The Struggle For Freedom & Democracy Betrayed: Memoirs Of Miria Matembe As An Insider In Museveni's Government

In typical Miria Matembe no-holds barred style, she in this book tells of her experience as an insider and Minister in President Yoweri Museveni's Government that strip bare the ugly side of the once revered revolutionary regime. Without fear of favour, she gives a stinging account of how the grand schemes of vulgarization of the constitution, politics of corruption, patronage and deceit are hatched and orchestrated to entrench Musevenism in Uganda. She unmasks President Museveni's dictatorial personality and his tactics to keep an iron hand grip on individuals and the nation. Hon Matembe reveals the shocking incidences of total reluctance by the NRM Government to fight corruption, but instead promote it as a fuel that powers its engine. Can a Government that holds onto power through corruption have the will to fight it?

Hon. Matembe witnessed all these unfortunate events of the making of a dictator and in this Autobiography, she tells it all - as she saw it.
