Why NRM Party, in Particularly President Museveni and Central Executive Committee Members Should Not Condemn MP Aspirants Who Lost in Party Primary Elections and Decide to Contest on Independent Ticket.
In 1980, Yoweri Kaguta Museveni while contesting on UPM party ticket in the race for Member of Parliament Mbarara North Constituency, Museveni lost to his the then Opponent Sam Kutesa who was contesting on DP party ticket.
Museveni lamented that, the Election was "Not Free and Fair".
He went ahead to elaborate that, some people (supporters of Sam Kutesa) voted more than two times.
He decided to file a Petition in the High Court, seeking to challenge and quash the election victory of Sam Kutesa.
Hight Court ruled against him (Yoweri Museveni), and the rest remained as a History.
Again on 1985, Yoweri Kaguta Museveni contested for Presidency and lost it to Dr Apollo Milton Obote.
He rejected the results, citing President Obote massively rigged the Elections.
This time (1985), Museveni did not file any Election Petition anywhere, Neither in High Court nor any other higher levels of Court in Uganda, instead, he took Guns together with his Comrades, and they waged a War against the sitting Government of President Apollo Milton Obote and ousted him on 26-January-1986.
After they overthrew President Obote, Mr Museveni released a statement saying that, "they decided to wage war against President Obote's Government, reason been we knew the Courts would not serve Justice because Obote had blocked all the ways of Peaceful Change".
Theought out these elective positions Mr Yoweri Kaguta Museveni contested in, he felt, he was always served with injustice, henceforth leaving him with “Option B” to reclaim his stolen victories.
Why am i writing these highlight phrases.
It should be a reminder to you and everybody, that, not even a mad person will allow injustice to be meted to him and he remains silent and dormant.
Dare try maltreating a mad person, and you will see how the Mad Person reacts.
