State legitimacy crisis in Uganda: A hotchpotch of deep state, military state and police state that represses or suppresses alternative opinion
We see erosion of peace and security in both rural and urban areas at a rate unimaginable after 2000. Ogega Otunnu (2017) has indicated that the crisis of state legitimacy and political violence in Uganda continues. He has looked at the crisis of state legitimacy under the Uganda National Liberation Movement/Army (UNLF/A) from 1979-1980, Uganda People’s Congress during Obote II from 1981/1985, Tito Okello military junta from 1985-1986 and National Resistance Movement under Tibuhaburwa Museveni from 1986-2016 (SpringerLink Search, 2020).
