NRM WRANGLES WORRY MUSEVENI

President Yoweri Museveni is concerned about the infighting and clique formation in the National Resistance Movement (NRM) party, which he regards as internal sabotage.

The president likened the infighting in the party to a football team, where a teammate handles the ball and a colleague reports him to the referee.
"The referee has not seen, the linesman has not seen, but rather than keeping quiet, you immediately alert the referee about the mistake. This is what we are doing," he said.

My tuppence worth: i couldn't sum up this regime any better if i tried. Like the WORD puts it, 'out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.'

MPs announce move to restore term limits

More than 20 MPs yesterday morning turned up at a press briefing where they declared support for a plan to re-introduce term limits in the Constitution amidst growing calls for President Museveni not to run again in 2016.

Mr Karuhanga told journalists at the briefing at Parliament: “This year we celebrate 50 years of independence yet we are unsure of how to have another president when election time comes. We are tired of destruction every time we are changing leaders.”

Dishonesty accusation “After testing power for 25 years he should be the one to tell people ‘I am done, I no longer want to be in this prison’ but not saying that it is the party to decide, he has the experience,” bishop Niringiye said.

Ms Matembe said, “I was following an imposter whose style of leadership was to exploit people’s differences creating small districts based on ethnicities so that people were more conscious of their differences disguised as taking services nearer to them.” 

My tuppence worth: Very welcome move but i can't help but put a spin to it. My gut tells me that M7 is now gonna stand for up to 10yrs max in accordance with the new limit law. I could be wrong, but experience is seldom wrong....watch this space
