GEN TUMUKUNDE: Three quarters of your news bulletin @nbstv for example is on one candidate. You show him launching something, then his election rally, interview his officials before anything else.....is that what you call free access to the media?
@nbstv GEN MUNTU: I avoid confrontations because all you gain is publicity, nothing else. Beyond publicity, I need to actually get to the voters. All my effort is in how best to reach the voters at the least cost.
@nbstv GEN MUNTU: There has been a lot of interference. Some of us never expected it to be smooth anyway for we understand the mindset of the main candidate. The EC knew we had 146 districts, but gave us only 60 days, now a ban.
@nbstv GEN MUNTU: The Govt needs to read the mind of the population and de-escalate, instead of making it worse with a ban on campaigns now. Unless they start taking corrective measures, I think we have not yet seen the worst.
@nbstv GEN MUNTU: The two actions in 2004/5 and 2017, the lifting of term limits and age limit.... unless those who are running Government pull back, if we continue in this direction, there will be a heavy cost.
GEN TUMUKUNDE: In this election, the word 'candidate' does not mean the same for everybody. There are some 'candidates' and there are also 'others'....I think I belong to 'others'
MANDELA: A judiciary controlled entirely by whites and enforcing laws enacted by a white parliament in which we have no representation, cannot be regarded as an impartial tribunal in a political trial where an African stands as an accused
MAGISTRATE: After all is said and done, there is only one court today and that is the White Man's court. There is no other court. What purpose does it serve you to make an application when there is only one court. What court do you wish to be tried by?

As it is #Christmas today, will keep content light, jolly.....
All those hitting at my Archbishop, the pseudo intellectuals like OO @OfwonoOpondo , I will spare you today, but dare repeat the accusations 'outside today' ...then you will 'know' 😅😆😁
@OfwonoOpondo#Google, like the governments from the West in the case of @nickopiyo , want to dictate how we live our lives, what choices we make, what we can & cannot do....until they met South African former Deacon, freedom fighter & poet Mzwakhe Mbuli ! 😅😆😁
ALEX MUKULU: There should be no qualifications to become a Member of Parliament. MPs should be volunteers...people who have already succeeded in life and wish to assist others.
ALEX MUKULU: Each tribe recognized in the Uganda constitution should be represented by only 2 Members of Parliament. The parliament should be composed of not more than 108 people since Uganda has about 54 tribes.
On the surface, many will read, say a lot from the joint statement, but I trust Archbishop CK Lwanga's intentions. He's not loud, but consistent in passing on a message. Govt has often been critical of him.
For you, I will repeat what he said the last time he met the President.
Arch. CKL often gives a message without anyone even realizing he has said what he has said. He rarely speaks 'directly', and if he does, there will be a reason he has changed tactics.
The following thread was when he last met the president, and few realized what he had 'done'
ARCH LWANGA: We're here as members of IRCU @irc_uganda to offer end of year thanksgiving prayers, & also to pray for peace, protection & promotion of the needed fundamental & other human rights as stipulated in Chapter 4 of our national constitution.
