Amama Mbabazi is finally ready to spill the actual tea about the Kabamba barracks raid that kicked off the NRA bush war back in the 80s. The former prime minister dropped some correction receipts at the anniversary launch, saying 44 fighters attacked with just 27 guns instead of the 40 or 41 people everyone always talks about. He mentioned the assault got delayed by a day, which meant they had to scramble and warn their inside guys at the base about the schedule change.
Mbabazi and commanders Sam Magara plus Akanga Byaruhanga got sent by Museveni to handle the message delivery, but Akanga caught heat when he got nabbed moving around during the parade. They had to link up with collaborators Jeje Odongo and Muguta to spring him loose before the operation could go forward. The special envoy said only three people from the original Fronasa crew are still alive and locked in with the mission: himself, Museveni, and Ruhakana Rugunda.
The anniversary celebration is rolling through six Kigezi districts with medical camps, construction projects, and donations before the main event at Kabale grounds.
