WHO EXACTLY BROUGHT MUSEVENI TO POWER?
"...........what is special about our children yet we the people of Ankole were part of the group that brought this government to power?" Mr Robert Rwekitama - the representative of the families of detained former Aides to Gen Ssejusa lamenting before the press last week. The wives and parents of the detainees were contemplating a meeting with Museveni to plead for the release of their detained loved ones. Its coming to two years now since the their loved ones were arrested over treasonous allegations linked to Gen Sejusa after he fled to exile in London. The detainees all hailing from Museveni'sHOME
area and formerly attached to his elite Special Forces Group are under mock trial before the General Court Martial.
Gen Ssejusa urged them not toSEEK for leniency but should instead push for justice. He said: "some people say by virture of their tribe, they are in the thing (bali Mukintu) but the their condition is not better than those in Budiope." The accused soldiers are Rwakyozi, Ninsiima, Nasasira, Karuhanga, Nayebare and Mwesigwa.
It is very common for different regions to claim that they brought thecurrent regime (Museveni) to power. Initially it was Buganda's Luwero that bore the brunt of the five years war, then came Rwenzori region that witnessed the first surrender of government forces to the NRA and hosted the first interim administration. Then came Nyabushozi and Kebisoni im Ankole and Kigezi respectively that provided the historical top commanders. In the past Museveni exploited this mindset to galvanize politicalSUPPORT and to entrench his politics of patronage. Currently, he is preoccupied with who sustains his hold on power thus his focus on the northern and eastern regions.
Therefore for Mzee Rwakitama and others like Rwakitatarate, Rwakibondo, Rwakitwe, Rwabiguru, Rwabiino etc, they should come to terms with their Mzei (Museveni)'s shift of alliance. They should come to terms with the fact that the alleged treasonous actions of their loved ones was not only criminal but a shame to the greater Hima community for being Bipinga to Mzei. Opposition to Mzei had been ring fenced to the Dradigas, Atugonza's, Okellos, Opolots, Mukwanas, Kirundas, Mukasas, Batanyenderas, Kifefes but not to the Karuhangas, Nasasiras, Rwakyozis, Ninsimas and Nayebares. On the other hand, if its true that they had really plotted to overthrow Museveni, then they deserve to beCREDITED for venturing to break the misconception created by Museveni that all Himas are behind him yet majority are as badly off as other Ugandans.
However, these boys need to prepare for the worst since Museveni is the complinant, Chief Justice, Director of Prosecutions, and owns the General Court Martial. The situation is aggravated by the fact that their familiesCONTINUE to engage with Gen Ssejusa yet Museveni expects them to confess and publicly implicate Gen Ssejusa in return for his pardon. It will not be surprising for Gen Ssejusa to be added on their charge sheet depending on his political activities.
