Generals, Sejusa and Kayihura are been Denied Retirement as Museveni Retires 19 UPDF Generals.

By Editor
President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, who doubles as the Commander In Chief (CIC) of the Uganda Peoples Defense Forces (UPDF) on Monday retired 19 Generals.
According to the UPDF’s mouth piece Brig.Richard Karemire, 19 generals have been cleared to retire this year and have been awarded certificates as a token of thanks for their contribution to the national army and their country Uganda.
Some of the General that have been retired include; Lt Gen. Joram Mugume, Lt. Gen. Ivan Koreta and Brig Gen Ramadan Kyamulesire, the longest-serving UPDF Chief of Legal Services; Maj Gen Timothy Sabiiti Mutebile, the Chief of UPDF Engineering and Construction; Brig Gen Charles Angulo Wacha, the UPDF Director of Human Rights; Brig Gen Sam Kakuru, the Deputy Chief of Personnel and Administration, Brig Gen Mathew Ssewankambo; Maj. Gen. Jimmy Wills Byarugaba; Maj. Gen. Sam Wasswa Mutesasira; Brig. Gen. Gyagenda Kibirango; Brig. Gen. Tom Tumuhairwe; Maj. Gen. Ambrose Musinguzi; Brig. Gen. Mulondo and Brig. Gen. John Mulindwa.
However, we have learnt that although former Inspector General of Police Gen. Edward Kalekezi Kayihura aka Kale and Gen. David Sejusa aka Tinyefunza, the former coordinator of intelligence services had expected to be retired too, this wasn’t the case as they didn’t appear on the list of retirees.
The army said the controversial military officers’ retirement would be considered in the future.
The UPDF spokesperson Brig. Richard Karemire confirmed Sejusa’s retirement plan is on but will not be executed this year.
“He has not been considered for retirement in this batch. In future, he could,” Karemire said.
According to the army’s retirement plan, Sejusa had been lined up for retirement this year alongside other senior military officers such as former Air Force commander, Maj. Gen. Sam Turyagyenda and the commander of the Army’s engineering brigade, Maj. Gen. Timothy Sabiiti Mutebile, among others.
Some of the retiring generals have already launched bids to run for political office ahead of the 2021 general elections.
Recently, Maj. Gen. Sabiiti Mutebile declared his intention to contest for Kabale municipality seat once he retires from the army.

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

By Editor
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...

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...
