Marafiki, Habari! I have been away for so long but out of sight is not out of mind. The last time we were debating East African Federation and I warned of the dangers of a miltarized Uganda, the difference in our political history. Events now speak louder than I could ever speak. Uganda...

Ab-Titchaz and Lole thanks for the warm welcome and I hope that we can engage in constructive discussions for a strong East African Community one that is welcomed and understood by the people and not imposed by the leaders. Asante sana.

MwanaFalsafa1, There are even more reasons for Tanzanians to be pensive and more caution on this political union which gives a huge land mass, but disproportionately less votes if we were to vote on nationalistic lines (which we would!). Look closely at the federation drafts and ask questions...

Hi, I introduced myself already as a Ugandan opposition activist in the Introduction Forum. I could not resist jumping in here. Forgive me if my arguments are very simplistic, am not a subject matter expert, just a hyper political observer/commentator focusing on Uganda. One thing apparent...

Dilunga, iyo mambo ya kukimbia nchi yangu is number one criticism (laana?) la kazi yangu. Lakini hiyo si kweli kabisa. The sad truth is that I am able to work effectively precisely because am not home. Now don't get me wrong there are some really brave opposition activists that are out there...

Asante Belinda, na furahi sana kuwa member wa JF

Thanks Bluray, I have learnt to struggle without bitterness and I have made many friends along the way. You all are my newest friends. Who can complain?

Lagatege, Kina onekana you are asking about my role: Mimi ni wakiri by training but my role in the opposition us to build relationships, learn, share and develop policy alternatives, advocacy and networking with like minded individuals and groups globally.

The Famer, mambo zangu na Movement ya Museveni ni ngumu sana, lakini nitarudi nyumbani baada ya kumaliza harakati ya ng'ambo. Inawezekana ku rudi baada ya 2011. -- Mungu ansaidia... AM

Kikojozi, it is a really long story! Most of it you can Google using my name and looking at articles from 2000 and 2001 in Ugandan papers. Sitaki ku sumbua members na long story too soon. It will unfold on Google if you are interested.

Yoyo, I like your goal but where is the message?

Syllogist you asked: Biggenda Bitya? Well, Biggenda Bulungi!

Nimefurahi sana kwa welcome nilipata hapa on JF. Wana Uganda hatujui Swahili vizuri, bali tunajua upendo. Na mimi sitaki lugha ya hatred basi ninawaza I will fit in somehow. My Swahili is already improving by leaps and bounds even if it is terrible to you... Thanks again. Nataka kuelewa na...

Bwana Dilunga (Am assuming you are a man - its tonal), Nimesikia kidogo kitu unasema. Sasa ninajaribu, ninasoma mpaka ni kuwa mtaalamu. Ni kuwa mwanafunzi mzuri. Asante sana. AM

Yes am Anne Mugisha alright. But both are common names in Uganda. I am an opposition activist and I got tired of using psuedonyms long ago. Needed to own up to my own remarks, observations, comments, actions and reactions. Now, who are you Son of Alaska?

Oh, Ngabu, someone sent me that good old music from Zilipendwa today because I loved dancing to that stuff back in the day in Ange Noir and other Clubs in Kampala. I was listening to the music when I realized this was a discussion forum and I decided to join... Dilunga, am going crazy trying to...

Asante sana Dilunga, Ngabu na Blu Ray. Unfortunately hakuna matooke or Kabalagala hapa Florida. Am in Plantation, Florida which is near Miami. Mimi ni mwanaharakati wa political rights and freedoms. Lakini am an absentee leader in Uganda's largest opposition political party FDC...

Am a Ugandan so my first priority is to learn Swahili (Ha!) and I really want to mix with East Africans. I am an activist (so I must be in the opposition right?) I live in Florida, USA but I forgot to pack my heart and soul. Those I left in Uganda 8 years ago. Let's talk, get to know each...
