The National Unity Platform (NUP) is set to launch Vote Bobi Wine Campaign Program Country Wide very soon in order to counter the lies, propaganda campaign stories being circulated by the National Resistance Movement (NRM) a party currently in power.
While appearing on a local television Ntv at a program dubbed Ebigambo Tebita, NUP’s vice president for Buganda Region who is also the Chair person of Buganda caucus in parliament and also a member of parliament for Butambala Hon Muwanga Kivumbi said that it’s now the right time to counter all lies being traded by the Nrm under their campaign program dubbed Vote Museveni 2026.
“What we the opposition are asking you the NRM is one thing,” let’s have a fair game, Says Hon Kivumbi.
Hon Muwanga Kivumbi appeared On the same program alongside NRM’s Vice Chairman for Buganda Region Hon Godfrey Kiwanda, Hon Rwakajara and Hon Ingrid Turinawe of the PFF party.
NRM’s Kiwanda urged that they began the new campaign program dubbed Vote Museveni in order to recapture all the support which they had lost from Buganda Region adding that the NRM government has now worked on most of the problems that had been faced by Ugandans especially the rural communities.
However to the contrary, Hon Kivumbi responded to him saying that instead, they have worsened the situation because of recent NRM’s actions towards the population has deteriorated.
Hon Muwanga cited the recent Kawempe North By-election violence which was created by the NRM’s government that saw Ugandans being beaten with electric wires adding that how can Nrm convince Ugandans that they should vote for them.
Kivumbi also revealed that in one or two weeks to come, all NRM Mps are going to vote for reinstating civilians to be tried again in Court Martial which was removed by the supreme Court.
“Who can convince any Ugandan to give you their votes after bringing back trying civilians in Court Martial?” Hon Muwanga Kivumbi asked Hon Kiwanda.
Most Ugandans have lost their loved ones, others are still being held in prisons for years because of being tried in Court Martial just because they didn’t support your government and again you want them to vote for your government, you are lying to yourself; Kivumbi tells off Kiwanda.
“What we are just asking you is , don’t bring your guns in our campaigns, don’t intimidate and beat our people and stop refusing us to be hosted on radio stations and televisions, just let us have a free campaign the way you are doing, Actually remain with your RDCs we have no problem and we see if your NRM will get any support from Ugandans,”Says Muwanga Kivumbi.
PFF’s Ingrid Turinawe also told Kiwanda how his NRM government is built on four pillars when it comes to elections naming them as, use of Guns which is from top up to the local village , Beating, arresting and intimidation of our people and supporters that begins from top and goes up to the village level, another one is vote bribery where Ugandans are given one bar of soap, a kilo of sugar and one sacket of salt, and lastly is vote Rigging that happens as their last option where they rigg votes in a broad day after doing all the violences on the voters.
Hon Ingrid added that, without those four pillars of Nrm during elections, it cannot get any vote in the whole country and urged Ugandans to keep fighting for their rights until they get NRM out of power.
