Abstract Although Yoweri Museveni’s National Resistance Movement (NRM) has dominated Uganda’s political scene for over three decades, the capital Kampala refuses to submit to the NRM’s grip. As opposition activism in the city has become increasingly explosive, the ruling elite has developed a widening range of strategies to try and win urban support and constrain opposition. In this paper, we subject the NRM’s strategies over the decade 2010-2020 to close scrutiny. We explore elite strategies pursued both from the ‘top down’, through legal and administrative manoeuvres and a ramping up of violent coercion, and from the ‘bottom up’, through attempts to build support among urban youth and infiltrate organisations in the urban informal transport sector. Although this evolving suite of strategies and tactics has met with some success in specific places and times, opposition has constantly resurfaced.

  • Speech to Parliament by H.E. Yoweri Kaguta Museveni President of The
    Speech to Parliament By H.E. Yoweri Kaguta Museveni President of the Republic of Uganda Parliamentary Buildings - 13th December, 2012 1 Rt. Hon. Speaker, I have decided to use the rights of the President, under Article 101 (2) of the 1995 Constitution of the Republic of Uganda, to address Parliament. I am exercising this right in order to counter the nefarious and mendacious campaign of the foreign interests, using NGOs and some Members of Parliament, to try and cripple or disorient the development of the Oil sector. If the Ugandans may remember, this is not the first time these interests try to distort the development of our history. When we were fighting the Sudanese-sponsored terrorism of Kony or when we were fighting the armed cattle- rustlers in Karamoja, you remember, there were groups, including some religious leaders, Opposition Members of Parliament as well as NGOs, which would spend all the 2 time denouncing us, the Freedom Fighters. They were denouncing those who were fighting to defend the lives and properties of the people, rather than denouncing the terrorists, the cattle-rustlers and their external-backers (in the case of Kony) as well as their internal collaborators. It would appear as if the wrong-doer was the Government, the NRM, rather than the criminals. We, patiently, put up with that malignment at the same time as we fought, got injured or killed, against the enemy until we achieved victory. Eventually, we won, supported by the ordinary people and the different people’s militias. There is total peace in the whole country and yet the misleaders of those years have not apologized to the Ugandans for their mendacity.

  • “Pressing the Right Buttons”
    0013EP “Pressing the Right Buttons” Jennifer Musisi for New City Leadership Epilogue ERIC WEINBERGER AND JORRIT DE JONG As head of the new Kampala Capital City Authority, Jennifer Musisi set her goals high: to increase revenue, fight corruption, and build the City’s financial capacity by creating a sustainable system of fee and tax collection, all while improving overall service delivery. She knew there would be serious resistance to change coming from populist politicians in both government and opposition (in Parliament, in Kampala, and in the KCCA). There would be intransigence from all directions: from her own officials, those in other agencies, powerful commercial forces including the many private collection agents now thrown out of business, and from hundreds of thousands of ordinary Kampalans who struggled to make a living, many of them as transit drivers, street vendors, or other kinds of traders, usually unregulated. Increasing Revenues Musisi’s success at improving collections in Kampala was practically immediate and continued for the first half of her nearly eight years in office. Over those four years, beginning with the 2011-12 fiscal year, overall own-source revenue (OSR) jumped 198 percent: KCCA own-source revenue (OSR) in billions of Ugandan shillings 2010-11 2011-12 2012-13 2013-14 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 30 39.5 55.06 70.1 80.4 85 85.75 Between FY 2012 and FY 2014, property tax revenues rose from UGX 11 billion to UGX 24 billioni ($3.3 million to $7.2 million), and parking fees (now including taxis) rose from UGX 5 billion to UGX 16 billion ($1.5 million to $4.8 million).
