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.

It all started with Despot Museveni sleeping with Winnie Byanyima, wife to Dr. Kizza Besigye.
Octogenarian Museveni started harassing Besigye openly, and looking for all possible ways to eliminate him by dragging him in prison cells and and kangaroo courts over crafted cases.
Today, when Besigye appeared frail in court struggling after months of torture in detention, it was more than a troubling image.
It was a portrait of what many believe Uganda’s justice system has become under tyrant Museveni: a tool for torturing political opponents to death rather than protecting the rule of law.
Besigye is no ordinary opposition politician. A physician, retired colonel and Museveni’s bushwar personal doctor. Besigye has spent decades challenging the man who has ruled Uganda since 1986.
Time and again, his reward has been arrest, detention, torture, humiliation and prosecution.
The latest case has become one of the most controversial. He was renditioned from Kenya to Uganda, while Uganda’s own Supreme Court ruled that trying civilians before military courts was unconstitutional.
Yet despite those developments, Besigye has remained behind bars as prosecutors crafted and pursued new charges through the civilian courts and now he has collapsed in court and nearing death in accordance to Despot Museveniโs wishes.
Justice delayed is Justice denied. Behold, justice can not be measured by how quickly the state can file charges but by whether the accused receives a fair hearing, adequate medical care, access to lawyers of their choice, leading to a fair trial guided by the presumption of innocence.
Those principles appear increasingly difficult to recognize in Uganda ๐บ๐ฌ generally and in particularly, in Besigye’s case.
The images of an elderly citizen, a seasoned politician, a senior medical and military figure, a presidential candidate and opposition leader looking physically weakened inside a courtroom and suddenly collapsing should trouble every Ugandan, regardless of political affiliation.
Courts should be places where justice is seen to be delivered, not a place where the condition of a prisoner becomes a story of misery and sorrow.
History will judge not only how long a leader ruled, but how he mistreated those who dared to challenge him.
Enough is Enough with Musevenism, our country, Uganda ๐บ๐ฌ deserves better leadership!
