“Every NRM Supporter Should Unfollow Me Immediately Coz We Ain’t One, It’s Because Of Them That Ugandans Are Suffering” Bobi Wine’s Son Speaks

Uganda’s political friction has now spilled into the digital arena after Solomon Kampala, son of opposition leader Bobi Wine, issued a striking message to his followers. Using Instagram, Solomon bluntly told anyone backing the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) to cut ties with him. His words reflect the growing discontent among Ugandans weary of President Yoweri Museveni’s decades-long grip on power.
In his post, Solomon declared: “If you are NRM or joyfully affiliated with NRM, unfollow and remove me as a follower. We are not one. We do not agree. And we will never ever agree. Unless a peaceful resignation of power or agreement is passed.” The uncompromising statement left no doubt about where he stands, drawing a firm line between himself and the ruling party.
The post quickly ignited discussion across social platforms. To many, Solomon’s outright rejection of NRM ties is more than personal—it signals the determination of a younger generation unwilling to remain silent in the face of political repression.
He later revealed the emotional burden of living through Uganda’s ongoing turmoil, writing, “The people of Uganda have suffered too much. I have sleepless nights crying for my people. But one day we will be free.” His words conveyed both anguish and hope, echoing the defiant spirit long embodied by his father.
Analysts argue that Solomon’s message is not just symbolic but a deliberate act of political resistance. By telling NRM supporters to unfollow him, he has transformed his social media presence into a platform for activism, providing a space where young Ugandans can find solidarity and express dissent.
Observers further note that this bold declaration could energize youth opposition supporters, many of whom already view social media as their safest avenue for political engagement. Solomon’s stance highlights how technology is reshaping activism and creating new ways for the next generation to challenge entrenched power.
As Uganda continues to grapple with its political future, voices like Solomon Kampala’s demonstrate that the call for freedom and justice is passing from one generation to the next. By speaking out, he is showing that young Ugandans are not just witnesses to history but active participants in shaping what comes next.
