Opposition Tells Government To Sack Security Minister Tumwine And Internal Affairs Minister Jeje Odongo Over Failure To Stop Kidnapping And Murdering Of Innocent Ugandans By Unknown Thugs.

FDC spokesperson Ibrahim Nganda
The Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) said it is concerned by President Museveni’s government acute failure to stop the kidnapping and murdering in cold blood of helpless innocent Ugandans.
The murder of Mr. Joshua Nteyireho Ruhegyera, 38 and Ms. Tumukunde Merina, 37 on Thursday evening at Entebbe Express way happened exactly one week after the gruesome murder of NGO worker Ms. Maria Nagirinya, 28 and her driver Ronald Kitayimbwa, 35.
Addressing press at Najjanankumbi headquarters on Monday, FDC spokesperson Ibrahim Ssemujju Nganda listed murdered Ugandans who include the following mobile money agents; Harriet Nalwadda of Zana, Moreen Nakabuubi of Zana, Juliet Nabaasa of Nakulabye and Rebecca Namugenyi of Mukono.
Nganda said the excuse Mr. Museveni has been giving for his personal and his government failure to stop the murders has been funding.
“This is the excuse he gave in the state of nation address delivered on June 6th 2017.”
“…. These gaps were unattended to until recently, not because they were not known, but because of lack of funding on account of competing demands,” he said.
Since then the budgets of Police, Defence and ISO have dramatically gone up, Nganda noted.
The Ministry of Defence budget has increased from Shs 2 trillion of 2018/19 to Shs 6.9 trillion in the 2019/20 budget.
The Police budget has increased from Shs 666 billion to Shs 2 trillion. External Security Budget has increased from Shs 43 billion to Shs 134 billion and that of ISO is now at Shs 87 billion.
The above figures include a classified component of Shs 2.5 trillion.
“Cameras have been bought and installed. Local Defence personnel have been recruited, trained and deployed. How comes the murders and kidnaps are not relenting.”
FDC fears that this wave of insecurity might be perpetrated by elements within the security community to justify consumption of trillion of taxpayer’s money that has been allocated to this sector.
“Remember what happened during the Joseph Kony rebellion in northern Uganda. Executing that war become a business of many senior UPDF officers.”
“Mr. Museveni is almost distributing a billion shilling per day? Where does he get all this money?” Nganda noted.
He went on: “We want to encourage the families to take Mr. Museveni and his government to court for failing to protect their dear ones as the Constitution commands.”
He said FDC and other democracy seeking forces, will continue to struggle until this illegitimate and none functional regime has been removed.
The statement on Thursday last week of Internal Affairs Minister Gen. Abu Bakar Jeje Odongo offered no solution.
He blamed the murders on politics and insinuated that NRM competitors could be behind them.
He also rationalized loss of life saying there is no society free of crime.
Any functional government would have relieved people like Gen. Jeje Odongo and Gen. Elly Tumwine of their duties long ago.
These should join Gen. Kale Kayihura and Lt. Gen. Henry Tumukunde on katebe, Nganda resolved.

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.

https://m.facebook.com/yusufosuta/photos/a.1896701010557789/2070383359856219/?type=3 OPEN LETTER TO NRM SUPPORTERS - NATIONAL ROBBERS MOVEMENT. .................................................................................. 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...
