    National Resistance Movement

    Office of the National Chairperson

      Plot 10 Kyadondo Road Box 7778 Kampala Tel: 346295 – 346279

     The NRM has always been a revolutionary

    organization, aiming at four principles: patriotism

    (non-sectarianism and no gender chauvinism), Pan-

     Africanism, social-economic transformation and

    democracy.

     We started by conducting, successfully, two wars of

    resistance (1971-79 and 1981-86). We won those

     wars because we had a correct ideology, strategy and

    a just cause. Since 1986 we have successfully

    defended the revolution against a whole spectrum of

    counter-revolutionaries and terrorists, manysponsored by external forces. We, therefore, as in

    the resistance wars, used bullets to successfully

    defend the Revolution. Since we were in the open

    society by this time, we had also, through

    democracy, to defend the Revolution using ballots.

    In the election for the CA (1993), the GeneralElections of 1996, 2001, 2006 and 2011, the people,

     working with the NRM, successfully defended the

    Revolution. Even in the present exercise, again, the

    people of Uganda, so many petty contradictions

    1

    notwithstanding, have stood with the NRM to defend

    the Revolution. We have won a resounding victory of

    about 65% in the Presidential elections and 282

    NRM MPs elected. We have delivered a knock-out inspite of the evil-minded falsehoods and demagoguery

    of the opposition. I say 65% because many of the

    455,175 invalid votes were NRM votes. How did I

    know this? I knew this because at Mafudu, the Late

     Wapa’s place, my young brother Mbabazi beat me by

    5 votes. Yet 45 invalid votes were all mine. How were they invalid? It was because my supporters

    ticked on the symbol (the bus) or even on the

    candidate. The intention of the voter would be clear.

     This was due to not sensitizing our agents and even

    the election officials. This ended up taking away

    about 5% of our votes. This, however, is not a new

    phenomenon. Even in the past elections, we got

    these types of losses for NRM, probably not on the

    same magnitude. Without this organizational

     weakness, our vote should be around 65% for the

    President in this week’s vote. Even then, that

    should not have been the vote we should have gotgiven the work NRM has done, especially in the area

    of infrastructure (roads, electricity, schools, health

    centres, piped water, etc.) and also in the area of

    2

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    3/28

    peace and security. We should have got 80% in my

    opinion. However, that potential high score was

    undermined by some mistakes of some of our

    leaders. One long standing mistake has been poorsupervision of government services e.g. health care

    and the stealing of drugs from health centres.

     Wherever I went during the campaigns, the youthful

    population of our children and grand-children was

    complaining about this – stealing of drugs by health

     workers, absenteeism by the same workers,negligence and even asking for bribes. In Kassanda

    Health Centre, these accusations were confirmed

     when I sent, subsequently, an investigation team.

     We were about to arrest the health workers but the

    public forgave them. This is all due to poor

    supervision by both the technical staff (PS, CAO,

    Gombolola Chief, Town Clerk, etc.) and also by the

    political class. Why should it be difficult to check on

    the drugs even by the political class in the area?

     The argument that health workers are poorly paid is

    nonsensical because the workers in private hospitals

    are paid less than in government hospitals. Yet they

     work efficiently. This irritates the public alot in spiteof their support for the NRM. Dr. Diana Atwiine’s

    Unit has arrested 227 health workers. The problem,

    however, is the leniency of the Courts. They release

    3

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    4/28

    these people. I have talked to the Chief Justice

    about this.

     The other contradiction within the NRM was onaccount of the Primaries. There was alot of alleged

    rigging by some of the actors. To compound this

    problem, our Electoral Commission did not get time

    to exhaustively investigate and rectify these

    allegations. Sometimes, it would involve the misuse

    of the security forces or bias by the RDCs. I,personally, investigated two situations and provided

    some remedy which stabilized the political situation

    in the two areas. One situation was Kanungu

    (especially Kinkizi West) and the other situation was

    in Bukono Constituency of Namutumba. In

    Kanungu, it was clear that the Primaries’ results of

    the MP candidate for Kinkizi West and the LCV

    Chairperson had been altered in favour of other

    people because the winners were thought to be “pro-

    Mbabazi”. This was very wrong. How were they

    “pro-Mbabazi”? The allegation was that during the

    day, they are pro-NRM but during the night they are

    pro-Mbabazi. Even if that was the case, this was notthe correct way to handle it. The correct way would

    have been to patiently investigate these allegations

    and, if confirmed, discipline those leaders, including

    4

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    5/28

    expelling them from the Party – transparently and

    openly. Any other approach is wrong and clique-

    formation. I caused Tanga- Odoi and some other

    people to investigate and establish the truth. Josephine Kasya and Kaberuka had won the

    primaries and were, therefore, the flag-bearers. The

    good vote we got from Kanungu has confirmed the

    correctness of this truthful approach.

