NUP’s candidate in Bukimbiri by-election crosses to NRM.

 




The ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) has finished its campaign in Bukimbiri Constituency by “fishing” the National Unity Platform (NUP)’s Joshua Mutabaazi and his group.

Mutabaazi was nominated as the NUP’s flag bearer for the Bukimbiri by-election last week, but he dropped out a few days later to join the FDC’s James Owebeyi.

After being greeted by the NRM team led by Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja, Mutabaazi immediately took the podium at Nkuringo town council and began campaigning for the NRM’s Eddie Kwizera.

Mutabaazi stated that he was disappointed with the NUP leadership in Kampala, who did not bother to motivate him, and that he discovered that the party has no future.

“As a result, I urge you to vote for NRM’s Kwizera, a man who is hardworking and ready to push forward the government’s development programmes rather than decampaigning them,” the now former NUP man said.

“Madam Prime Minister, I am not alone; I have a group of people behind me who are eager to serve the NRM,” he added.

The now former NUP man was welcomed by the NRM party’s Secretary General, Richard Tawdwong, who cautioned him to follow proper procedures by registering and becoming a full fledged member of the NRM.

Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja has urged all opposition members not to waste their time in ineffective parties. Nabbanja also promised to meet with the NUP party structures in Kisoro because NRM welcomes all.

“NRM party welcomes everyone, please be free if you feel that you are not contended where you are we are ready to recieve you,” Nabbanja said.

In her remarks while receiving Mutabaazi, Vice President Jessica Alupo commended the people of Kisoro for their calmness during the campaigns and urged them to keep that spirit going until the elections were over.

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.

https://m.facebook.com/yusufosuta/photos/a.1896701010557789/2070383359856219/?type=3 OPEN LETTER TO NRM SUPPORTERS - NATIONAL ROBBERS MOVEMENT. .................................................................................. 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...
