{UAH} DON'T RUSH TO CALL HON.NABILAH A MOLE IN FDC!

Friends,

There is plenty of bizarre known-to-be-made-up claims flying from some people that Hon.Nabilah Naggayi Sempala is a spy in FDC. These are extraordinary claims that require extraordinary evidence. I just think that we need to learn to be more tolerant of what others say,obviously apart from Brother Abdu Katuntu who seems a bit weird in his statements.

Just to confuse everybody, I'm not really sure what a mole is here. "Links" don't prove conspiracy; they just indicate that it's likely or at least possible. Next you'll be telling us that Besigye is also working for NRM which, for all practical purposes, it isnt true.

For what it's worth,It's not suprising to me that this same message shows up periodically on several forums at about the same time every year after or before presidential elections. And its understandable because there are people who stood on opposition ticket, and trying to build bridges with those in government. Then they are those who 'accidentally' stood for presidency, like Mr. Mbabazi, and are now reportedly trying to go back where they have always felt confortable.

I don't discount the possibility that there are spies in FDC or any of the political parties, because spies are everywhere. The least person suspected to be a spy actually turns out to be the real one. For instance, there was a British radio producer called Guy Burgess, who was working with the BBC in the 1940s. He was a spy for the British Intelligence but nobody suspected him because he mainly portrayed himself as a POKOPOKO guy, like our Andrew M. Mwenda, who has become famous for making noise on radio and social media attacking Besigye.

I remember when Andrew used to attack the Museveni and his family(1990s-2006), and I thought there's a man with real balls.Oh God, I liked the guy. I literally became a matching mole fan at that point, and i'm sure a lot of oppositionists fell into his crawls, didnt they? What's odd is that all this still resonates in my consciousness somewhere, that how come nobody saw this at the time? How come we all concentrated mainly on his 'attacks' rather than the people he associated with (Gen.Salim Saleh, Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba,e.t.c)? Is it possible he was already on the payroll then, but most of us didnt know at the time? Well, that's for Andrew to answer but,it simply just shows that its difficult to pinpoint a spy or mole or whatever, just by 'links' or association, unless one has got concrete evidence.

That's why I think that sister Nabilah's utterances present a good opportunity for education. Is it that important that the most popular and trusted opposition figure is replaced by anybody right now in the name of building strong parties? Is it really a priority for Ugandans who are fed up of Museveni? Can Nabila explain what mistakes will come out of a continuation of a Besigye candidacy or presidency in FDC, and where it grates on the ear? To my admittedly unsophisticated ear, it sounds better than having another person right now who will end up just being a 'show' on a ballot paper or a 'sell-out', as we've seen in the past.Therefore, FDC members should be careful not to be seen to be directly attacking Besigye, because I dont think he deserves it. This 'Nabilah Naggayi Sempala' debate is healthy but it should not be a condemnation of Besigyeism, or his intentions for the country!

Byebyo ebyange banange!
