{UAH} Young hecklers overthrow own party

The non-agenda item at the NRM retreat to overthrow the competent party organs and therefore confirm the "Life-Presidency" has succeeded in one major aspect: in diverting us from the real issues facing the party and state.

First, the issue was non an agenda item (agendas are prepared by the Sec. Gen; so no wonder as he was the target). at disenfranchised the party faithful and the Ugandan masses

Second, it helped open the eyes of those who still had hopes in the big man: he's a conspirator a la Brutus [Vs Julius Caesar] He was the architect of the whole rowdy, blackmailing exercise: proof: He never opposed the motion nor restrained the 'mad' youth.

Most important, the 10-day 'imprisonment' of 400 productive Ugandans in a backward economy is proof that the NRM top-dogs do not care about service delivery to the citizens. Millions of activities were tied up by their absence from their desk or duty areas [not only MP's but drivers, experts, drivers, cooks, guards, scientists, etc].32 thousand 'man-hours' hied up to serve or offer a 'propaganda stunt' is no mean waste in a banana republic.

Conclusion: The coup [choosing candidates in a preserve of the delegates conferences, not MP's] by the hired NRM hecklers at state expense , against their own party organs has no basis in law but is a good opener to who is leading us and pointer to where we are headed.
