  Comrade Ayo,

  Technically Bageya is right. Museveni is being very subtle here. He is himself not openly pushing his third term manouvre. He is leaving that to other people. He is doing this for two reasons. First, he would like it to appear that the third term move is from the grassroots. That way he would escape accusations that he is hungry for power. It is as a result of this that Kategaya keeps unmasking him by stating that it is Museveni who is behind the third term move.

  While this may seem to be a minor point, it is very important for us to draw the distinction.

  Yoga Adhola.

    "I am a member of NEC [National Executive Committee] and I attended the executive and National Conference meetings, but I don't remember hearing him say that he wants a third term," the RDC said.



    This poor listener now wants to blame his blocked ears, lack of attention and poor memory on Kategaya. Simply because he doesn't remember hearing dictator Museveni talk about wanting a third term doesn't necessarily mean that Kategaya and Matembe are wrong. I bet you listen to Kategaya and Matembe talk about this matter on Monitor FM (Mwenda) then compare it to this thug and what dictator Museveni told R. White on the third term issue

    Regards,

    Bageya attacks Kategaya
    By Isaac Mufumba
    Jan 6, 2004


          JINJA - Mr Eriya Kategaya has become increasingly inconsistent since he was dropped as a deputy premier, a government official has said.

          "With all due respect to Mr Kategaya, he was always consistent when he was in government, but now that the tide has changed, his position has also began to change," Mr Patrick Bageya said in Jinja at the weekend.

          Bageya is the newly appointed Resident District Commissioner of Busia.
          On the widely held belief that President Museveni is personally pushing the third term project, Bageya said the President has never raised the issue.

          "I am a member of NEC [National Executive Committee] and I attended the executive and National Conference meetings, but I don't remember hearing him say that he wants a third term," the RDC said.

          The two Movement organs, NEC and NC, mooted the idea of removing presidential term limits from the Constitution, an idea endorsed by Cabinet.

          Bageya, who was also the Kigulu North delegate in the Constituent Assembly, defended the Cabinet's campaign to remove the term limits. 

          He said there is no law barring Cabinet from presenting such a view to the Constitutional Review Commission. 

          "We [CA] provided for the formation of a constitutional review commission, but didn't say that certain people should not present their views to such a commission," he said.

    "And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall march ahead. We cannot turn back. There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, 'When will you be satisfied?' We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities (.) No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream". (Martin Luther King, 1964 Nobel Peace prize laureate, assassinated for his struggle)
