{UAH} History is Always said to be the Best teacher What a lesson?

Less we forget, today is 100 years since the birth of one of our African political and ideological hero the late ROLIHLAHLA Mandela Madiba Nelson (RIP) who was imprisoned for life in 1964. The South African anti – apartheid freedom fighter who was born on 18^th – July – 1918 and died on 5^th – December – 2013 and he spent 27 years in Robin Island prison. YES, let us not forget that the late Mandela Nelson (RIP) became a worldwide symbol of resistance to apartheid regime in the whole Southern African region even from inside the prison. But his opposition to racism began very many years before his imprisonment.  

Nevertheless, let us not forget that the late Mandela Nelson (RIP) was a man who used to preach about human right respects and tolerance with great thinking that, whole human beings are created equals in the Image of God our Creator! As we developed as human beings, frankly speaking, I think there is something very peculiar happening within the Swedish political paradigm and circles. At the face of it, Swedish politicians and, or opinion builders always, do talks and speaks in square tongues to say the least.  

The question is, why did the (M)oderaterna have to discriminate Anna Maria Kindberg Batra from being its leader or there was something else which made them develop cool feet? Today, they want Ulf Hjalmar Kristersson, (M) to work with (SD) as per the latest opinion builders and, or opinion polls.

Again, frankly speaking, as Swedish voters, I think we are not stable as per monthly opinion polls by the political media house focuses. The disturbing question is how would (SD) have very high political percentages meanwhile the same (SD) could not put their representatives in the all political constituencies in the whole country? One wonders how the (SD) could be a majority political party when it cannot fill the all political seats in the districts and county councils in Sweden. 

Sadly, political pundits seem in real sense to be reliving in a similar situations which was put in a poem by Pastor Martin Niemöller, who is perhaps best remembered for his quotation in German under Nazism administration of Adolf Hitler.

First they came for the socialists, and

I did not speak out –because

I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists,

and I did not speak out – because

I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and

I did not speak out –

Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me – and there

was no one left to speak for me. 

 

Sorry, for younger readers in Sweden, (SD) is a racist political party founded on anti- immigrant philosophy with the doctrine of Nazism and, or Ku Klux Klan (KKK) background. At the face of it, Swedish politicians and, or opinion builders always do talk in square tongues to say the least.

Lastly, today is again 50 years since the birth of the late Pastor Dr. Martin Luther King Junior (RIP) who had the very temerity to eulogised his own death speech in some sort of a poem thus; I have a Dream in Washington D.C. before his death in 1968. I have a Dream Speech was delivered on the steps of the LINCOLN Memorial on 28^th – August – 1963. Pastor Martin Luther King Jr, was born on 29^th – January – 1929, but murdered on 4^th – April – 1968 in Memphis Tennessee just only 39 years old.

My last call for the whole Ugandan in Sweden please go and vote for the political parties those have human faces for the oncoming general elections on Sunday the 09^th – 09 – 2018.