    My first rally in the Busoga area was at KibbalePrimary School, Kibbale sub-county, Bukono

    Constituency. As I was departing from the rally, the

    flag-bearer, Micheal Saire, told me that “a woman”

     who had stood in the primaries had caused a section

    of the constituency to boycott the rally that had just

    ended. I did not pay much heed because the rally

     was, in any case, massive as most of our rallies

     were. It was only some days later that somebody

    else told me that “the woman” that had caused a

    section of the constituency to boycott my rally was

    my own daughter, Namuganza, that had been one of

    my most loyal youth cadres for a long time. On

    account of that, I had appointed her Deputy RDC,Luwero. I, however, did not even know that she had

    resigned the Deputy RDC-ship. When I addressed

    my very first campaign rally at Zirobwe, I had

    5

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    6/28

    searched for her in the crowd by looking around

    (Kurondesa amaisho) without seeing her. I thought

    that she may be sick or something and did not think

    much about it. Only now to hear that she was “the woman” that had ‘Kujemesa’ people (make people

     boycott) from attending my rally at Kibbale Primary

    School. I, immediately, looked for her and she came

    to see me in Jinja only to tell me of stories of bias by

    the concerned officials and even Police arrests of her

    supporters, etc. To complicate matters for the Kaliro – Namutumba area, there was also the issue of the

    Kyabazinga where some of our leaders in the area

    had taken sides in that non-political issue. The area

    had become very hostile politically to the NRM on

    account of the mistakes of our actors. The rally I

    addressed at Kaliro on the 24thof December, 2015,

     was the worst of the whole campaign. Probably, only

    5,000 people attended – almost similar to the one of

    the IK people in Kaabong where there were only

    2,051 voters. I sat with Namuganza and we talked.

    Eventually, she brought me all the youth that had

     been alienated (their leaders) and the royal councils

    of Busiki and Bukono to whom I explained that theNRM never involved itself in the issue of whether

    there should be traditional leaders in any area and,

    if so, who? These were none of our business and

    6

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    7/28

    have never been. It was for the wanainchi of the

    concerned areas. They only needed to follow the law.

     These groups, whom I met while in Masindi, were

    satisfied and went back to clarify the situation. Ourrecent scores in Namutumba and Kaliro of 81.86%

    and 70.14% respectively, were a direct result of this.

    Namuganza had been told by some persons in the

    NRM that if her group wanted to go away, they can

    go away. The NRM will continue, without them!!

     Why should any NRM person alienate anybody because of the selfishness of the individuals? This is

    not acceptable.

     The other mistake is the selfishness and dishonesty

    of some of the NRM leaders. When money is sent to

    do political work, these leaders steal it. The moneythat was sent to help the Village Committees to buy

    stationery was stolen by some leaders. The masses

    come to know about it and they, really, get annoyed.

     Those who stole that money must refund it or be

    arrested. It is not only the dishonesty; but there is

    the attitude of only undertaking missions for money.

    No money, no mission. This mercenary attitude isun-NRM and not acceptable.

    7

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    8/28

    No sooner had I pacified the Namuganza group than

    the youth that had remained loyal to the NRM

    started complaining as to why I had met the “bad”

    group, etc., etc. I had also to meet this group andtalk to them about winning back anybody that may

     be disgruntled or even the ones who had never

    supported us before.

     That is the correct politics: “unite the many, to defeat

    the few and isolate the enemy to the maximum”, Mao Tse Tung used to say. Yet here in Uganda, some

    groups seem to say: “alienate as many as possible

    and remain with a few”. I reject that mistaken view.

    I am for the Maoist principle of uniting the many.

