonga Otto, Nabilah
The man with the rolling and most romantic eyes in Uganda, according to Winnie Byanyima, had a dark day in the past when Kampalans claiming to have had enough of his demos descended upon him with kibooko.
As Warren led his band of demonstrators, fellas armed to the teeth with clubs, cornered dad Anslem and rained hot strokes on him which canes left him cursing Afande Kayihura for hiding his tormentors at CPS.  See, the club brigade had come running from CPS building in Kampala, leading many to believe Kayihura had started a unit that uses clubs to beat sense into demonstrators’ heads and bottoms.
Besigye was in company of maverick MP Odonga Otto and his colleague Nabilah Ssempala and Lukwago and Ssemujju Nganda, among other demonstration happy politicians, when hell broke loose.
Lukwago
Erias had taken his anti- Jennifer Musisi campaign somewhere in Kawempe, when kibooko guys, among his many voters, beat him to pulp. With tear shot eyes, Lukwago cursed Kayihura saying he sent the goons to cane him.
Oweekitiibwa Mayiga
Angry Abambowa (Kabaka’s official body guards) manhandled the youthful Mengo Premier Oweekitiibwa Charles Peter Mayiga right in the precincts of Lubiri and in the presence of Kabaka Mutebi himself.
Charging like buffaloes, the Abambowa threatened to strangle the Katikkiro with their scouts’ like ropes, after the Premier told them to let him attend to Kabaka’s errands first before he could show them their cow. In Buganda culture, the Kabaka serves Abambowa with a cow at some functions as a thank you gesture for minding his security.
MP Lugoloobi
As it happened with Kyeyune, Amos was made to wade through a pot-holed and muddy road in Busaana â€"Kayunga by his voters. The voters tricked him into making the journey to check on the poor state of the road. No sooner had the honourable MP hit the scene than his voters marched him through the muddy road.
When they finally let him free, Lugoloobi jumped into his 4-wheel machine and sped off at bottleneck speed, fearing his voters would take him through another round of torment.
