SV: {UAH} MUSEVENI'S WOOING OF NORTHERN UGANDA EXTENDS TO THE LATE BISHOP JANAN LUWUM

Aahaahahh ehe he, GOOK, another heap of malicious rubbish invention. Even this kind of

wicked manipulative insinuation won't turn my late fathers very noble act /deeds into negative

agitation. What he did was very noble the sort you would probably never do.

HE NARROWLY SURVIVED ASSASSINATION BY AMIN'S MEN ( SHOT BUT SURVIVED with the help of some

Church people, he manage to get into Tanzania!!!).

He was never opposed to any Armed struggle to over throw Idi Amin. He supported armed struggle

against Amin.

HIS CONFLICT WAS ONLY ABOUT UNFAIR /UNJUST MANEUVRES IN THE RECRUITMENT

AND UNFAIR ALLOCATION OF SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES. That was all.

(obs!! the scholarships were not ear markt for UPC but to aid UGANDA REFUGEE STUDENTS)

I won't go into that detail. Please consult thos who were in Tanzania. Consult Mzee Nekyon.

BUT, I HEARD ABOUT THE INFORMERS,THOUGH. The version is that they were UPCs.., UPC men who pretended to

be ladies. But even that version, I regard it as wolokoso since they did not point out any particular person.

But it lead to then UPC inner circle.

NEED I SAY THAT BY THAT TIME, HE WAS ALREADY DETAINED?

WHAT DID HE WORK WITH AFTER IDI AMIN WAS OVER THROWN?

Gook, I told you you did not have much on this. People who lived in Tanzania are there.

On my hand I can count several.

My hypotes is that much of the conflicts among the Ugandan refugees probably cradles the fact that

the UPC failed to understand that not all the refugees were UPC. In essence, the force was not a UPC force.

Rob,

You state here below-:

 "The movement of the said arms was monitored and were intercepted by the Iddi Amin regime following a leakage that originated from among the dissidents owing to their internal rifts. At the time Museveni had disagreed with the main dissident group led by Milton Obote and was running his own brief case organisationCALLED FRONASA. The other exile groups at the time suspected Museveni to be an Iddi Amin spy."

If you remember recently in my rare " altercation" with Noc he voluntarily told us about his late Mzee's " troubles" with the exiled community in TZ.

Now like I have always stated Mzee Nocrach's friendship (and by extension that of his elder son Noc) with M7 didn't start recently.

Mzee Noc was ( and this was backed by impeccable evidence) said to be one of those who would tip off the enemy about the activities of the " rebels"!

Therefore our friend Noc's present stand and his " no party views" should be looked at in light of these historical facts!

MUSEVENI'S WOOING OF NORTHERN UGANDA EXTENDS TO THE LATE BISHOP JANAN LUWUM

Of recent Museveni has rolled out aSYSTEMATIC scheme to tame the historical hostility of northern Uganda. A detailed brief is in the pipeline but here below let me chip in with the above subject matter which is part of the wider scheme.

Late Archibishop Janan Luwum died in 1977 while under arrest over treasonous allegations in what the regime described as a motor accident. He was declared a martyr by the global Anglican community and his statue stands at the west door of West Minister Abbey in London. In Uganda the late Janan Luwum has not attracted much attention because of the political climate that came up after the fall of Iddi Amin to-date. It is now 35 years since he died and 29 years since Museveni took over power. Its only this year that the Museveni government is using the Church of Uganda to gain political capital by spearheading the organising of an annual remembrance of the late Archbishop Janan Luwum that is slated for February 2014. Museveni is scheduled to grace the occasion where South African Bishop Tutu, York's Bishop Sentamu and other prominent religious leaders will be among the top dignitaries.

Archbishop Janan Luwum was an Acholi from Kitgum who rose through the ranks to become the head of the Anglican Church in Uganda during the reign of Iddi Amin. At the time Acholi and Langi tribes bore the brunt of Amin's purge owing to the fact that they supported the exiled former President Obote who was leading fighters in Tanzania to oust Iddi Amin. The late  Janan Luwum became a leading critic of the excesses of the Iddi Amin regime. Around 1977 the dissidents smuggled arms into Uganda using the Anglican church that was historically UPC leaning. The movement of the said arms was monitored and were intercepted by the Iddi Amin regime following a leakage that originated from among the dissidents owing to their internal rifts. At the time Museveni had disagreed with the main dissident group led by Milton Obote and was running his own brief case organisationCALLED FRONASA. The other exile groups at the time suspected Museveni to be an Iddi Amin spy.

The late Janan Luwum died alongside other two cabinet Ministers; Erinayo Oryem and Oboth Ofumbi. speaking at the launch of the steering committee for the planed occasion, Prime Minister Ruhakana Rugunda described Late Janan Luwum as a political icon whose matyrdom galvanised efforts to oust the dictatorial regime of Iddi Amin. He added that Luwum's life was not only seen in the religious aspect but also in the social and political aspects whose life was a challenge to both political and religious leaders. Since taking the path of war in the early 80s and consequently capturing power in the mid 80s to-date, Museveni has consistently been trying to underrate the role of other other groups that fought against the Iddi Amin regime. He fronts his group of FRONASA as the sole fighting group that ousted Iddi Amin. He has often described the former President Milton Obote all other of his UPC party members and sympathisers as devils. Late Archbishop Janan Luwum was not a member of FRONASA but Museveni's own Bishop Festo Kivengere was close to Bishop Luwum.Therefore he feared that if he had  had to acknowledge the role of the late Archbishop, he wouldn't have escaped acknowledging the role of the UPC, its leaders, Acholi and Langi army officers and the general population of northern Uganda. 

During his five years guerrilla war, Museveni had his own religious icon in the name of Cardinal Nsubuga who highlighted the excesses of the UPC regime while promoting his NRA. Museveni has always argued that religious leaders should not talk about political governance but when it comes to past religious leaders like Cardinal Nsubuga, Bishop Kivengere and now Archbishop Luwum, he treats them as religious icons because they stood up against the excesses of past political leaders.

Therefore, the current move by Museveni to highlight the recognition of the Late Archbishop Janan Luwum is an opportunistic scheme to bring the people of northern Uganda on board in his new-found NRM/Northern Uganda alliance of convenience. The other day he used the reburial of Erinayo Oryem in the same area to woo the population of that region. He intends to use the occasion to draw world attention on how he (Museveni) rescued Uganda from the jaws of past bad leadership hence justification for him to continue ruling.
