2lines of thought emerged on the strategy that shd be adopted:
Some advocated a coup d’etat others advocated a protracted people’s war
They,later formed the Popular Resistance Fighters [and went on] to form the National Resistance Movement and Army,rejected the strategy of a coup.The main point against staging a coup was the presence of Tanzanian troops in Uganda which could always be reinforced from TZ . 2/20
By trying to capture the radio station and take power in one day, they would have been making a gift of theseselves to the Tanzanians, since they had already decided to become backers of Obotes’s dictatorship. 3/20
