{UAH} Aren't Ugandans tired of government manufactured crises!

For the last 27 years of President Museveni's leadership Ugandans have lived through many government manufactured crises - the fight with the judiciary over Justice Faith Mwondha IGG terms, death blows to General Kazini from a woman who couldn't wield an axe, the beating up of opposition leader Kizza Besigye and his lawyers by government agents the "Black Mambas", while defending him in court on classical trumped up charges that come straight from Robert Mugabe's book of dictatorship! the fire hosing of opposition leaders protesting draconian laws of assembly and an unfair land bill, the recognition and abating of those who were affronting the King of Buganda in Buganda land - leading to media houses curtails that were unconstitutional, the refusal to independently autopsy a young Ugandan parliamentarian who died mysteriously while in office leading to threats and a showdown with rebel MPs and the Speaker of parliament Rebecca kadaga. Who was Kiir's adviser over the years -do you want to tell me that Mrs Garang, did not warn President Museveni over the prevailing issues of opposition abuse -what advice and response did he have for Mr. Kiir over the years?  Now we have grabbed the attention of the international community once again with an anti gay bill - that speaks volumes to our inhumane ways -who killed Kato the young gay advocate and why can't we protect all Ugandans or even carry out a simple forensic investigation when they die so mysteriously? These are deliberate and timed blows that billow up to pique our tired psyche and in the end they converge as in mathematics to the same outcome - by pointing an accusatory finger like a leper's claw to an overstay President -who has mastered the art of responding negatively to each crisis and many a times pretends not to see the riding logic. Ugandans have gone through many of these roller coaster rides in the last 27 years -designed to obfuscate the immediate needs of the poor and to derail what is critically important to the conjoined frustrated progressives - who are powerlessly seeing through the smoke screens. What comes through the silhouette is a man -with many unlikable facades which have caused much pain and brought so much pity to Ugandans.
