ON September 14, one of Uganda's dailies ran the story implicating Amama Mbabazi in ENI oil bribery scandal. This follows the Wikileaks revelation. However, I have a different view basing on the hypocrisy and imperialistic tendencies of some western powers.

What is obscure is the failure by the bribe giver to shed light on the terms of the transaction. This makes the whole story a hoax orchestrated by external forces interested in Uganda's oil.

The US has made a firm grip on Africa's oil fields of Nigeria, Angola, Chad, Congo Brazzaville, Equatorial Guinea and Angola. Therefore, Uganda is targeted as the new entrant.

Some Western embassies in Uganda are probably playing a hypocritical tactic to penetrate Uganda's oil market. Amama Mbabazi's case is just a tip of an iceberg; we are yet to see more drama. Given the projection that by 2015 Africa will supply up to a quarter of the US domestic oil consumption, the US might be looking for the easiest means to undo powerful Ugandan leaders to protect its economic interests.

If the source of Wikileaks information is the US embassy in Uganda, then the embassy is using "strike the shepherd scatter the sheep" strategy in the new scramble for Uganda's oil. The recent Wikileaks whistle blowing could reflect the capitalists complex plan to turn Uganda into a commercial warren for hunting lucrative oil fields.

Amama Mbabazi is most likely used as a scapegoat for a bigger sub-conscious elimination plan.....more
