SV: {UAH} Ayume Petition "Yoweri Kaguta Museveni: Stand up and tell the truth about my father's death"

Okello DOKOLO and Comrade OCHIENO,

There are some unfortunate situations whereby we have to condemn NRA/M7ism regime or the over nasty language of jumping on Rwanda folks. Why do we not blame ourselves but just having some lack of memory by just being selective?

SELECTIVE hereby, I mean within the UPC party, we started blaming the likes of OLARA Otunnu who were thousands of miles away from the theatre of spraying bombs meanwhile we concealed the men of violence!

SELECTIVE hereby, I mean we cannot accept the peaceful change within our own political entities meanwhile trying to be innocent! We create our own restlessness from within our own political bodies.

The question is; why should we condone thugs and mop justice as we have witnessed within our UPC party lately whereby we leave the real political problem of Uganda under the NRA/M7ism regime? I think, the Uganda political problem we have is not only NRA/M7ism regime, but the right to political freedom which had been dominated in a single family much longer for example within our UPC party.

 

Ocaya pOcure – talks from outside the box!

Comrade Joseph Ochieno,

You know our country suffers disproportionately from careerism amongst
our elite. Thats why in climbing up the greasy pole of so called
professional success, many lofty principles are sacrificed along the
way. Thats why most of our professions are a shell of themselves under
the Rwandan dictator. Changing this mindset is going to be our biggest
challenge when we end the occupation.

>>
>> As if
>> suspicion created by Buturo was not enough, the Minister of Works,
>> Transport
>> and Communication, John Nasasira and Masindi Woman MP, Kabakumba Masiko,
>> made
>> the situation even worse.
>>
>> Kabakumba
>> told a special sitting of Parliament convened to pay tribute to the
>> departed
>> former speaker that although Ayume received a call from Kampala asking
>> him
>> to
>> return to Kampala that night, there was no foul play.
>>
>> Kabakumbas
>> statement is troubling because Ayumes hosts, P.K. Kuruvilla the deputy
>> chairman

>> over
>> in
>> Masindi, and Mr. George Abola of Kinyara Sugar Works, pleaded with him
>> not
>> to
>> travel at night.
>>
>> Sources say
>> the call that made Ayume travel at night came from State House. Kabakumba
>> said
>> that the call was reminding Ayume of a Cabinet meeting on Monday.
>>
>> However, it
>> is difficult to believe that Ayume, who government says was so crucial to
>> the
>> on-going Cabinet discussions on constitutional changes, would need a
>> phone
>> call
>> to remind him of a crucial meeting.
>>
>> Nasasira,
>> on his part, tabled in Parliament photographs to prove that there was no
>> pothole at the spot where the accident took place, as earlier reported.
>> But
>> The
>> New Vision embarrassed him when its team of journalists reported that the
>> pothole had, actually, been resealed hours after the accident.
>>
>> That is
>> what forced Maracha MP Alex Onzima to demand an explanation from the

>> with
>> a
>> lot of energy, wondered why government had withdrawn Ayumes official car
>> and
>> instead given him a five year-old vehicle, which Minister of Justice
>> Janat
>> Mukwaya had rejected. Mukwaya shot up sobbing and dismissed Onzima as
>> being
>> unreasonable.
>>
>> She

>> been
>> surrendered to transport delegates attending the African Development Bank
>> meeting in Kampala.
>>
>>
>>
>> But after
>> the death, the official car was immediately returned and it is here in
>> the
>> garage, Onzima told The Weekly Observer in an interview last week. What

>> towing the wreckage straight to a garage in Ndeeba? A senior police
>> officer
>> in
>> charge of the area, Benjamin Namanya, said in an interview with WBS TV
>> that
>> this was wrong. The vehicle was later taken to Naguru Police for
>> inspection.
>>
>> What about
>> the mystery surrounding the trailer that is alleged to have hit Ayumes
>> car?
>> Police spokesman, Assuman Mugyenyi cited the trailer in the accident, but
>> Nasasira said it was not involved. Who is to be believed?
>>
>> And now

>> tinkering with the Constitution, especially the attempts to amend Article
>> 105
>> (2), which limits a president to two five-year terms.
>>
>> The theory
>> further suggests that Ayume wanted to run away because he feared to get

>>
>> Respected

>>
>>
>>
>> "The

>>
>> I would

>>
>> In one of