    It is some of the leaders that demand money. The

     wanainchi walk to and from the rallies on foot. They

    demand nothing; they stand in the sun while the

    leaders are in hired tents. Of course, we could not

    manage tents for everybody. What is interesting,

    however, is that the masses are hungry for the word

    of the NRM while some of the leaders are hungry for

    money. To show that the masses are hungry for the word of the NRM, even the rallies that were held on

    Sundays, were massively attended. The thirst by the

    leaders for money through politics needs to be

    8

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    9/28

    rejected totally. In a few cases, we need money if the

    distance is far; no more than that. Politics is about

    mission, not money. It is voluntary association of

    people who share the same mission. It is notemployer-employee relationship. We must be sisters,

     brothers or comrades-in-the struggle for the mission

    of patriotism, Pan-Africanism, social-economic

    transformation and democracy. This, indeed, was

    the spirit during the bush war and soon after. Our

    people would work voluntarily because they couldsee that we were working voluntarily – we, the

    leaders. This spirit was undermined by the ego-

    centric MPs that were misusing their presence in

    Parliament and the vague Constitution of 1995 on

    the issue of remuneration for Public Servants to

    award themselves huge salaries. This selfishness

    and short- sightedness transformed the MP job from

     being a mission – oriented job to being a rewarding

     job for the individuals involved. This caused the

    others, the generality of our membership, to say that

    if politics is for personal gain, we need our own

    share. This mercenarism must be wound

     backwards, starting with the leaders.

    Nevertheless, there is need to use production to

    cater for the welfare of our long serving cadres and

    9

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    10/28

    leaders at the local level, the army veterans as well

    as the Luwero war civilian veterans. The Secretary

    General should take the lead in this as should have

     been the case in the past. The districts are now,mainly, small: Lwengo, Kalangala, Buvuma,

    Kyankwanzi, Kiboga, Buyende etc. The Aruas, the

    Kaseses, the Mubendes etc. are few. There is an

     Administrative Secretary, fulltime party worker, in

    each district. Why does not this Administrative

    Secretary have the record of these long timemobilisers, party workers and local leaders

    (especially the past ones) so that wealth creation

    programmes are organized for them and, if

    necessary, they are guided in those programmes.

     With the lists, the Administrative Secretaries should

     work with the Secretary-General who should, in

    turn, work with the Wealth Creation department to

    engage all these leaders and party workers in

    gainful production. The disgruntlement of many of

    these party workers also ate into our support. This

    should not be the case.

     Then, there is the problem of selfish leaders whoundermine fellow Movement leaders from their

    common areas so as to remain “the only bulls in the

    kraal” so that they have better chances of becoming

    10

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    11/28

    Ministers. This is not a good sign in leaders. You

    should not think about your own promotion but

    about the mission and all those who support that

    mission you regard as your comrade – in- arms. If you come from the same constituency, you should

    have peaceful competition championing the same

    mission. You tell the voters that you share the same

    mission but they can choose whoever they think can

     better execute the mission. This should be in the

    primaries. Whoever is chosen in the totally freeprimaries, should get all your support. You should

     be totally neutral among all the other contenders in

    the primaries in your area and only support the

    flag-bearers chosen transparently.

     Then, there is the practice of some individuals trying

    to be King-makers in their zones. They divide our

    Movement people by taking sides among individuals

    and trying to force candidates on the electorate.

     This is very wrong. It is the NRM members who are

    electing their flag-bearers – not you. Neither in

    public nor in private should you ever express a

    preference. As long as they publically declare loyaltyto the Movement, you welcome all of them. That is

    the cut-off point for you – loyalty to the Party,

    11

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    12/28

    publically declared. No other consideration should

    enter your assessment of our members.

     The issues of “efficiency”, “morality”,“presentability”, “reliability”, should be none of your

    concerns as a senior leader in the area or a co-

    leader. Those aspects are for the public to determine

     – not you, not me. Our only yard-stick for the NRM

    members should be loyalty publically declared. The

    rest should be for the NRM membership. Once themembership have made their choice, you should,

    unreservedly, support that choice.

