Mukono Municipality Member of Parliament, Betty Nambooze has described the state of security as being in a worrying condition.
While appearing on NBS TV’s Morning Breeze on Tuesday, Nambooze noted that the state of security is worrying to the extent that people are not sure of reaching their homes safely.
She said that during the State Nation Address, President Museveni was very shallow when it came on the issue of security.
She stated that president would have addressed the issue of the country relations and unemployment.
“Ugandans are used to the situation where they don’t expect anything from the president,” she said.
She noted that the State of Nation Address was not a sitting room conversation between the president and legislators.
“I was disappointed that the president didn’t give honest accounts of what is really happening in the country,” she said.
She noted that she wanted president Museveni to talk about the security and the effectiveness of the CCTV cameras.
“Many people are being killed each day and for years nobody is giving us an account,” she noted.
She further added that the main strategy of opposition is to empower Ugandans and undertake activities meant to empower the public.
“If our people are civically competent, their people will be able to determine good governance to give us good government,” she said.
She said fighting for freedom has never been easy and no one should get frustrated when the president says bad things about the opposition.
“The struggle is on, we still have many things to coordinate as the opposition,” she said.
Nambooze added that opposition is thinking about creating a situation where Ugandans will be renegotiating the existence of the country.
