The Member of Parliament for Ayivu county Mr Bernard Atiku has said he was not lured into joining the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) party but joined to get part of the national cake for West Nile region.

“My coming to NRM has been a well thought out decision, I have not been lured to join NRM neither have I been pushed, it is a personal decision that represents voices of the majority of people in Ayivu county and therefore I want to allay fears of whoever is having another thought about my joining NRM”, Atiku stated.

He said he will remain friends with colleagues and friends who are heartbroken because of his decision but called them to also join the party.

“As West Nile, we don’t need to shy away from NRM, I speak as a grandson of a chief who moved a motion saying let us receive NRM in peace, no son of West Nile should raise the barrel of the gun against the NRA and I think from that time to date, those who have attempted to raise the barrel of the gun against the NRA/NRM have also negotiated peacefully to abandon rebellion”, he added.

Atiku who said he is going to contest in the yet to be announced Ayivu West constituency scoffed at those who had hopes of carrying the NRM flag that nominations had been closed with his entrance.

He said as a young leader, he had joined NRM among those who had been patiently waiting to manage the imminent political transition in the country.

Atiku also said he had seen light at the end of the tunnel following the signing of the contract to extend the national grid to West Nile region and the granting of the city status to Arua.

The chairman of NRM party in Ayivu Division Mr Cyril Eriku said Atiku had made them to lose a lot of development projects from the government because as an opposition MP he could not lobby enough from the government.

Ms Joyce Amaguru, the district NRM vice chairperson said the entrance of Atiku into NRM had opened the doors for other opposition MPs to join the party.

Atiku’s political journey began in reform agenda while still a student at Makerere University which latter transformed into Forum for Democratic Change. He later in 2006 contested as district councillor for Adumi sub county beating long serving Cyril Eriku and served as chairman social services committee of the district council.

This would later serve a launch pad for the Ayivu constituency still under FDC to beat the incumbent Margaret Angufiru to join the 9th parliament. But his relations with the FDC started to sour up and in 2016 he opted out and contested as an independent which he easily won.

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent. It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu". We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service. If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Here is Why Our Utterances For Praying Jesus And God To Come Liberate Ugandans, May Be Misplaced. This Phrase is like inform of a Letter To Some Categorized Section Of Ugandans.

Last week of March, a friend told me to pray for Uganda. I told him that he was an Idiot and we have prayed for too long and we are still hungry and sick and Jesus is not coming soon to liberate us. He then ignored the STUPID and sent me a picture we all now know. It got me totally messed up. This guy was telling me to pray then sends a picture of men bowing down in blood. He might have meant guns but I blocked him because his utterances of praying for Uganda were misplaced. I unblocked him 3 weeks later and asked him about praying and assassinations. His reply "eithrr prayers or guns or both". I hate violence with a passion. So he is now blocked in like FOREVER. Do you feel safe? Do not feel safe. Uganda regim...

Okello lost his wife 20 years ago and decided to only focus on their Mateo, Yona and Yosefu. 20 years later, Okello had 7 acres of land, a successful poultry business, and sinotrucks for hire. Early this year, Okello got a call telling him that one of his trucks knocked a boda boda. Okello decided to rush to see if he could sort it out before police became involved. Unfortunately, he never made it, as he was entering the main road, another trailer rammed into him and killed him instantly. After Okello had been laid to rest, his sons sat down and divided the property amongst themselves. However, of late, Yosefu the last born has started complaining that he was cheated, and he wants to be given something else because most of the chicken in the chicken business died of a fever.
