The Mao , Muhoozi party preparations: Blunder or foresight?

By ANGELO .M

KAMPALA-UGANDA/NEWSDAY: It all started with Rwanda Air almost veering off a runway and nearly injuring about 20 Rwandese special visitors to first son and commander of Uganda land forces (CLF), Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba at Entebe international airport early this week.

Then a more protracted effort towards making the Muhoozi birthday not only a success but a landmark.

Looking at how the  entourge are destined, the birthday is actually a real landmark given its national and regional packaging.

Meanwhile, the sight of Hon Nobert Mao the president general of the divided Democratic Party (DP) has left many questioning his next move.

Mao has for some time now been associated with the Yellow color of this country though he ought to be full Green.

And he could only be a pioneer as more of his party may sooner or later abandon the much orchestrated extremism in order to forge a better future if not a disastrous one.

My instinct, yours as well ponders at a misdirected political direction of sons and daughters succeeding parents.

It started with Hon Ken Lukyamuzi and her naive daughter Suzan Nampijja all through many more politicians across the land and the flag now is posted in Omoro where Mr Ojok  Oulanyah is destined to win.

Is that not enough to read the currents with the birthday ocean?

But that notwithstanding, the Raila Odinga handshake with President Uhuru Kenyatta and what it’s destined for lend lessons that sometimes a friendship with our would be foes can be a way to go.

When the new breed finally takes over in 2031 when Mr Museveni is finally aged or gone and all the old timers of the bush war heroes become history in the eyes of the youth, Uganda will certainly have to proceed.

And since historically political parties normally fade with their founders the KANU way in Kenya and CCM is too sleeperly, who knows if Mr Bobi Wine’s NUP will seek the blessings of Mao, Muhoozi and Gen Mugisha Muntu to form some sort of Uganda Orange Democratic Alliance to move the country.

Suffice it to say wars and wars carry no meaning in the modern world looking at how lives, property and investments are being destroyed in Ukraine, Russia war of choice.
