I addressed the leaders of the Bunyoro sub-region and, having listened to their Memorandum, I advised them to plan for development in their areas based on the available resources. Having been in the army for 54 years, since 1971, we have often worked for little or no pay. During our fight against Amin, we asked Nyerere for guns only; if we had asked for salaries, where would he have found the money to do so? For 16 years during the struggle, we fought for free. When we joined the government, we began to receive pay. Our strong army is a testament to our discipline.
