President Museveni has told a private meeting attended by 20 MPs from the ruling NRM party that it is not possible to remove him from power the same way ousted Libyan leader Col Muammar Gaddafi was.<\/div>\n
Museveni, who was reportedly perplexed by Gaddafi’s failure “to shoot down even one” NATO plane, attributed the former Libyan strongman’s travails to his use of obsolete military equipment. Apparently, the new equipment Gaddafi had ordered from Russia could not reach him before NATO attacked.<\/div>\n
Museveni revealed that African leaders converged in Ethiopia with a plan to save Gaddafi. The leaders had planned to issue NATO with an ultimatum, but apparently the man they were trying to save had nearly surrendered. A confident Museveni then reportedly told his visitors that NATO cannot make the mistake of attacking another African country.<\/div>\n
“They cannot attack a black African country,” he insisted.<\/div>\n
The President has, since August 30, been meeting mainly new NRM MPs in groups of about 20 at his country homes. He spoke about Libya while meeting the second such group during the first week of this month at the private residence of his wife Janet Kataha in Ntungamo.<\/div>\n
The MPs travelled to Ntungamo in a Coaster minibus with a private registration number. Ntoroko MP, Martin Mugarura, selected the 20 legislators for this trip as well as those who attended the first meeting.<\/div>\n
