The case for presidential term limits in #Uganda part three:
An average (National Resistance Movement) NRM die
hard is above 39 years old, somewhat successful or seeking opportunity in a
Govt office to earn a living: most of
its member’s do not agree with the party’s current positions!
The opposition leadership is dull and lacks the
capacity to organize the kind of muscle that can catch the NRM blinking.
Not
only do they lack money to fund against the NRM’s unlimited campaign fund, they
lack organizational skills to form a common grassroots campaign that can motive
the majority of Ugandans (Youth) to believe in their Manifesto: While the NRM
gains as many supporters as it looses: the opposition is still finding its
position and actually loosing members to the NRM.
Politics in Uganda is more about personality than
any other one thing: the fact is also that the members elected reflect the
electorate: mainly peasants, poor and uneducated people make up the majority of
Uganda’s electorate and therefore makeup Uganda’s politicians: people are
rarely voted because they can lead and bring about difference in their
community rather it is based on fame and name or tribal ties: it is a luxury
only afforded to people in places where everyone knows their name: politics is
tribal in all regions of Uganda therefore good candidates are overlooked over
favored tribal kin.
Yoweri knows this and the only way Uganda can have a
peaceful transition of presidents is through restoration of term limits….the
question is can the current NRM leadership deliver and put country first
instead of person first: send Yoweri peacefully in retirement and have a new
NRM president before Ugandan becomes God’s frozen people!
Well as far as am concerned we're now officially a Rwakitura kingdom no more Uganda coz at this point everything is termed as "my" from army to country's natural resources all belong to the president. He say he can't leave the country to wolves (opposition) which sounds rather sick he thinks he will live forever.
