How the opposition leader has blundered on the chance to
promote his political project – if he has any
Media reports have recently indicated there are attempts to
organise talks between the government and the opposition. For such talks to be
meaningful, they have to involve President Yoweri Museveni and his main rival,
Dr. Kizza Besigye. Even before anything tangible could materialise, however,
Besigye was already bragging that “the dictatorship” is weak and has,
therefore, approached him and his people “begging” for talks. The government,
meanwhile, was denying involvement in any talks.
