The King (Kabaka) of Buganda kingdom, Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II has sent a message of condolence to the government of Uganda, National Resistance Movement organisation (NRM) and the family of Eriya Kategaya following his death at Nairobi Hospital on Sunday.

Kategaya, 70, was Uganda’s first Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for East African Affairs. In his message, the Kabaka said the death of Kategaya, who he describes as his man, was not only a big loss to his family but also a tragedy to Buganda kingdom and Uganda as a whole.

In a condolence message, the Kabaka said that late Kategaya was not confrontational in his approaches and that he (Kategaya) had left a huge vacuum within NRM, Uganda government, his family, Buganda kingdom, Uganda as a country and East Africa and Africa as a whole.

Kabaka Mutebi says that Late Kategaya was a humble man of outstanding ability and he would be remembered for his active role in supporting the development of Uganda.

We have been told by sources in the National Resistance Movement (NRM) that the burial of president Museveni’s father, Amos Kaguta will cost the family and Ugandan taxpayers at large 34 billion shillings.

The sources told us that the 34 billion shillings would be spent on accommodating and feeding mourners who will include international diplomats. The source further alleges that the money will come from the presidential budget and from the coffers of the ruling party.

Kaguta passed away on Friday morning at the International Hospital in Kampala. President Museveni in a message to all Ugandans has described his late date as “a father, grandfather, great grandfather, nationalist, freedom fighter and father of the nation.”

The FDC president General, Col. Kiiza Besigye has said that president Museveni and his political allies are slowly getting the message that Ugandans are tired of their regime.

Besigye says that President Museveni is now increasingly getting surprised that his supporters are becoming more bold or bolder to show to him that they are tired of his leadership by voting opposition candidates against the government candidates in the ongoing parliamentary by elections.

The FDC president says that soon some key people in Government will ask Museveni that …this is his last term in office as president of Uganda.

Besigye says that here all things will start tumbling like a pack of cards with another election loss, one after the other. The opposition leader says that Museveni has started panicking. This is the reason why he is using police, electoral commission and the army to rig votes and to intimidate voters. The president of FDC says that people have started looking at police as a ”yellow police”.

He says that Ugandans are now determined to defend their rights and fear of president Museveni’s oppression is lost.

Besigye says that Uganda will soon have the first black African uprising. The inspector general of police, Kale Kayihura will order Grace Turyagumanawe to fire in the crowds and Turyagumanawe will not dare, will stay put and people will keep on coming.

”When? Soon …where? Everywhere! by who? by all the voiceless people in all corners of Uganda, and the yellow police and the CMI’s will be overstretched. Really, yes, it’s possible,” Besigye told the people of Kasese Municipality on Wednesday.

As hundreds of Ugandans in different parts of the country spent the whole of today evening cursing heavy rainfall, some people found an opportunity in it because it gathered congregations for him.

Like this born again pastor we met at City Centre Complex in Kampala who saw a crowd standing on the verandah and he stood in the rain and started preaching the word of GOD.

The pastor assured the people standing on the verandah that even if they have always dodged going to Church, today they have no way of escaping because God has gathered them at the verandah. The pastor exhibited how Ugandans can take advantage of mess and turn it into a living message.
