Rwandan President Paul Kagame recently dropped seasoned Ugandan journalist Andrew Mwenda from his list of advisors.
Andrew Mwenda who was appointed to the 23-man Presidential Advisory Committee (PAC) in 2011 during one of their annual meetings in NewYork, USA, was dropped over ‘diplomatic reasons’ in the changes by President Kagame that saw six new faces take over places in the PAC.
Mr Himbara who is familiar with Kagame’s ways, said it was unacceptable for Mwenda not to be entirely on Rwanda’s side.
“The Mwenda piece seems to be tame and reasonable. But in the land of sycophants we call Rwanda, Mwenda committed high treason for not calling Kagame a saint, and for not calling Museveni, evil,” Himbara said.
However, thecapitaltimes has established that following Mwenda’s sacking, the poor man is now lobbying for State House fatty Job through Uganda’s First son Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba.
We’ve learnt that in due process, Mwenda paraded one of Africa’s billionaire to President Museveni to show how committed he is.
Further, to show his loyalty, Mwenda is furious and not happy with former Security Minister, Gen. Tumukunde’s bid for presidency. In his tweets, Mwenda slams Tumukunde’s points saying they are baseless and found of lies.
When in power, Tumukunde bribed & intimidated journalists, threatened & sabotaged media houses, & talked ill of journalists & journalism! Now he has realized the value of a free press which is giving him a platform to raise his concerns! But does he remember his record?

Watching Tumukunde on NBS reminded of Grace Ibingira’s 1966 quip: Fate is a great joker, it always laughs last! Tumukunde lied to @KagutaMuseveni that Kale Kayihura was colluding with @PaulKagame to overthrow govt. Now Tumukunde is appealing to Kagame to help him overthrow M7!
