THE MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF COL GAD WILSON TOKO. Toko was a former minister and vice president of Uganda who was murdered in a fake accident on January 18 2002 around Bulumagi 7km from Jinja on the Kampala highway. It should be noted that on one occasion during the Nairobi peace talks in 1985, Toko had walked across the tables and slapped Mr Museveni, shouting angrily why Museveni a Rwandese was determined to fight "your wars in Our country " Museveni never forgave Toko for the public slap. Toko left behind a widow Restie Karugonjo and and five children, he was a born of Paranga village in the present day Maracha district.RIP COL TOKO

THE TRUTH ABOUT THE ORIGIN OF MR YOWERI MUSEVENI : According to research, Mr.Museveni was born #Yoseri #Tubuhaburwa #Kayibanda in the late 1930s at #Gabiro in the republic of Rwanda. Around 1946,young museveni aged 8 along with his mother Esteri kwokundeka left Rwanda as refugees acompanied by Amos Kaguta (Museveni's paternal uncle )/brother to #Kayibanda (musevenis biological father ) leaving Kayibanda behind, Esteri, her son (Museveni ), and Kaguta arrived in Ugand...a the same year and settled in the present day Kiruhura district. From Rwanda, Kayibanda (Musevenis real father ) later moved to Tanzania where he parmanently settled alone and later died around 1999. Back in Uganda, Amos kaguta later married his brother's wife(Esteri kwokundeka)and had children together. It's also very true that General Celeb Akandwanaho (Salim Saleh ) is Museveni's half brother. This was very evident in 1999 after the death of Musevenis father (Kayibanda ) when General Saleh announced on radio Uganda the death of his uncle not father (Kayibanda ).

You people are busy playing politics with the lives of close to 40million people that Uganda is made up of.The heavens will apportion each of you wicked people with worse than youre doing to ugandans. I know all this because God who created all things is a God of justice. You cannot play with the lives of people and don't pay for it. It's time to desist. More Ugandans are awake now and thereis no more going back or getting fooled. The overwhelming Ugandans are sick and tire...d of gross mismanagent of resources and dysfunctional parastatals and lack of infrastructure and they are on the streets protesting for a change in direction, something that has never been done and you bad leaders are busy playing party politics with purposeful contempt towards the people agitating for better lives. What do you all think you're doing?. You're not listening to the people that put you in your position to serve them, you're instead shutting them up and serving yourselves. It's like all the cry from voices of reason fall on deaf ears as you're all bent on driving Uganda forward to clash. Uganda is bankrupt but You keep on borrowing to pay yourselves. You as leaders should be able to work without salaries until things get better, because you've taken enough already as it is. The power and resources you're accumulating to your selves will mean nothing once you're dead, but how you serve and treat the people is what will mean something after you've died. Do you understand? Today large numbers of ugandans live next to you in abject poverty while you drive by, look at them and pretend that they don't need an upgraded life fro. m the slums they dwell in. Change your current behaviors please

In the photo is the late Emmanuel Kiwanuka #Cardinal Nsubuga .This man of God bambi died of cancer on April 20.1991 in Cologne-Germany. The cardinal's body was flown back home and arrived at Entebbe international airport on Friday April 26.1991 at 6:45am. I remember thousands thronging Entebbe to witness the return of the fallen hero.His body was laid to rest on Monday April 29.1991 at Bakateyamba Home of the elderly and disabled in Nalukolongo near Nateete even though Church tradition dictates that bishops are buried inside their cathedrals. It's very surprising that cardinal Nsubuga humbled himself by making a Will to be buried at the Bakateyamba Home which He himself found.. RIP Emmanuel Kiwanuka Cardinal Nsubuga.

A picture of the heir of the #Lutamaguzi family-Jimy Semanda, and (inset) although not very clear bambi is the late Edidian Babumba Mukiibi Lutamaguzi. Lutamaguzi was reportedly killed by the Uganda National Liberation Army (UNLA) in Luwero in 1982. He was murdered at around 4am at Kikandwa for concealing Mr.Yoweri Museveni. Lutamaguzi was killed together with other eight men. Unfortunately and most regrettably the Museveni government has totally done nothing to help Lutamaguzi's family. Lutamaguzi fathered 22 children but each child has struggled on his or her own. RIP Lutamaguzi.
