My Sacrifices to Serve Our Country Uganda Were Unappreciated - Retired Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Omala Reiterates.



Retired Assistant Commissioner of Police, Sam Omala, has said that the work he did for the Uganda Police was not appreciated enough.

Omala said that the passion and dedication he put into his job was worth “political gratification” but he has not been remembered.

Omala made these remarks while appearing on NBS Television’s “NBS Ku Katebe” news segment.

Omala said, “I was a real fighter, but they did not remember any of my efforts. I used to work, but the credit would always go to my bosses. I slept at Besigye’s gate for seven days during ‘Walk to Work’ protests but none of that was remembered.”

Omala said that his job in the Uganda Police was a “job beyond salary” with a lot of challenges. He said that were it not for him and the late Andrew Felix Kaweesi, this government would not be here today.

“The Uganda Police was very disjointed at the time, enemies of the National Resistance Movement (NRM) were so many at the time, and if we did not stand on our two legs to say “NO”, this government would have collapsed at that time,” Omala said.

Blames Kayihura

Omala recalled a time when opposition politicians tried to bribe him with shs 200 million to leave the ‘Walk to Work’ protests, but he reported them to his boss Kale Kayihura who was the IGP at the time.

“I told Kayihura about these people, he did not give me a conclusive answer, and when I realised that he was still not decisive, I said “NO” to this offer and made it difficult for them. I continued with my work,” Omala said.

Omala said that may be things would have been different if Kayihura had told President Museveni about this incident.

He said, “Maybe he did not want to build my name, police officers were known to be corrupt but I said no to shs 200 million, I believe the president would have gratified me, I blame Kayihura.”

Omala  said that he is not bitter because life goes on.

Omala, now retired, said that he is engaged in his private businesses and he is proud of the service he rendered to this country during his time in police.

Omala retired in March 2020 when he clocked 60 years of age.

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 ...
