MILITARY RAIDS ON RELIGIONS IN WESTNILE PERSIST.

With great respect allow me to please wish Ugandans, Africans and World at large, a Beautiful Weekend.
The date today been Friday 9 November 2018, it was yet again another Military Raid on Religious Organizations.
I am writing this in Pain and teary eyes, as Military Raids on Our Religious Organizations in WestNile seem to alarmingly persist.
The mysterious events that unfolded today Friday 9 November 2018 on Our Muslim Brothers and Sisters at Mukhatari Mosque in Arua municipality was the Third incidence just in a spate of less than 5 years.
At the end of the article, i have also attached Files my Drones have Captured; the first file is a Drone Picture Zooming on Ediofe Cathedral, the second is an aerial view of Mukhatari Mosque and the Third is a photo file drones captured with the Military Soldiers Currently besieging Mukhatari Mosque.
The areas i have marked with Red inks, would need you to Zoom in so as well to view the Soldiers besieging the Mosque.

TIMELINES OF MILITARY RAIDS ON RELIGIONS IN WESTNILE.

On 22 September 2016, Soldiers and Police raided Ediofe Cathedral in Arua municipality after misunderstanding ensued between the Flocks, other Church Leaders, Sexton and Quires who turned against archbishop Ochan Odoki who was solely accused by the Youths, of masterminding Corruption Scandals and Mismanaging resources of Ediofe Cathedral.
Army Men with Police then intervened and Flogged majority of people, as they kept on Arresting the Youths who were protesting to see Archbishop Ochan Odoki is evacuated forcefully out of the Cathedral.

Not only that, a few years ago, a similar military raid was witnessed in JIAKO, Arua, when another controversy also erupted between the Preacher and Pastor.
As if the matter could be quelled, Army men intervened hence worsening the Chaos.

Last but not Least, the recent military raid is of Friday 9 November 2018 on Mukhatari Mosque Arua municipality.
It is rumoured that, there is currently a trending Controversy between the newly appointed Khadi and some Congregations.
As sought, the Congregations of Moslem Community at Mukhatari Mosque in Arua are against the newly appointed Khadi and they now want either the predecessor Khadi to resume back in Office or another one be appointed but apart from the currently embattled Khadi.

It all started as a Comedy, when the DISTRICT POLICE COMMANDER for Arua Municipality abruptly entered Mukhatari Mosque at around 1:30pm when People were for their Prayers.
Despite abiding by Dignity and Integrity, the DPC just straight away ordered everyone to stop Prayers and get out of the Mosque, as the Person leading the Prayers was also telling the Congregations not to go out.
Prayer was cut short when DPC came at Door and Commanded Soldiers plus Police to shoot Teargas inside the Mosque, which was complied.
From the accounts of eye witnesses, anyone who talks against the Raid, was beaten.

An unknown man (probably, a Christian), who wore descent soot, was waylaid on the rough dusty ground and mercilessly beaten just for saying in LUGBARA language "Ata eyo Asikari yi ni yoo di ma efi ngonia ri (translated, what does the Acts of these Soldiers mean)".

Another Victim, an innocent young boy selling eggs, lost all his 3 trays of eggs when he was caught up in the cross fire of the Fracus.

Several others were arrested and detained at Arua Police station on no clear charges.

Actually there might be some other Religious connected controversies but i may not or i may forgot to write them too here.

The above three are Military Raids on Our People in WestNile, counterfeit under Religious Disagreements which in fact, are not but the Government takes advantage of those to torture our People innocently.

That is it and all.

People are left wondering, how could such an inside disagreement among the top Religious Leaders and their Congregations spark intervention of Military Soldiers and Police to wage in full force attack on them.

1. Concerning Analysis of these Religion framed Raids, Should we ask Ourselves if Our Religious Leaders and Congregations are unable to dialogue and short final decisions to controversies amongst them?.

2. How could you be convinced to believe, how dying the situations were up to the extent it requires Teargas and Gunshots?.

3. Should we not say that, most of these army raids on Our People at Churches and Mosques are Politicised?.
Of Course, it doesn't even cost a doom to be convinced of WestNile region ever been under tight watch for trauma.

4. When the inner top system of Religious Leaders and Congregations fail to solve brawling err, should the conflict not to be brought for assessment dilution to the people outside the Congregation, Chapel, Mosque and specific Church system?. Or such matters could even be taken for solvent to Moslem Communities as they also take theirs to Christian Communities.

5. As Most Religious Leaders, are appointed by their Superiors,
Could we not suggest, such an inside Religious Wars about Leadership, not be subjected to Referendum if the appointed Preacher or Sheikh or Pastor or Khadi or Mufti or Archbishop is not to the best Satisfactions of the Congregations?.

6. Since, Courts of Law are entities entitled to hear and trial any grievances between aggrieved parties, should we not suggest such grievances in the Churches and Mosques to be Heard and Tried by Courts of Law?.

This way, we would see the true Light of God / Allah shinning on Our Religious Leaders, Congregations, Sheikhs, Pastors, Mosques and Churches rather than being routinely invaded by criminalised security system that not only invades to arrest aggrieved parties but to torture.

Taking a flashback on the Previous Governments, such a Consecutive Invasions on Churches and Mosques were never there at all in Uganda.
Even Amin Dada, being an ardent Moslem, never Raided and tortured Christians anyhow in daylight and the same is Milton Obote, having been a Christian, did not even deflected him to Counterattack Muslims in Uganda.

If there were some miner incidents during their Regime, it was never worse than this in Museveni Government.

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent.  It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu".  We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service.  If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Here is Why Our Utterances For Praying Jesus And God To Come Liberate Ugandans, May Be Misplaced. This Phrase is like inform of a Letter To Some Categorized Section Of Ugandans.

Last week of March, a friend told me to pray for Uganda.  I told him that he was an Idiot and we have prayed for too long and we are still hungry and sick and Jesus is not coming soon to liberate us. He then ignored the STUPID and sent me a picture we all now know.  It got me totally messed up.  This guy was telling me to pray then sends a picture of men bowing down in blood.  He might have meant guns but I blocked him because his utterances of praying for Uganda were misplaced. I unblocked him 3 weeks later and asked him about praying and assassinations.  His reply "eithrr prayers or guns or both". I hate violence with a passion.  So he is now blocked in like FOREVER. Do you feel safe?  Do not feel safe. Uganda regim...

Okello lost his wife 20 years ago and decided to only focus on their Mateo, Yona and Yosefu. 20 years later, Okello had 7 acres of land, a successful poultry business, and sinotrucks for hire. Early this year, Okello got a call telling him that one of his trucks knocked a boda boda. Okello decided to rush to see if he could sort it out before police became involved. Unfortunately, he never made it, as he was entering the main road, another trailer rammed into him and killed him instantly.   After Okello had been laid to rest, his sons sat down and divided the property amongst themselves. However, of late, Yosefu the last born has started complaining that he was cheated, and he wants to be given something else because most of the chicken in the chicken business died of a fever.   Can ...
