Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Locals across the country have expressed mixed reactions to the tenure of the National Resistance Movement (NRM) party as it marks 37 years in power under the leadership of President Museveni.<\/p>\n

Mr Museveni came into power on January 26, 1986, after leading a successful five-year liberation struggle under the then National Resistance Army (NRA) to restore democratic governance, rule of law and economic transformation based on the 10-point programme.<\/p>\n

In the northern, Dr Moses Michael Odongo Okune, the Lango Paramount Chief, lauded the NRM government for bringing peace to once a war-torn region.<\/p>\n

The United Nations estimates that the Lord\u2019s Resistance Army (LRA) rebels killed more than 100,000 people, abducted 60,000 to 100,000 children and displaced more than 2.5 million civilians in four African countries from 1987 to 2012.<\/p>\n

Dr Okune said during the past regimes, there were so many conflicts and political instabilities but it is now history.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe NRM has done a lot for this country. For instance, it has brought peace and implemented a number of rebuilding programmes in northern Uganda,\u201d he said. \u201cThe government is praised for giving the elderly people a monthly stipend under the Social Assistant Grants for Empowerment (SAGE) programme, which has greatly improved their standards of living,\u2019\u2019 the paramount chief added.<\/p>\n

The Senior Citizens Grant targets older persons of 65 years and above and it has enabled the beneficiaries to access basic services, and to start income generating activities.<\/p>\n

Dr Okune further said a number of roads such as Dokolo-Lira, Apac-Lira and Lira-Kamdini are being upgraded to ease movement of people and goods across the region.<\/p>\n

Mr Bonny Achol, the former Lira Municipality Male Youth Councillor, said the youth have been supported by the NRM government through empowerment programmes.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, our current challenges are enormous and cannot be addressed by one man or few leaders,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr Luzino Odongo, the chairperson of NRM in Apac Municipality, praised the ruling party for ending the LRA war.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is the only NRM government which brought political stability to this country. In the past governments, there was an unstable government, but Mr Museveni has managed to keep a stable political leadership where leaders are elected democratically,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Dr Dan Okello, a former Makerere University lecturer, however, said the NRM government had promised that Uganda was going to attain middle-income status by 2020, but this was not achieved.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe level of poverty has increased and the government is again talking of the country attaining upper middle income by 2040,\u201d he said, adding that the government has failed to fight corruption.<\/p>\n

Mr David Ojok Zulu, the Apac Uganda Peoples Congress chairman, said his party created a good environment for farmers by coming up with several interventions, including cooperatives, which the NRM government has failed to support.<\/p>\n

\u201cFarmers cooperatives such as Lango Cooperative Union were for cotton farmers in Lango, Bugisu Cooperative Union was for coffee farmers and Ankole Cooperative Union in Ankole Sub-region. These used to help farmers to find markets for their produce,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Apac<\/b><\/p>\n

Mr Tom Oluge, a resident of Apac Municipality, said the ruling party has performed poorly on land policy.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring the Uganda Peoples Congress government, there was nothing like land grabbing and killing of people over land disputes, but now it\u2019s very common because of bad policies on land,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

In Nakaseke District, a section of the residents said the renovation of the Nakaseke General Hospital that was once ravaged by the five-year guerrilla war is a big milestone.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen the NRM government took over power and ruled for years without rehabilitating Nakaseke Hospital, we felt very concerned as residents, but in 2015, we witnessed a major refurbishment of the facility. This was a big landmark for our people,\u201d the district chairperson, Mr Ignatius Kiwanuka Koomu, said.<\/p>\n

Luweero<\/b><\/p>\n

In Luweero District, the residents have also applauded the government for upgrading the Luweero Health Centre IV to a General Hospital.<\/p>\n

Mr Erusto Kibirango, the chairperson of Luweero, said there are unfulfilled pledges by the NRM government, among them the construction of the district administration block, fruit processing plant, and upgrading of the major roads that link Luweero to the neighbouring districts of Kayunga and Nakaseke.<\/p>\n

Mr Livingstone Kategaya, a Liberation war veteran leader in Bamunanika County, Luweero, said many of the veterans have died without getting their respective compensation packages.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere should be a deliberate effort to find out what happened to the compensation of veterans,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

In Tororo District, Ms Stella Imukutet Echirya, a former LC5 chairperson, said the NRM government should be credited for empowering women and other special interest groups. \u201cIt is in history that during the NRM government, women have been given a chance to lead and participate in decision-making. So to me as a woman, I say long live NRM,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

However, Mr Emmanuel Osuna, another local leader, said the NRM government has failed to strengthen monitoring and supervision of government projects to mitigate corruption.<\/p>\n

Mbale<\/b><\/p>\n

In Mbale, Mr Peter Rwandarugari, aka Ndeko Nangai, a businessman, said the government has achieved security and political stability.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur cultural values have degenerated because most of the evils in our society are as a result of loss of our cultural values,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr Ramathan Magambo, a resident of Mbale City, said the government has tried to create job opportunities through the establishment of factories in Mbale Industrial Park. \u201cThe government has also tarmacked roads such as Mbale\u2013Lwakhakha road to ease transportation of agricultural produce,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Ms Jenniffer Nandutu, an opinion leader, however, said the government has failed in terms of governance and human rights.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople\u2019s human rights are violated by law enforcers and the government top leaders seem to be in support,\u201d Ms Nandutu said.<\/p>\n

