Comde Eliba,

Apparently I am the only one who would have helped you  understand, but I fell down before you

And you ask  "Kaguta trying to say here?" - the answer is that he is proving to the whole world that he is the best African breed.
Wake up Eliba!  Is this the first time you Museveni's so many faces? - only this time he does it the CIA style - hide under another name/personality!!

Best regards ,

Nyar'Onyango

  "President Yoweri Museveni’s special envoy, Professor Mondo Kagonyera told journalists soon after meeting President Mugabe at Zimbabwe House yesterday that Zimbabwe had done nothing wrong to warrant suspension and exclusion from the Commonwealth. 

  He said he had been sent by President Museveni to deliver a message to President Mugabe soliciting the country’s support for Uganda’s bid to host the next Commonwealth meeting in 2005." 

  Comrades is any one more well versed with this situation to help me before I start falling sick. What is this hypocrite Kaguta trying to say here? I am not talking about the obvious fact that the club is undemocratic. What I want to understand is since when did Kaguta become democratic? Above all since when did he start talking about the Zims and especially  President Mugabe with such tone?

  Zim suspension from Club undemocratic: Uganda 

  Chief Reporter 
  UGANDA yesterday criticised the Commonwealth for suspending Zimbabwe, accusing the 54-member club of mostly former British colonies of being undemocratic. 

  This comes just a day after Malaysia also took a swipe at the Commonwealth for suspending Zimbabwe from its councils saying the troika comprising South 
  Africa, Nigeria and Australia should not be the only group to address the issue of Zimbabwe. 

  President Yoweri Museveni’s special envoy, Professor Mondo Kagonyera told journalists soon after meeting President Mugabe at Zimbabwe House yesterday that Zimbabwe had done nothing wrong to warrant suspension and exclusion from the Commonwealth. 

  "Zimbabwe has done nothing wrong nor faulted any of the rules of the Commonwealth. 

  "If a few countries are unhappy why should they hold every country to ransom?" said Prof Kagonyera. 

  He said Uganda was fully behind Zimbabwe’s re-admittance into the Commonwealth as there was no basis for its continued exclusion. 

  Uganda would be very disappointed if Zimbabwe was not invited to the next Commonwealth meeting to be held in December in Abuja, Nigeria. 

  Prof Kagonyera said the action taken against Zimbabwe by the Commonwealth showed that there was no democracy in the club. He expressed the hope that 
  Nigeria would invite Zimbabwe and that as the host country, it would not be swayed by the views of the minority. 

  He said he had been sent by President Museveni to deliver a message to President Mugabe soliciting the country’s support for Uganda’s bid to host the next 
  Commonwealth meeting in 2005. 

  Prof Kagonyera said he had exchanged views with President Mugabe regarding the economic situation in the two countries. 

  Uganda, he said, was looking at ways of increasing agricultural production that was on the decline. The White Commonwealth — Australia, Britain, Canada and 
  New Zealand — has led a major campaign against Zimbabwe citing alleged human rights abuses and lack of democracy. 

  Commonwealth secretary-general Mr Don McKinnon, who overrode the troika’s majority decision by extending the suspension of Zimbabwe, faces an acid test in 
  Abuja where the issue on Zimbabwe is expected to dominate the meeting. 

  Mr McKinnon was at it again yesterday, alleging that the situation in the country is deteriorating. 

  He was quoted by news agents in Brussels as saying efforts to establish dialogue with the Government had "been spurned". 

  Most African countries are against the exclusion of Zimbabwe from the Commonwealth.
