I need to consult with the revolutionary M7 I met as we waited for a lift in Moshi Hotel during the Moshi Conference in Tanzania where Ugandans met under the auspices of Tanzania Government to plan the future leadership of the post Amin Uganda despite the war still going on then in 1979.
I met a straight forward man who impressed me as the messiah we wanted to get Uganda out of the abyss and also help propel Uganda to the heights we would achieve freedom for all, an awakening for all the African people to resolve the problem of Africa.
This problem is defined by affliction of poverty, lack of unity of purpose to defend and guide the African to spearhead the economic transformation of the African People that can be derived by first creating regional and foremost military blocks, real economic blocks that would be dictated by requirements of the people.
Regrettably the so called political blocks; are merely created to give the African leaders ( I am sorry to say most of them are merely looters and plunderers of the economic resources of our Continent ) rostrums from which to look at each other and say to each other ; and say that I am in charge and you are in charge don't disturb my power! After all I have my power and you have your power.
None of them is ready to hear that the Eastern and Central and Southern Africa military and Security Command is under one of the regional presidents and that the battalion around his state house is comprised of different nationalities from the block other than those who are predominantly closer to him by tribe, ethnic or those officers and men whom he has by money and otherwise through a well choreographed patronage system!Those who defy it suffer irreparable damage! They can never be promoted!
I would love to meet and confer with the hero I met in M7 when I interacted with him a bit in Moshi and interacted with him a bit more closely in 1979 in Kampala immediately after Amin fell. What a soothing revolutionary I met!
Indeed no wonder I wrongly thought he was the messiah that Uganda needed to get it from the abyss! I found his views about the future Uganda I espoused to have were the same as the ones I had and I still have up to today! Unfortunately there are not many Ugandans that I have met espouse the right agenda! This calls for the youths of today to go back to the drawing board to ponder and think more seriously about the liberation of Uganda and indeed our African continent.
I don't want to meet the M7 that entered Kampala in 1986! That one had changed from the one I had interacted with in 1979 in Moshi (by the way during the Moshi Conference ) and later in Kampala late in the same year.
. They are two different persons in terms of their ideological views on which I define them!
If I am to write about how absolute power corrupts leaders absolutely ; M7 will be my clear specimen of analysis.
However I have people like Mzee Keneth Kaunda of of Zambia who will be my control or my point of reference as one of the African leaders who did not drink opium out accessing and ascending to power!
And I Wish I can meet the M7 I met in 1979! May be he would help Uganda to save itself and indeed save Ugandans and himself by helping it to position itself to an appropriate pedestal from which to leap to a new era of being the champion to unite it's people and position itself as the champion and guiding country to champion the Awakening of the African People to break the yokes of poverty, failure to plan prudently and appropriately and yet other members of the human race do it successfully to serve their interests!
Indeed if I met the M7 who I thought was the M7 I had mistakenly thought espoused the same ideological revolutionary views I have, I would be happy to meet an excellent partner. But is the Revolutionary still there? No now there is a different one!
Let the young Generation join us to lift Uganda and indeed Africa from where it was betrayed by the person I had thought was my hero.
