By Mulengera ReportersFormer Vision Group CEO Robert Kabushenga has addressed himself to the great governance questions of the day for contemporary Uganda and Africa as a whole. And his video clip has quite predictably already gone viral online, with thousands of Ugandan social media users sharing and replicating it to their respective audiences.Speaking broadly, Kabushenga said there is there are “underlying” generational “grievances,” which are pushing the young people into fearlessly expressing themselves and speaking with one voice, demanding to for political change, across the African continent. Making it clear that Uganda is clearly part of this blowing and unstoppable wind of change across the continent, because its young people are increasingly becoming impatient and are determined to turn a page, Kabushenga says it’s no longer going to be possible for those in power to keep sweeping these grievances under the carpet. He asserts that the young people want their place at the decision-making table and the time is now, not later. That no amount of coercive force or intimidation by the state is going to succeed preventing what he calls the “underlying grievances” from being expressed. He cites some African countries where the young people have been successful in overwhelming the aggressive machinery of the state and thereby forcing regime change. “The people, the voters have an underlying grievance [feeling excluded from decision-making processes] and they will express it. Their feeling is that you aren’t serving us [anymore],” he said while taking part in a series of online conversations he and other African intellectuals frequently hold. Charles Onyango Obbo is one of those always sitting down with Kabushenga and others to interrogate Africa’s major governance questions of the day under “the Bad Natives Podcast” series. Choosing his words carefully, Kabushenga at some point went after our own veteran leader from Rwakitura, Gen YK Museveni who he described as too old to render any effective leadership to the country anymore. “In a world that has the ambitions of the kind that people are doing, investing in technology and moving at a supersonic speed into the future…we are sitting here [Kampala] with guys who are essentially great grand parents, not even… I mean our own President; his grand daughter is getting married soon. So, in his next term he will be a great grand father. Is he really the right person to lead us to where we are going or to lead the people?” rhetorically wondered Kabushenga who critics say has never recovered from the trauma and resentment deriving from the very humiliating circumstances under which he was herded out of Vision Group in February 2021, weeks after the country had emerged from the 2021 general elections during which Gen Museveni was unexpectedly bruised by popstar Bobi Wine who the young people of Uganda have once again embraced. “How can a guy who can physically not campaign, can’t bring himself to ask you for your vote…? What is he going to do for you? We must ask that question. The third point for me out of that is that: why isn’t taking so long for the [vote] count to be done? In this age and time?” (For comments on this story, get back to us on 0705579994 [WhatsApp line], 0779411734 & 041 4674611 or email us at mulengeranews@gmail.com
