That he picked on a Kizige to fight nzige before their time shows he’s a prophet
Back to 2016, Yoweri Museveni appointed Kizige state minister for Karamoja. Four years later, the biggest humanitarian, economic and entomological threat to Uganda emerged on the horizon from the east—the desert locusts called nzige. ILLUSTATION | JOHN NYAGA | NMG
In February 2016, Comrade Yoweri Museveni won the presidential election and called the press for a briefing. Giving insight of the things to come, Museveni who was in high spirits predicted—now we can safely say prophesied—that the political opposition as we knew it then would be no more by the time the next election is held in 2021.
As is expected of the winning candidate, Comrade Museveni went ahead to start selecting his cabinet. Now we have this difficult area called Karamoja in the north east of the country, bordering Kenya.
