The former Premier revealed the secrets today during the launch of 43rd Tarehe Sita Anniversary that was held at UPDF Headquarters in Mbuya a Kampala Suburb.
"After UPM that was led by Yoweri Kaguta Museveni lost the 1980 elections, we planned to go to the Bush. "We were not satisfied with election results and we never petitioned any where," Says Hon Kintu Musoke. He added that President Museveni called them for the meeting after they lost the elections. "I remember it was around 3:00pm we met in my house in Lungujja. We held a meeting which lasted for over six hours," he says. He added that in the morning he asked us that "we have agreed to do everything but what about if this fool Obote tries to arrest us," Hon Kintu Musoke says that President Museveni says " I will not be allowed to be arrested but I will fight him instead,". He adds that they left his home and moved away. He says three weeks later they were in Kabamba. "When they left, me, Late Kirunda Kivejjinja and Bidandi sali remained in Kampala as City guerrillas. " We kept monitoring the situation while President Museveni and the group kept fighting the bad regime. "I was arrested and taken to Mbuya and I witnessed the hacking of people to death while in prison," he revealed. He says they believed that Nature provides for every Man's needs but not greed. He says after the war in 1986, him, Kirunda and Bindani Ssali were employed in different Ministries until they retired from public service.
The Chief of Defence Forces Gen Wilson Mbusa Mbadi while giving his remarks said that UPDF has brought in democracy to every Ugandan. "We brought in Democracy to the extent that every body can dream of leading this Country," he said. He however warned that no body again should dream of distabalising the democracy of Uganda. He says UPDF has unmatched record of performance guided by clear vision and leadership of securing the future. CDF added that security of the people, property and Boarders has been fully restored and UPDF continues to plan for more operations other than war to ensure not just physical security but total human security. "UPDF has continued to extend peace to other countries like Sudan, Congo, Somalia among others because if we have neighbours who have no peace, we are also not safe," he says adding UPDF extends wars to them before they extend it to us.
