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.

Tarehe Sita: Power-hungry Museveni’s Lie of “Liberation”
As we mark the 45th Tarehe Sita anniversary at Kabale National Teachers’ College under the theme “Defending the Gains of the Revolution and Honouring the Sacrifice of the Freedom Fighters,” our country, Uganda 🇺🇬 is invited, once again to applaud a story that has never matched our reality.
For nearly half a century, Power-hungry criminal TIBUHABURWA has wrapped himself in the language of revolution while (mis)ruling through fear, force, intimidation and permanent emergency.
If terrorism is the systematic use of violence, intimidation and repression to control a population and silence dissent, then Uganda’s longest-ruling ruthless dictator fits the definition more closely than any other criminal on the continent.
A revolution is supposed to end terror, not normalize it. Yet under criminal Museveni, violence became policy. Elections are ritualized coercion. Expression is met with batons and live bullets. Journalists are tortured, arrested or whisked to rot in dungeons so-called “safe houses”.
Decent political opponents are harassed, abducted and illegally tried by military courts. Citizens are harassed through repeated brutality to fear the state that claims to protect them.
Museveni’s record beyond Uganda’s borders deepens the indictment. His wars in the region especially in Eastern DRC, left millions dead and destabilized an entire subcontinent. International courts documented plunder, proxy militias and atrocities.
No apology. No accountability. Only denial and the insistence that this, too, was “defending his gains.”
At home, the economy tells another story of terror by corruption, indifference and neglect. Youth unemployment is chronic. Corruption is systemic. Public services rot while a narrow elite prospers.
When young people speak up, they are branded criminals. When teachers, doctors and workers demand dignity, they are dispersed with tear gas and live bullets. Poverty is policed; wealth is protected.
Tarehe Sita has become a ceremony of selective memory. The sacrifice of genuine freedom fighters is invoked to sanctify a permanent ruler. The word “revolution” is used to justify dynastic ambition.
“Gains” are defended by crushing the very citizens who were promised freedom.
Museveni’s longest legacy is not stability—it is the normalization of coercion. Not peace—but the quiet of fear. Not liberation—but a state that treats its people as enemies.
After 45 years, the question is no longer whether the revolution succeeded. It is whether Uganda can finally be freed from the monster who turned a liberation struggle into a lifetime project of looting and control.
History is clear: the greatest terror is not always a bomb. Sometimes it is a government that never lets its people breathe. Enough is Enough, this power-hungry criminal despot Museveni must go and the time is now.