     Above, we have dealt with governance, organizational

    and ideological issues. There are, however, social-

    economic issues that also affect the politics. There

    are, in particular, two issues that the opposition,

    opportunistically, exploits. These are the issues of

    poverty and jobs for the youth. The NRM has for

    long had answers to these two problems. The

    problem was that in the past, we did not yet have the

     basics, the foundation, to tackle decisively these two

    problems. We did not have the infrastructure (theroads, the electricity etc.) that was a necessary pre-

    condition for more private investments, that would,

    in turn, widen the tax base that would generate

    12

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    13/28

    more revenue for the Government to tackle some of

    those problems. Here below, again, is our tax

    collection ever since 1986:

    3!   2014/15 9,713.81

    By our correct policies, our tax collection now stands

    at Shs.13,000bn which is about US$4bn. This is a

    decent level of resource mobilization. It is not like inthe past when we had to depend on the donors for

    the whole of the development budget. With the

    increasingly more decent level of revenue collection,

    in 2006, I insisted on prioritizing electricity, the

    roads, education, health and defence. It is this

    decision that has won the recent General Elections. Although the opposition, supported by the Aga

    Khan’s Monitor newspaper and NTV television,

     would do everything to paint a bleak and

    deteriorating situation in Uganda, the population,

     with our explanations, would, instead, see hope and

    progress.

    If the tarmac road has reached Oraba, Moroto,

    Bundibugyo, Kisoro and the electricity has reached

    all the 112 districts of Uganda except four (Kaabong,

    14

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    15/28

    Nwoya, Kotido and Buvuma), things people never

    dreamed of, surely other problems will also be

    addressed. That was, indeed, my message. The

    eight words: unity, strength, peace, development, wealth, skills, jobs and political stability. Had the

    political class been more focused on the issue of the

     wealth funds, our task of winning by 80%, instead of

    the present 65%, would have been very easy. In the

    new budget, we must, therefore, ensure the

    Shs.1000bn for NAADS (wealth creation),Shs.234bn for the Youth Fund, Shs.234bn for the

     Women Fund, Shs.180bn for Micro-Finance and

    Shs.500bn for the Innovation Fund. This is, in

    addition, to the present level of funding for the roads

    Shs.3,400bn, Shs.2,900bn for electricity, etc.

     We were able to give a knock-out on the first round

    to the opposition, as we always do, because of,

    mainly, four factors: promoting unity among the

    people; peace; electricity; and the new tarmac roads

    in areas that had never seen much development.

     These gave hope to the people that even what is not

    done will be done. Hence, the 65% support for thePresident and 70% support for the NRM MPs and

    NRM leaning independents. The huge masses of our

    children, our grand-children with our great- grand

    15

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    16/28

    children in tow that I addressed in 305 rallies and

    290 constituencies, plus a few elders in attendance,

     were, on the one hand, happy with these factors:

    unity, peace, tarmac roads and electricity. On theother hand, however, there were problems of the

    corruption of Government accounting officers, poor

    supervision of schools and health centres, badly

    managed primaries, greedy politicians trying to be

     warlords and hijack the authority of the people to

    elect leaders of their choice, the moneylessness inmany families, the lack of jobs for the university

    graduates that did Social Sciences and the poor

    communication by the NRM Secretariat, the RDCs,

    the Ministry of Information, etc. In some areas,

    there was the question of cattle compensation for

    cows lost in the wars, veterans pensions and the

    chasing of hawkers from selling at the road sides

     without an alternative. It is these weak points that

    reduced NRM’s support from 80% to 65% - 70%.

     The opportunistic and unserious opposition could

    not realize that their demagoguery would be seen

    through by the wanainchi. The NRM won in thefollowing zones: Karamoja – 91.4%; Bunyoro-76.4%;

     Ankole – 74.8%; Sebei – 72.8%; Toro/Rwenzori –

    69.7%; Busoga - 64.9%; Kigezi - 64.6%; West Nile –

    16

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    17/28

    63.5%; Bugisu – 55%; Bukedi – 53.2%; Buganda –

    52%; Teso – 52% and Lango– 50.7%. It only lost in

     Acholi – 41% against FDC’s 42%. By solving the

    residual problems, the opposition will be deposited where it belongs – the dust-bin of opportunism. The

    masses could see the irreversible steps achieved.

     Why could not the elite of the opposition do the

    same?

