'TULI MUKINTU'
Tuli Mukintu are/is a Bantu language words to mean 'we are in it'. It is now a popular slogan used by those who are benefiting from thieving under Museveni's patronage. Members of the 'Tuli Mukintu' group are identified by the financially paying position they occupy in the government, the luxurious tender they win, the rapid promotions, rank and corresponding financial benefits in the security forces, the fat bank account, the posh car, the real property held in Kampala, glamorous weddings and weekend get- together parties and expensive outings, studies abroad, affording medical treatment abroad, number of foreign trips and the corresponding per diem, etc. 'Tuli Mukint'u is the Museveni's regime version of the Iddi Amin's regime of Mafuta Mingi (those who benefited from illicit trade). It is this Tuli Mukintu that gave rise to the popular saying of "Museveni Mpaka Last' (Museveni till the end) that is used during election time. It is also a modification of the infamous Bidandi Ssali warning to the electorates during Museveni elections thus 'olina kewekoledde, londa Museveni' (have you achieved, Vote Museveni). It is this 'Tuli Mukintu' that is driving many Ugandans to cross from the opposition to Museveni's camp. It is not by conviction but are driven by the urge to join the thieving ('kuba mukintu') hence the saying "if you cant win them, join them".
