THEY SAID IT...

People talk of Sandhurst. It is just an elementary school. They have been writing in newspapers that Muhoozi went to Sandhurst to come and succeed the father. Muhoozi has different ambitions, not even to lead a single battalion, let alone the country - Museveni on reports that he is grooming his son to succeed him. ** Awori thinks being a president is simple but let them try. None of them will complete a five-year term. Even being a district chairman is a headache - Gulu LC5 Chairman, Lt. Col. Walter Ochola on presidential candidates. ** "We shall not accept anybody who says that UPDF is for Museveni. I have never been in Museveni's army and I have never been his son either as he always says - Col. Dr. Kizza Besigye responding to intimidation that if he talks about UPDF he will go six feet in the ground. ** The Catholic Church has no official position on any candidate. The guidelines are for Ugandans to see which candidate answers the needs of the common people - Cardinal Emmanuel Wamala on the stand of the Catholic Church in the elections. * * Can you imagine Besigye and Winfred saying that they are fighting corruption yet they are bargaining with a fraudster like Sebaggala who made a lot of mistakes and Ssemogerere who does not appreciate reconciliation. Reject their alliances. We shall not ally with such characters - Museveni on alliances while addressing youths. Compiled by Richard Mutumba. Ends.