    In this article, I talk of moneylessness, rather thanpoverty. This is because the poverty statistics are

    not easily understood by the public. Drawing the

    poverty line is done scientifically, especially

     biologically. They ask the question: What is the

    necessary calories intake per person per day? They

    then, add education, health access etc. and monetize

    those elements. Obviously, food in Uganda is not

    such an absolute unavailability. Yes, there is

    stunted growth not because there is no food but

     because people do not know what to eat because of

    the lethargic Ministry of Health. Otherwise, the food

    is there or can be there. That is absolute poverty,

    scientifically defined, as at 56.4% in 1993 in the whole country and at 19.7% today. The problem,

    therefore, is moneylessness. That is what people call

    17

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    18/28

    obwavu, obwooro, can- not lack of food – nutritious

    or otherwise.

    Social – political – economic poverty means lack ofmoney. The poverty line of the IMF and the Ministry

    of Finance is a biological categorization. The NRM

    has established a strong base. The people saw that

     base, recognized its importance and supported the

    NRM, not just in the Presidential vote but with a

     whooping number of 282 NRM MPs and scores ofNRM leaning Independents.

     There is also the question of land grabbing by some

    thieves and blind landlords that collude with some

    authorities to evict bibanja owners. This problem

    has two sides that must be handled correctly. First

    of all, nobody should get land illegally. The five legal

     ways of getting land are: being allocated a kibanja

     by the mailo-owner or his agent(omusigire); buying a

    kibanja from the one who got it from the first

    method; the bona-fide occupants that were on that

    land by 1983 or before; being the first to settle on

    the public land (kutembuura) or buying from the one who did that; and having a leasehold or milo title.

     The leasehold could only be acquired on uninhabited

    land. A lease hold should not be acquired on a piece

    18

  • 8/20/2019 Open letter on just concluded general elections

    19/28

    of land that is occupied; unless the occupants are

    few and, on a willing buyer-willing seller basis, are

    ready to accept compensation. If you do not fall in

    these categories do not tell lies. We can look forother ways of helping you legally – e.g. a soft loan to

     buy a few acres, etc. Myopic and opportunistic

    politicians must be warned about encouraging

    people to invade any land illegally. During the

    campaign, for instance, I had two pieces of land that

    had been occupied by people. One was the NationalHousing Corporation land at Kasokoso. This is

    easier to deal with. NHC got this land in September,

    1966 but did not develop it on account of the chaos

    in the country. Meanwhile, the wanainchi came and

    settled there, built permanent houses etc. Nobody

     was there to restrain them. NHC is a public

    corporation. The Government could assist to

    compensate them so that they get other land to go

    on with their projects. There is, however, the

    question of the railway land that people settled on.

     We have much less room for manoeuver here. The

    country must have the railway. Nobody who claims

    to be Ugandan should, either in public or privately,think that Uganda should not have a modern railway

     because people illegally encroached on the railway

    land and they “are our voters”. “Our voters” or those

    19

    20/28

     who “vote for the opposition” must be the first to

    realize that Uganda needs a modern railway.

     Anybody who does not see this, is an enemy of

    Uganda’s future. If there is no other route for therailway, then the encroachers must leave. Some

    assistance can be given to them if feasible. These

    people should, however, have been talked to and

    even the timing should have been agreed to and

    discussed with them.

     As far as the Forest Reserves are concerned, they fall

    into two categories: the ecologically sensitive that

    may be protecting rivers or part of the high rain

    forest or the ones that were just gazetted for

    producing fire-wood and timber. The latter are

    easier to deal with – a compromise should be found

     with the bona-fide encroachers. However, the

    ecologically sensitive forests must be protected.

    Nevertheless, no politician should encourage or

    cover up illegal land-grabbing because endangering

    security of legal owner-ship of property is a great

    disservice to Uganda. It will discredit Ugandainternally and internationally. Our present success

    and strength is, precisely, due to a good business

    reputation. When we returned the 4000 properties

     Anybody who endangers this potential is an enemy,

    knowingly or unknowingly.

     The NRM Secretariat must be very active insensitizing our masses.

     We have the capacity to resolve the residual

    problems, one by one. That is why the opposition in

    Uganda is an endangered species.
