Dear President Yoweri Museveni,
I must admit. I admire your consistence, courage, and creativity. Anybody can hate or loathe you. Truth be told. You’re a master tactician who sees the future. Congrats on that. Though you’ve been in power for decades, you’ve always been ahead of time for decades. Who would think you’d easily and squarely trounce Bobi Wine without any chaos? I adore you because what transpired in my country last year has shown that you aren’t only a tactician but also a honest and a peaceful man per se.
Now, let me say something about Canada where elections aren’t life-and-death matters. I see Canadians voting with the internet on. Canadian youths aren’t like African ones who waste time browsing and thereby abscond from voting. Methinks, for those who don’t understand why internet was turned off during elections, must know. It’s because you wanted them to go to vote instead of wasting their precious time browsing.
I also congratulate Ugandans on peacefully voting for a visionary leader before and after elections. Tanzania must take a leaf from Uganda. For, during the voting period, you alluded to a rigging ploy, which indeed happened. Otherwise, you’d have won by 100%. I proudly applaud the Ugandan Electoral Commission on managing the exercise diligently. They made sure that you who poised to win won. I congratulate the UEC on distributing voting materials timely. There happened some glitches that didn’t adversely affect the quality of diligence, especially to an African country where punctuality and reality have never been important altogether.
I heard some ‘bad guys’ condemning your beloved son who warned them not to attempt to snatch your power. Don’t they know his name? What’d Muhoozi or the avenger do at such moment of truth? Congrats Gen. Muhoozi. Keep on tweeting. I honestly like your tweets.
I must warn ‘Booby.’ Since you took power a few centuries, sorry, decades ago, you’ve proved to be a very truthful man. You say it as it is. Why did Booby and his hecklers easily forget how your avow of not letting power slink out of your safe pair hands? You fought for and liberated Uganda from Idi Amin. Thus, whoever seriously wants power must fight for it. You absolutely once said that you don’t work for anybody except for yourself. Ugandans understand this far too well. Remember? You said “I am not an employee. I hear some people saying that I am their servant; I am not a servant of anybody. I am a freedom fighter; that is why I do what I do. I don’t do it because I am your servant; I am not your servant. I am just a freedom fighter; I am fighting for myself” (Daily Monitor, January 27, 2017).
In Canada, one runs for the public office to serve the people but not to serve himself or herself. What a foolish idea! You share one quality that those who run for public offices say their intentionality clearly. That said, in Canada, every public officer is an employee of the people. There’s no self-employment in Canadian politics. That’s how reckless our leaders are out here.
Another difference is that, in Canada, like Uganda, power comes by votes even though, in some circumstances, one must use the barrel of a gun. Why only through votes? Canada’s never been under stinking dictators like Amin whom you defeated. Like in Canada, Ugandans have truly proved. They know the type of ruler they need and why.
I like how you’ve been clamorous and impervious throughout your rule. Uganda needs that. You consistently on countless occasions said that you’ll never allow Amin and the likes to return and destroy your gains. Who wants this? Again, those who don’t know this wrongly ask how and why Amin should return while he’s already dead. Yep. Amin died many years ago. Again, Aminism still exists. Whoever doubts this ‘truth truly said’, must ask TZs whom I heard sing Idi Amin Mama. Who know there can evolve one in Uganda?
I recently heard Donald Trump of the US saying that he’d like Canada to be the US’ newest state after Greenland. Had Canada had a consistent person like you, this threat would have already been sorted out perpendicularly and mercilessly.
In sum, I happily and honestly congratulate you and your family on your ‘avalanche’ victory. Museveni hoyeeee!
