Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Self-Government for Uganda: An African State Manifesto When King Mutesa I was asking the explorer H.M. Stanley to send him missionaries to teach him and his people, he said that he was in darkness and that he was like a blind man and what he needed most was to get light. It was that light which King Mutesa I invited which became a torch to Uganda. But Uganda will not be contented with only a torch light; she needs the full lumination from within. It is the greatest aim of the Progressive Party to see that Uganda gets the full light: The Light of knowledge; The Light of ™ The Light of progress. Our Aim Anyone who bothers to read what follows in this memorandum, will find that we have no other objective except to fulfil that longing which Mutesa I had for his country,- full development. Never Meant Surrender Of Sovereignty It is now 80 years since Mutesa I said those words. But Buganda had existed for generations long before him as a sovereign state. It had never known any foreign rule, and when Mutesa I invited missionaries he never realised that in the end it would mean surrender of his and his neighbours sovereignty. It was left to his descendants to discover rather too late that they were under colonial rule. Mutesa I asked for light for a sovereign state. No state can attain the full light under a foreign domination. Consequently, unless we overthrow colonialism first, we can never hope to comprehend that light fully. That is why the P.P. is determined to lead Uganda to self-government at an early date. Broad Policy In the pages that follow we give broad policy and not the detailed working plans. The plans for items of policy are known, but will not be revealed until an appropriate moment. E.M. K.Mulira.
