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.

For four decades, dictator Museveni has mastered one brutal political art: elevate allies, squeeze every ounce of usefulness from them, then discard them the moment they become inconvenient, ambitious, or too powerful.
No loyalty is ever enough.
The pattern has repeated itself so many times that it no longer looks accidental, it looks deliberate.
The comrades who fought beside him in the bush war, the ministers who defended his rule, the generals who protected his regime, the police chiefs who silenced dissent, and the parliamentary loyalists who carried his agenda have all learned the same painful lesson: in Museveniโs system, everybody is disposable.

She rose rapidly through the system, fiercely defended the establishment, consolidated power in Parliament, and became one of the most influential political figures in Uganda. But after corruption allegations, internal NRM battles, sanctions, investigations, and growing political pressure, cracks began to show around a figure once seen as untouchable.
The script feels painfully familiar.
Rise fast. Defend the system aggressively. Become powerful. Then suddenly become isolated when the political winds change.
What makes Museveniโs political style so feared is not simply that he removes people. It is how easily he moves on from those who sacrificed everything for him.
Decades of loyalty can vanish overnight.
A puppet bootlicker can spend years imprisoning so-called opponents for the regime, only to later find himself/herself abandoned by the same system he protected.
A minister can defend every constitutional amendment, every crackdown, every controversial policy โ only to be dropped, investigated, or politically erased when no longer useful.
That is the cold reality many critics say defines Museveniโs rule: power is personal, loyalty is transactional, and survival matters more than gratitude.
Ugandaโs political history is now littered with former insiders who once believed they were indispensable. Despot Museveni proved they were not.
