President Yoweri Museveni is a firm believer in African integration.
While speaking to East Africa Legislative Assembly during the opening
ceremony of its ordinary session in Kampala on Tuesday, the President
said that his Minister of State for East Africa Community Affairs,
Julius Wandera Maganda could be a Kenyan. He hails from the boarder
district of Busia.
The President said that once there was a Vice President in Republic of
Kenya called Moody Awori , whose brother in Uganda Aggrey Awori wanted
to be President in 2001 but, President Museveni defeated him.
The President said some of his ministers from the North could not tell
well their origins but he said that they could be Sudanese. While Gen.
Moses Ali First Deputy Prime Minister and Deputy Leader of Government
Business was naturalized as a Ugandan in 1988 on advice of President
Yoweri Museveni after his mentor, the late Felix Onama, insisted that
he was not Ugandan but a Sudanese refuge, other people whispered other
names not from West Nile and Madi, but from North proper.
The President also told us that the new Speaker of East Africa
Legislative Assembly, Martin K. Ngoga, was a Rwandan refuge born in
Bukoba District Kagera region, United Republic of Tanzania, and
therefore could be a Muhaya, ancient immigrants from present day
Ankole-Bunyoro-Tooro region in Uganda.
He emphasized fraternity or African brotherhood as one of the reasons
for regional integration, in addition to market, unity and strategic
reasons.
The induction was opened by the speaker on Monday who complained that
the regional integration process has left out the people.
On Wednesday morning, the EALA members were addressed by the former
Secretary General of EAC Col. Nuwe Amanya Mushega, and former speakers
Abdi Abdul Rahman and Dan Kidega, among others. It will continue
tomorrow.
