Senile Museveni forget Acholi is part of Uganda
Senile Museveni forget Acholi is part of Uganda
The Acholi sub-region is drowning in poverty and despair, yet the aging despot Museveni seems oblivious to the suffering of these Ugandan citizens. With 60% of the population in Acholi living in absolute poverty and education levels disastrously low, the glossy façade of Gulu City is nothing but a cruel illusion. Venture beyond its borders to places like Koch Lii village, and the harsh reality of Museveni’s neglect becomes painfully clear.
Since 1986, when Museveni clawed his way to power through violence in an election he didn’t win, Acholi has been ravaged by war and abandoned by those in power. Under his watch, both the LRA and his NRA/UPDF forces unleashed unspeakable horrors on the people—massacres, rapes, mass displacements, and the plundering of livestock. Decades later, Museveni’s regime has done nothing to compensate those who endured these atrocities. Instead, it continues to sow distrust by allegedly eliminating prominent Acholi leaders like General Lokech, Colonel Ochola, and the late Rt. Hon. Jacob Oulanyah.
Moreover, while the region cries out for basic needs—hospitals with doctors and equipment, schools that actually educate, and protection from armed herdsmen trampling their lands—Museveni’s regime has the audacity to spend UGX 5 billion on parliamentary extravagance in Gulu. This grotesque display of corruption only underscores how out of touch the regime is with the real, dire needs of the people.
Forests are being destroyed for charcoal, young girls are being forced into marriages by poverty-stricken families, and armed Balalo herdsmen, seemingly supported by the regime, are displacing communities and grazing cattle on land that belongs to the struggling wanainchi. The challenges facing Acholi are immense, yet Museveni’s government continues to treat them as an afterthought.
It’s high time the regime acknowledges the plight of the Acholi and takes real action to address the decades of neglect and abuse. Northern Uganda has suffered long enough under the weight of Museveni’s indifference and corruption. The people of Acholi deserve more than empty promises and flashy displays—they deserve justice, dignity, and the chance to rebuild their lives.

SOS: Urgent action needed to halt Museveni’s borrowing spree as Uganda’s public debt hits Shs106 trillion
Gen Yoseri Tibuhaburwa Kagutema a.k.a Museveni, fully aware that his days in State House are numbered, is shamelessly accumulating loans in Uganda’s name to enrich himself and his inner family. Obviously, the shocking reality is that poverty-stricken Ugandans will ultimately bear the burden of repaying these debts.
The recent figures from the Ministry of Finance show that Uganda’s public debt has now reached alarming and unprecedented levels, standing at UGX 106 trillion ($28.3 billion), equivalent to 54% of GDP. Just last year, the debt was $26.56 billion (Shs96.6 trillion).
It is worth recalling that Greedy Dictator Museveni once declared that he does not serve Ugandans but works for himself and his family. A clear example is the 2024/25 Financial Year budget, which allocates a staggering UGX 1 trillion to the residence of Museveni and his wife.
Breaking down this budget for the lavish lifestyle of the two aging rulers, it translates to UGX 2.8 billion spent daily, UGX 120 million per hour, and over UGX 2 million per second. May God have mercy!
This ruthless and autocratic regime continues to siphon trillions of the hard earned taxpayer money while Uganda sinks deeper into poverty and foreign debt. Currently, every Ugandan carries a debt burden of UGX 2.6 million.
Fellow Ugandans, it is evident that Museveni is deliberately destroying our country but how much longer shall we tolerate this deliberate destruction of our nation by an aging ruler desperate to cling to power?
This corrupt, power-hungry dictatorship must come to an end.
