KAMPALA - There was drama again in Kampala when Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni and Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi almost exchanged blows during a heated argument on the last day of the 15th African Union Summit in Uganda.

From the begining of the Summit, the two leaders argued on almosts everything on agenda as Gaddafi pushed for his United African States agenda which Museveni and other Sub-Saharan leaders are saying is a plot to spread Islam.

On the last day, the Libyan leader pushed too far his Ugandan counter-part who cracked and jumped from his chair confronting and gesturing towards the bemused Gaddafi.

On Sunday, there was drama when Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi's Presidential guards were involved in fist-fight with Ugandan Presidential guards in a huge argument at the opening of the African Union summit.

It is believed Uganda is privately accusing Colonel Muammar Gaddafi of involvement in recent terrorism attacks in which two suicide bomb killed 76 people as they watched the World Cup final in Kampala.

So Ugandan Presidential guards didn't want Gaddafi's guards closer to African Heads of State at the Summit as a security precaution, but Gaddafi's sidekicks were having none of it and as a result a huge row errupted.

Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni has been at the fore front rejecting Gaddafi's audacious call for United Africa which is said to be a plan to spread Islam in Africa.

The Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has also made controversial remarks calling for Nigeria to be divided, and some in Nigeria have fingered him the recent violence between Christians and Moslems which have left hundreds dead.

Archibald, l think what you could have done is just to send an email, to the Admnstrator the email address is there. this platform is not this kind of comment..show maturity... l did not see that errors, and l suspect that could happen to the Editor as well, and that may not suggest there is no Editor.. this is rather reckless, and an uncalled for...

Comment on the contents of the article.. not only one spelling error after 5oo words with correct spelling.

Try post your name on a ward document it will tell you that it can be spell in two different ways... Hitted and Heated, he was to close. the message delivered...But correct him in a professional way...

We want progressive minds, human is to error.

I support a United Afirika. I do not believe that attempting to islamicize Afirika through this unity will ever work. IN FACT I KNOW THAT SUCH AN ENDEAVOUR IS DOOMED TO FUTILITY.
