Bunge la uganda limeanza kuhoji kwanini Museveni kapeleka wana Jeshi wa Uganda UPDF Congo kwa kisingizio cha kutafuta wa asi wa ADF bila ruhsa ya Bunge. Wabunge wengi wana hofia huenda Jeshi la uganda li kapishana na la Rwanda ambao tayari liko Congo kwa miaka kadhaa, na wakapingana vita ambao nasisi Tz anaweza kutuathiri tusipo ingilia kati, wote ni marafiki na jilani lazima tuwe waangarifu.
Nchi nyingi za Africa zi navo tawaliwa na Madictetor kama Museveni wa Uganda, Bunge halina nguvu ni kama rubber stamp, pamoja na kumhoji sidhani kama hilo bunge lina weza kumfanya lolote huyu M7.
Today in Parliament, I questioned the Regime's deployment of UPDF troops in DR Congo without Parliamentary approval, contrary to our Constitution and the UPDF Act of 2005. This was after UPDF's Spokesperson confirmed in the morning that Uganda's military had "launched air and artillery strikes against ADF camps" in D R Congo.
As we may recall, in the 1990s when UPDF soldiers fought in DRC, their commanders plundered Congo's natural resources and Uganda was eventually ordered by the International Court of Justice to pay UGX 10 trillion in reparations — money that we are yet to pay. We therefore stand to lose even more in terms of life and resources for engaging in wars which may have been prevented or guided through Parliamentary oversight.
In response to my concern, the Speaker has directed Government to make a formal statement.
