National Unity Platform (NUP) official John Bosco Kibalama is currently out of the country, according to the army. Army spokesperson Major General Felix Kulayigye confirmed the news, saying, “Actually, what I can tell you is that Kibalama is out of the country.”
Maj Gen Kulayigye added that Kibalama did not follow legal procedures to leave Uganda. “He flew himself illegally from Uganda,” the army spokesman said, highlighting that Kibalama’s departure was unauthorized.
The news has raised questions about Kibalama’s movements and the reasons behind his sudden departure. Political observers are now closely watching the situation, as leaving the country illegally could have legal consequences for the NUP official.
Kibalama’s escape comes at a time when political tensions in Uganda remain high, and the army is keeping a close eye on opposition activities. Authorities may investigate how and why he managed to leave the country without approval.
This incident is likely to draw public attention, particularly among NUP supporters and critics alike, as it underscores ongoing challenges in Uganda’s political landscape. Citizens are waiting for further statements from both Kibalama and the government regarding his whereabouts and the circumstances of his exit.
