Lado, Chris Opoka & Ochaya,
Just as a point of information, we seem to be forgetting that some of the cross over at around that time were basically technical: a means to be able to stand at the General Election that was due in 1971.

I recall only UPC members or candidates were legible? And they had to campaign / stand in at least a couple ( or 3) other constituencies?

This led to a whole lot of DPs who fronted as "UPC-abacabac"?

Could this be the case too?

You are wrong and definately wrong , ask anybody from Arua , some UPC guys from West Nile who write on this forum too if Oda did not drop DP to turn to UPC before Amin took over Power in Uganda in Uganda and infact Atamva Oda even  met with Milton Obote and shook hands on returning to Uganda from Tanzania ?  Don't tell me that Atamva  Oda died before Uganda was liberated by UNLA . Second question , if I may ask ---- Who killed Dr Solomom Asea in Uganda after Uganda was liberated ----- just asking and for that don't crack your head , I am only cross - checking anway ?

Atolo LULUA,
I think your mind had gone on leave, because I never heard or read in Uganda Argus when the late ODA Gasparo (RIP) crossed to UPC from DP in the late 1960s running to 1971 when the late Idi Amin took power.
I think, even the late Latim Alex (RIP) did not cross from DP to UPC if my memory had not gone for a leave like yours! Please try to revise or upgrade your memory citizen Lulua!

Mr Ocaya , 1979 Oda was still alive and after the day of the liberation of Kampala , by that time he was at Arua . He was killed afterwards and even went / travelled to Busenyi with the UPC members from West Nile - Arua to welcome Obote on his return to Uganda . I am as old as 60 yrs now . You know Mr Ocaya Gaspero had turned to UPC party before Obote was overthrown  in 1971 as DP was by then banned as a Party from 1966 crisis issues in Uganda . The rest may be History but a Historian is a keen man to find out the truths underneath for his writings anyway in cross checking facts . Thanks for your writing lines

Citizen LULUA LADO,
FIRST, if you are someone who is an elder generation that was born earlier than the 1980s or the so-called 1986 generations of NRA/M7ism, then I think you are excused.
SECOND, for information, the late Oda Gasparo (RIP), the late Latim Alex (RIP) and the late Obonyo Gino (RIP) all died before Uganda was liberated from the late dictator Amin Idi (RIP) in 1979.
TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT, these late DP leaderships were comrades to my late uncle OKENY Atwoma Tiberious (RIP) and they were very strong Ugandan nationalists whose political interests were not just village politics - aka - individual merits - or for myself politics which was introduced by the NRA/M7ism - ala - For Greediness and Ones Stomach, but not For God And My Country! That is the very centre for major corruption and self-aggrandisement!
LASTLY, the thing is, that in the old West Nile, everyone started making accusation fingers to the late OBOTE (RIP), but failing to see the enemy from inside their own kitchen such Moses Ali and many others who joined hands with the NRA/M7ism to divide us the people of the whole old Northern Uganda, which includes West Nile!
I think, the late Obonyo (RIP), the late Oda (RIP), the late Latim (RIP) were murdered by the late Amin (RIP) soldiers! Do not forget that both the late Obonyo and Latim were very strong Acoli DP leaders and if both were not murdered the likes of Ssemogerere could not have become the DP party leader for the 1980 general elections!

WHAT ROLE DID MUSEVENI PLAY IN UNDERMINING THE BINAISA GOVERNMENT?

When the NCC returned from Tanzania without President Lule, it convened in State House to select a new President of Uganda. After lengthy deliberations, in the first round of voting Prof. Edward Rugumayo the Chairman of NCC was selected to be the next President. But on techinical grounds ochestrated by Museveni because he feared a strong leader, a second round of voting the same night saw Godfrey Binaisa being selected in absentia as the next President. Museveni in the company of his former GSU handler, Mukombe Mpambara personally drove to go and pick Godfrey Binaisa from a Hotel and delivered him to State House. 

Immediately after Binaisa was swon in as the new president, massive violent protests broke out in Kampala demanding for the reinstatement of Prof. Lule (Twagala Lule). Both the Tanzanian Army commanders and Agrey Awori who was Binaisa's Aide urged the President to give orders for the security forces to shoot at the rioters but Binaisa outrightly refused. Instead, Museveni who was the then Minister of Defence went ahead to unleash the army against the protestors. Consequently the protest was contained but having left several dead and hundreds injured. Museveni's current brutal suppression of peaceful dissent should be traced to this incident thus his fear of the people's power. 

Binaisa's presidency faced a number of challenges. He had no control of the security forces. He could not make any decision without consulting Tanzania's Nyerere but still through the Tanzania's Resident Minister, Nshekilango. He presided over a goverment split along two major competetors i.e FRONASA/Museveni and Kikosi Maluun/Obote. His two Aides, Agrey Awori and Tumusiime Mutebile were spies working for the Obote and Museveni factions. He iniherited a newly set up communist political and economic structure and was pursuing capitalist programes of free market, democracy and human rights. During the OAU sumit in Liberia, he was denied recognition on grounds that Uganda's independence was questionable owing to its occupation by the Tanzanian Army. 

During this time, the military race between Kikosi Maluum and Museveni's FRONASA was heating up. Unlike Lule, Binaisa realised that real power lay with 'the men in uniform' and sought to neutralise them. A new wave of insecurity hit the capital Kampala where there was a series of unexplained murders of prominient personalities. Due to the proliferation of security forces at the time and though Kampala was operationaly under Kikosi Maluum, it was difficult to point a finger at any particular group. Political elites and proffessionals were targeted and in particular Mulago Hosipital Medical Doctors. During the same period when Binaisa left to attend the NAM meeting in Cuba, he left Museveni who was the Minister of Defence as the in-charge of government affairs. In that short period, three Mulago Hospital employees were shot dead and shortly after Jack Barlow and Dr. Abuden Abache were killed. The truth is that it was the work of Museveni's FRONASA aimed at discrediting the Kikosi Maluum and weakening the post Amin government. Museveni had unsuccessfuly argued that Kikosi Maluum leaves Kampala.

Binaisa removed Museveni from the Ministry of Defence to that of Regional Cooperation. He threatened to disband the Military comission for which Museveni was the Vice Chairman arguing that it had outlived its purpose. He urged Tanzania to start withdrawing its troops. He appointed the commander of Kikosi Maluum, David Oyite Ojok as Ambassador to Aligeria. He also planned to bring in an African peace keeping force. The Military commission for which Museveni was the Vice Chairman conspired with the Tanzania army and government and put Binaisa under detention. The country was now ruled by the Military Commission with Museveni as the 2nd most powerful man in the country. Binaisa was only to be released later by Obote during the 2nd UPC government.

INFORMATION IS POWER.
