Former Ugandan President Iddi Amin Dada oneday called himself the Conqueror of the British Empire, fallen president Apollo Milton Obote banished kingships in Uganda leading to the exile of King Edward Muteesa II of Buganda. Napoleon Bonaparte of France oneday wanted to rule over Europe. Adolf Hitler the Great was a smart murder of his time, Muammar Gaddafi of Libya was a kind dictator…
All the mentioned world leaders above thought they were on top of this world just like some African presidents in Uganda, Rwanda, Angola and Zimbabwe think they are above the rule of law.
But all the above mentioned leaders died like chicken and goats with nothing around them, thats exactly the same way today’s African dictators will die and their families perish like a maize garden hit by Hurricane.
The police in Kampala on Monday brutally arrested the lawyer of Kampala Lord Mayor, Erias Lukwago and tore his clothes. In Uganda you are not arrested because you have a crime but you can equally be brutally harassed if president Museveni and his government wish so.
President Museveni launched a guerilla war against a ligitimate government of Uganda of then because it was violating rule of the law, democracy, respect for human rights.
But it is suprising to see the way Lukwago’s lawyer Abdullah Kiwanuka was beaten, tortured and his suit torn into pieces by Museveni’s Police. Kiwanuka was accused of serving Court junction to Kampala Minister to stop the government’s illegal impeachment of Lord Mayor.
