When Museveni ran ‘mad’ over Besigye If you are still shocked about the extent to which the “Nanjing group” went to neutralise Amama Mbabazi at Kyankwanzi, then you need to hear this. Apparently His Excellency Ssabagabe, Ssabalwanyi, War-General Yoweri Museveni does not take any threat to his hold on power for granted. While his praise singers may write off some opponents, the president will not take anyone for granted. According to former Minister Miria Matembe, Museveni literally ran mad sometime in 2000, on learning that Dr Kizza Besigye, his former physician, was bent on standing against him during the 2001 general elections. “Museveni ran mad when Besigye stood against him in 2001. He hit the roof and I asked him myself: ‘But what is the crime that Besigye has committed?’,” Matembe said on a Voice of Africa radio talk show recently. Matembe added: “Museveni does not want anything that threatens his seat, be it his shadow; he would use all he has to fight it.” Wolokoso hopes that Prof Gilbert Bukenya was listening. Surely, he would not want to make our president run mad. By Observer
