Book Review: UGANDA 'Crisis of Confidence' – The King's men, then, now and forever????? Read bellow book cover please.

Preamble: Some people have said that 'The trouble with history is not that it repeats itself but that people repeat historical mistakes'. The work titled as above by a brilliant son of Uganda, Jajji Ally Muwabe KK [today, a leader of one of the Ruling Party's numerous leagues] proves this well especially, on the eve of the repetition of a costly (in terms of money, man-hours and later, in lives) stage-managed inevitably cataclysmic, political  circus executed all over Uganda, similar to the episode staged at Gulu exactly 50 years ago, in 1964, against a single individual, biologically different from today's person  but holder of the same office as that one causing turmoil in the ruling party today, as was the case then.

 

Though it had been cooking for years in advance of Gulu, it is that 1964 'theatrical' act   that set Uganda's management of her politics on a nosedive to calamity, starting with infighting between the putchists themselves that was made hot by the incarceration of some their former co-conspirators and  a year later, in 1966, to bloodletting. It is this that then set the opening of the way for 'swine regimes' and'genocide' only 7 years later, in 1971.

When the reader goes beyond the subsequent series of 'Book Reviews' of this work and then gets courage and luck to go back to the archives, get a copy and delve into this prophetic piece of effort, the question that may come to mind is, '...are we back to Swine times?'- an interesting question because, many members of the 1964 cast, like Idi Amini's Finance Minister, now a General, the then youthful Kintu Musoke that threw punches for the UPC Buganda Regional office [at Radiant House,20  Kampala Rd], the Hoima octogenarian that has been at his desk since 1958 and was Amini's MD of the Peoples' Bank [UBC] in 1974 and has been deputy to focus of the  today's target of machinations plus, the author himself, who was among the youth expelled from the party in advent and wake of the Namboole sorry, the Gulu delegates conference for siding with the 'hated' Party SG from their days together  in India in the late 50's, etc. 

All these men are, once again, deep today's 'Theatre rehearsal' for the same act and play as was the case exactly 50 years back. Talk of History repeating itself!  Other individuals, e.g. the juvenile propaganda bullhorn and heckler-in-chief Anite (reportedly hailing from south Sudan), Todwong, Tumwebaze and other juvenile cheerleaders are simply marionettes, not in the know of what they are up to or where this may lead the country.

Nice reading, countrymen and women.

Note: The angle of the above introduction will not colour the forthcoming and subsequent parts of the overall review of the Book.