In Yumbe District, Mr Noah Acikule, the former political commissioner of the defunct UNRF II, said most of the government poverty eradication programmes have failed.<\/p>\n

\u201cGovernment has initiated a number of projects within the revolution such as PRDP, NUSAF, YLP, EMYOOGA, ReHoPE, and PDM, but the impact is not seen in the community,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

In Obongi District, the former MP for Obongi Constituency, Mr Hassan Kaps Fungaroo, said instead of celebrating, the people of WestNile should mourn. He said the Uganda National Rescue Front (UNRF) soldiers who fought were promised positions in government, including payments, which up to now have not been made.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was a plan to build a military veterans hospital in West Nile in memory of the ex-combatants, but the idea was frustrated,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

Mr Patrick Manano, a resident of Nebbi Town, said although the government introduced Universal Primary Education UPE, pupils are no longer learning due to congestion. \u201cSome rural schools are conducting classes under the trees with poor networks,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Zombo<\/b><\/p>\n

In Zombo District, Ms Aidha Acanda, a resident of Paidha Town, said there are still challenges of accessing healthcare.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur patients walk long distances to access health services and in most cases, they end up dying on their way to the hospital due to bad roads,\u201d Ms Acanda said.<\/p>\n

In Koboko District, Mr John Bakole, an elder, said the NRM leadership has been characterised by corruption, regional imbalance, declining school performance, abuse of human and constitutional rights and continued elections marred by malpractices.<\/p>\n

In Arua District, Mr Boniface Alioni, the NRM vice chairman, said the government has improved social service delivery, infrastructural development and the energy sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you see that the life expectancy of Ugandans has improved, it\u2019s not out of the blue, it\u2019s because certain things have been put right over the years,\u201d Mr Alioni said.<\/p>\n

Mukono<\/b><\/p>\n

In Mukono District, the president of Uganda Federal Alliance (UFA), Mr Charles James Kizito, said there is no need to celebrate.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you look at the Kampala-Jinja Highway, the road is too narrow. It is the major source of traffic jams to the travellers to and from the eastern part of the country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr Kizito also said the ongoing abduction of residents by security agencies cast a grim picture of the regime in power.<\/p>\n

However, Mukono Deputy Resident District Commissioner Henry Kitambula said the NRM government has worked hard to transform the different sectors of the economy, especially the education sector.<\/p>\n

Mr Peter Ssenkungu, the NRM chairperson of Masaka District, said the party should concentrate on fighting corruption, which he said has started tarnishing the image of the party.<\/p>\n

In Jinja, Mr Farouk Aligriga, a casual worker and resident of Jinja City, said the government failed to tackle unemployment. \u201cIts the new evil eating up young graduates. The government has done less to tackle it for the past 37 years,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr Paul Okello, the chairperson of NRM in Mafibura Parish, Jinja North Division, said the area has got a primary school and piped water due to good policies of the ruling government.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe elevation of Jinja to a city status is also one achievement of the NRM government and we must appreciate it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The NRM chairperson for Jinja City, Mr Daniel Musinguzi, said the government has created a conducive environment to attract more investors.<\/p>\n

The former MP for Kagoma County, Mr Frank Nabwiso, cited peace, infrastructure development and the liberalisation of media as some of the achievements of NRM.<\/p>\n

Dr Nabwiso, however, said the ruling party has allowed Uganda\u2019s economy to be controlled by foreigners.<\/p>\n

\u201cMany of the investors are operating in wetlands and contributing significantly to the destruction of the environment,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

Dr Nabwiso said the country has also failed to change the education system to produce more skilled people.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have also never heard of a conference where the President has addressed people on population control. If we don\u2019t go for smaller families, this country will just explode,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

Mbarara<\/p>\n

Mr Amos Katureebe, a resident of Mbarara City, said the country has more universities and the national budget has grown from Shs46 trillion to Shs10 billion since 1986.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe used to have few hospitals, but now health has been boosted by many health facilities despite issues to do with drug shortages,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The FDC chairperson in Mbarara District, Mr Stanley Katembeya, said the NRM party has failed to eliminate corruption.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe NRM is sucking Ugandans and making them poorer because they have imposed high taxes. What the President says is not what is implemented,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The mayor of Mbarara City South Division, Mr Jomo Mugabe, said the NRM poverty-alleviation programmes have led to increased household incomes.<\/p>\n

In Kisoro, the district chairperson, Mr Abel Bizimana, said whereas the NRM government has achieved a lot in terms of infrastructure development, peace and stability, the duplication of government projects, corruption in parastatals and other unfulfilled presidential pledges keep haunting the regime.<\/p>\n

\u201cFailure by the NRM government to exploit all the mineral deposits in the country has led to increased poverty in local communities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The general secretary of the Forum for the Democratic Change in Kabale District, Mr Richard Muhanguzi, said current achievements are a result of modernisation in the whole world.<\/p>\n

\u201cNRM has increased poverty in communities by failure to control and regulate community prices,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
