Description

Colonel Kutesa provides important insights into the ideology and principles of the NRA and the events that triggered the rebellion which resulted in the ouster of the Obote II and the Okello Lutwa regimes. He traces his own growth and development from a naive young student to an adult troubled by political turmoil, presents his own reasons for joining in what he refers to as 'the struggle', and discusses the various roles he played in the course of the war and afterwards. <p> <b>About Author</b> <p> Brigadier Pecos Kutesa was born in Masaka District in 1956. He did his O and A levels at Masaka Secondary School between 1971 and 1975. He was, in 1986, promoted to colonel and appointed commander of the 4th Division headquartered in Gulu.
