(I.P.C) DIALOG, Future President Reporting 4 U!
10:00 Hrs GMT ,23rd Sep 2009 right in the parliamentary conference hall are clergy men, states men, steak-holders, the voices of the voiceless from different constituencies, international diplomats, men and women of vigor, substance and stature seated down in the name of IPC, call it Inter-Party Cooperation. I am privileged having been invited back to Parliament following yesterday’s hot debate rolling on Political Tolerance and Multi-Party Dispensation as we marked the U.N annual Inter-Parliamentary Youth Debates.
Hundreds of young men and women representing there parties and universities participated. I am obliged to extend my deep heartfelt vote of thanks to the Ugandan Parliament with the support of the U.N for having organized this important extra ordinary event.
I witnessed the Public Relations Manager Mrs. Helen Kawesa alongside her team gracing us with each a blown envelope containing a minimum of US $ 5 not forgetting a heavy lunch and breakfast to all the 300 delegates. 7 (40s) minutes after my arrival People’s Progressive Party (PPP) boss/Former Minister of local Government Hon Mzee Wakazi Bidandi Ssali arrives and he is joining his fellow eagles on the main table. Amongst his colleagues is UPC Hajji Badru for Mama Miria Kalule Obote the party president who is in another important meeting; Next is Justice Forum (JEEMA) boss Hon Kibirige Mayanja, Conservative Party President/ IPC chairman John Ken Lukyamuzi (The Man) also chairing this dialog, Then Forum For Democratic Change (FDC) boss Col Dr Warren Kizza Besigye, Democratic Party (D.P) president John Ssebana Kizito & finally at the extreme right corner of the table is Leader of Opposition in Parliament Prof Ogenga Latigo In the audience are two antagonistic tables and on right are delegates from the IPC and on the left are MPs then at the lower ends are delegates still. Being the next M.P Kampala Central come 2011, I have no option than to sit with my fellow MPs. Actually I have no time but to take you directly in the proceedings of this significant dialog and I am doing journalism work in exclusion of my participation just because I want it to be drawn to you. Right now Hon Mayanja is moving towards pulpit and in many important remarks he is making, I’ll extract a few for time sake. JEEMA boss has pointed out one f the proposed electro reforms that will give women an increment in regards to the present trend in which they it becomes difficult for them to execute their duties just because they serve many constituencies in a single entire district. “In case there representation in parliament is increased then there role will be off loaded some how.” He says. “I am sure if NRM would be in opposition today the proposed reforms would agitate for but the fact that it’s in power, its double standard.” He continues. Looking the current stories Mayanja wonders how a demonstrator can be charged and sentenced over terrorism. “Unless we work together, the chance of democracy to some in this country is at stake” he laments. And how we make is making sure the next parliament may not be dominated by the NRMs. He concludes by calling upon all his colleagues who haven’t joined the cooperation to so. But just before his intellectual diplomatic address, Col Besigye in his detailed remarks has emphasized a multiplicity of issue basing on the current winds of intimidation, suppression, torture, bad governance and all forms of constitutional & human rights violation speared by the current government of president Museveni that the time is now, he must go! Dr Besigye has criticized the NRM government for harassing, arresting and imprisoning journalists and members of press alongside mental and physical torture. “ I call upon Ugandans wherever there, be it in places of worship, in there own groups and homes to remain vibrant over the different things that Museveni and his men are have to you. You must boycott all government media, all news papers-New Vision, Bukedde, Olumuri, Etop , there radio stations Bukedde & New vision, Radio West and there UBC television. You must not give them adverts nor get hold of you money from your wallets and buy there products because no body force to buy, its your own money; Stop, stop! Till when they have established and independent media. They must reopen CBS and all other Fm stations. Continue to advocate for your rights and insist on constitutional and governance. FDC boss continued to spit fire against Museveni whom he claims-he’s an embarrassment and yolk to our country. “He must go, Uganda must be free.” He insists. Still before The Man would chair the dialog, he had to deliver his written speech to House and in his speech that many have regarded as a “time bomb” he has said we have no extra time left to contain all Museveni “brutality and arrogance.” “Museveni must understand that rights, natural rights are not grunted but must be respected and protected & the same to our magnificent constitution.”The vocabulary of CBS and other Fm stations closed by the Government has not missed anywhere; in fact he has felt like crying! He has honestly cursed Museveni and his people in government for making Uganda a failed state. John Ken Lukyamuzi wasn't’t afraid to declare in remission of president Museveni`s 1982 bush war under circumstances of malpractice exhibiting in the then elections that “if he’s not aware, we too can resort to the bush when he rigs again, I can command”
