{UAH} Mixed Reactions as Bobi Wine Uses Fidel Castro Speech

Alan Barigye,

I think your man Bob Wine should try to be himself rather than ape or try to  wear the clothes of communists like Che Guevara and Fidel Castro. I dont think the man has a clue what marxism means or what communist ideology is all about. It just sounds so awful that he keeps comparing himself to them-. Just consider the  context of Castro'speech and its historic importance-  it  signaled the beginning of the armed insurrection in Cuba,  downfall of the Batista regime, and the establishment of the western hemisphere's first socialist state. This speech by Castro is the most famous court room speech ever made, later on to be followed by a similar speech by Nelson Mandela at the Rivonia Trial in 1963. In both trails,  Fidel Castro and Nelson Mandela, both of them lawyers,  were accused of being communists and master-minds of armed rebellion.. Both  were convicted of treason and sentenced to death- later commuted to life imprisonment. The trials also marked the beginning of seismic events that would change the world forever, namely the establishment of a socialist state in Cuba and the ensuing cold war that followed, ,and the end of the apartheid and white minority rule on the African continent. It is ridiculous for Bob Wine to try to put himself on a pedestal as high as this- despite the problems he is having with Kayibanda.. Idont know if he has advisors, but they are clearly not doing their job.

Bobby
