Minsters; Muruli Mukasa, Godfrey Kiwanda, Raphael Magyezi and Sam Kutesa Quit 2021 MP Race.


    

State Minister for Tourism, Godfrey Kiwanda Suubi, has become the latest ruling NRM figure to pull out of the race for MP in the 2021 general elections.

He announced Thursday announced that he will not be seeking re-election for the Mityana North parliamentary seat, just a week to the National Resistance Movement (NRM) party primaries.

Kiwanda’s withdrawal from the race leaves Muhamad Kibedi Nsegumire unopposed in the race for the NRM flag for the area.

He becomes the fourth minister after Sam Kutesa (Foreign Affairs), Muruli Mukasa (Public Service) and Raphael Magyezi (Local Government) not to seek re-election in the 2021 General Election.

The 47-year-old, who has represented Mityana North for 15 unbroken years since 2006, told Sunday Monitor that his election last week as NRM vice chairperson for central region requires him to concentrate on the work of mobilising for the party in order to ensure victory in next year’s elections.

“I have withdrawn from the race for Mityana North in order to concentrate on the CEC (Central Executive Committee) activities because my region is highly political since it is where all the Opposition crops from,” he told the newspaper.

Political trends in the country point at Buganda being the likely launchpad for the Kyadondo East MP, Robert Kyagulanyi better known as Bobi Wine, who gunning for the presidency on the ticket of the National Unity Platform (NUP) party.

The party, which merged with the popular People Power movement, has already shaken well-established Opposition political parties, including the Democratic Party (DP), taking away majority of MPs from Uganda’s oldest party.

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.   Can ...
