NRM Might Be Behind The Attacks On Baganda Web News Outlets

Posted on 21 November 2009

It is unlikely to be a coincidence that over the last few weeks at least three Baganda Internet outlets, with strong pro-Buganda and pro-Kabaka positions have been hacked. These include www.ngomaradio.com, www.theugandacitizen.com and www.bugandapost.com.  We have not yet been able to independently confirm information from our readers in Uganda and London that the Museveni’s occupation  government is paying an Internet consulting company to continuously hack anti-NRM and anti-Museveni websites. However, for the time being, the operators of BugandaPost.com are working on the assumption that the Ugandan warlord have taken his genocidal oppression of Baganda to cyberspace.

This writer has attempted to access Ngoma Radio using five different types of browsers and in all cases the radio no longer plays. In the Apple Safari browser, even some of the text and images appear distorted. The Uganda Citizen site, is totally down and you get an error message when you attempt to access it.

Buganda Post has been attacked four times in as many weeks (see “Buganda Post Hacked By Unknown Hooligans“). It is now only reliably available using MS Explorer 7 or higher.  Also, the Opinions section is yet to be reconstructed after it was corrupted by the hacking. The chief moderator and editor, Omulongo Nakato, is working around the clock to get a permanent solution.  According to reports from the UK, the operators of Ngoma Radio are similarly working hard to get the radio online as soon as possible.  This writer has not yet been able to reliably establish who operates Ngoma Radio.
