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 faรงade 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 peopleโmassacres, 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 needsโhospitals with doctors and equipment, schools that actually educate, and protection from armed herdsmen trampling their landsโMuseveni’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 displaysโthey deserve justice, dignity, and the chance to rebuild their lives.

Over the past four decades, Uganda has projected an image of being the most insecure and violent in the region thanks to the power-greedy despot octogenarian Museveni.
Recently, there is also a growing number of violent incidents, political crackdowns and organized criminal activities suggest that public security is becoming an increasing concern for many Ugandans.
Uganda’s security agencies reported that at least 2500 people were killed during the first quarter of the year alone, with authorities warning of increases in murders, aggravated robberies, and organized criminal activity.
Relatedly, the United States of America (USA) ๐บ๐ธ has placed Uganda under its highest Level 4: Do Not Travel advisory. ๐บ๐ธ๐บ๐ฌ
USA warns Americans against visiting the country due to concerns over crime, terrorism, civil unrest, and the recent Ebola outbreak.
We have also witnessed several high-profile incidents that have shaken public confidence. In January, at least 97 people were killed during clashes following the disputed general election, as security forces confronted opposition supporters. The unrest was accompanied by arrests, internet restrictions, and heightened military deployment across Kampala and other areas.
Beyond politically related violence, ordinary Ugandans continue to face disturbing criminal attacks.
In April, a horrific mass stabbing at a nursery school in Kampala claimed the lives of four young children, exposing concerns over public safety and emergency response. Authorities later arrested and convicted the suspect.
Human rights organizations have also expressed concern over what they describe as an increasingly restrictive security environment. Reports cite arbitrary arrests, intimidation of journalists, suppression of protests, and heavy handed treatment of opposition figures, raising questions about the balance between national security and civil liberties.
Crime statistics tell only part of the story. Many Ugandans increasingly report intense fear of armed robberies, kidnappings, home invasions, rape and violent assaults, particularly in urban centres.
International security assessments similarly note that while overall reported crime has fluctuated, homicides and robberies remain significant threats.
We can no longer sustaining investor confidence and protecting citizens will require stronger policing, improved intelligence, accountable security institutions, and greater respect for the rule of law – all which Dictator Museveni deliberately destroyed.
Restoring public trust will be just as important as reducing crime statistics. The true measure of national security is not only the absence of conflict, but whether ordinary citizens can go about their daily lives without fear.
Enough is Enough with Musevenism!
