{UAH} WHY BOBIWINE CAN'T HANDLE THE GUN WIELDING MAD OLD MAN WITHOUT PLUNGING THE COUNTRY INTO DEEPER TURMOIL

WHY BOBI WINE CAN'T HANDLE THE GUN WIELDING MAD OLD MAN WITHOUT PLUNGING THE COUNTRY INTO DEEPER TURMOIL

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Apparently there are two contradicting accounts of how Frank Senteza breathed his last. The Bobiwine camp says the deceased was run over by a military truck; on the other hand, the UPDF spokesperson says he fell off a speeding vehicle. I don't trust either source of the two contradicting versions. Nevertheless, may the soul of the departed rest in peace.

At this momentous epoch, permit me to recognize Rtd. Col. Dr. Kizza Besigye

 for loving Uganda above self. The great doctor of this land appreciated that only Ugandans should solve their issues without Western power involvement.  I am a registered voter in Rubaga South, Kampala. For purposes of clarity, I will vote Patrick Amuriat Oboi for President, Dr. Stella Nyanzi for Kampala Woman MP, Owek. Joyce Ssebuggwawo for Mayor, among others.

Bobiwine started his quest to presidency on a wrong note.

Instead of taking lessons from KB's experiences throughout his 20 year quest to bring down the rogue regime, he attacked the legacy of Dr. KB, branded him a failure; actually some of his cronies branded him a mole. As a person who had paid keen attention to the sacrifices made by Dr. KB for a time long enough, that's when Bobiwine lost my trust. He presides over the most intolerant cult that has disgraced Africa's recent political past.

To date, except the removal of M7 from power,  Bobiwine's handlers have not presented any clear road map of where they see Uganda after they ascend to power.

Honestly, I am personally so interested in ending the M7's 35 year old rule BUT I am more interested in having someone better to succeed him. AND I am not so desperate to take someone worse for a choice.

Is Bobiwine, the better option to M7? I THINK NOT. In fact if I were faced with only two choices, I would choose M7 over Bobiwine to be my next President.

MAKING SENSE OF FRANK'S DEATH

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

DOES the death of SENTEZA FRANK mean the much it should have meant?

Painfully, the death of Frank doesn't mean much to the Bobiwine camp! In fact, Frank and many more are the sacrifices that must be made before Western powers can come to Uganda to SPOIL the little we would have taken from the M7 government.

Whoever watched the clip of Bobiwine shed tears at Lubaga Hospital yesterday may think he was crying for SENTEZA! This is partly true but substantially untrue. Infact Bobiwine was wondering how many more will die before Western powers pull the plug on the regime!!! Bobiwine is willing to sacrifice as many as will be enough to entice Europe to end the 35 year old rule. This in itself means that unlike Dr. KB, Bobiwine doesn't think Ugandans have the courage and bravery to end the M7 rule.

First and foremost, the Western powers are not going to come! Secondly, even if they did, their only achievement would be bringing down M7 and nothing more. Ask yourself if Libya is better now than when Ghadaffi was the president!!!!! It isn't in fact worse. I very much understand Bobiwine's urge to enter the State House; it is however not worth the sacrifice. I am deeply broken by the fact that Bobiwine didn't think it important to build on the legacy of Dr. KB; he chose to start the revolution afresh and thus trashed the lives lost during the 20 years of KB's quest for a functional democracy.

In my humble opinion, Bobiwine is a great artist but a naive and confused politician. Why did he instigate yesterday's confrontation with security forces? When he vowed to win Pres. M7 at the ballot, did he expect a levelled ground for his campaigns? If he did then he is not a good student of history. If he vowed to go to the polls, why is he patient enough to go to the ballot on the 14th January, 2021. He seems to be torn between two strategies; KBs and his own. He wants to go to the ballot and win BUT at the same time he wants to defy.

Whereas by suspending campaign meetings, the Electoral Commission issued illegal directives, it is incumbent upon whoever chose to go to the polls to follow them or challenge them in Court.

On this note, I don't expect anyone (including POA and Bobiwine) to continue convening campaign meetings in the 12 districts where the same were illegally suspended lest they are at least partly the cause of any ensuing bloodshed.

Honestly, M7 has never won Kampala district in recent political history. Bobiwine's coming to Kampala wouldn't add much to his political fame AFTER ALL he seemingly has no message to give except the removal of M7. Bobiwine is bound to win Kampala whether he campaigns or not. I don't see why Bobiwine wants to be the angel of death if his intention is anything more than enticing Western powers at the expense of Ugandans' lives!!!

PREDICTION

For purposes of better planning for the opposition, the following are very likely moves that we need to be wary of;

On January 14, curfew hours may start a lot earlier.

We may be asked not to leave our homes for about 4 days succeeding the announcement of the results.

Bobiwine, Amuriat, Dr. KB, Lukwago will most probably be under house arrest.

The Western powers(EU Observers) will issue a  strong statement to the effect that the election would not have been free and fair.

Amuriat will take M7 and EC to court and 4 out of the 7 Justices of the Supreme Court will rule in favour of M7.

M7 will be sworn in and we shall have another 5 painful years of corruption.

THE ONLY ALTERNATIVE is the rise of Ugandans and ONLY Ugandans to solve the Ugandan issues.

WHEREAS we need change; we deserve better than a BOBIWINE change.

In the meantime, brothers and sisters stop throwing BUCKETS at   security officers because they may in turn throw BULLETS.
