Fred Nyanzi Ssentamu, brother of Bobi Wine and National Unity Platform (NUP) leader, recently celebrated his wedding in style. However, his attempt to share the joy with the people of Kampala turned sour yesterday when he took his wedding cake to the city.

Traders in Kampala, already frustrated with the unfair taxation system dubbed EFRIS, were disappointed by Nyanzi’s gesture, seeing it as insensitive and mocking.As Nyanzi arrived in the city with his wedding cake, traders confronted him, expressing their anger and frustration.

The situation quickly escalated, with some traders to attack Nyanzi who saw his actions as tone-deaf and disrespectful. The traders felt that Nyanzi was celebrating while they were struggling to make ends meet due to the harsh economic conditions.

“This is not the time for celebrations, we are suffering!” said one trader, who wished to remain anonymous. “How can he come here with his cake and expect us to join in when we are barely surviving?”

Nyanzi’s attempt to celebrate with the people of Kampala was seen as a publicity stunt, and the traders were not having it. They told him to take his cakes and leave the city, as his celebration was a stark reminder of their struggles.

The incident highlights the growing discontent among traders and citizens regarding the unfair taxation system and the government’s lack of response to their plight.”We are tired of being oppressed by this government, and now they want to rub it in our faces with their celebrations?” said another trader, who was part of the confrontation.

“We won’t stand for it!”

Nyanzi’s gesture, although well-intentioned, was poorly timed and insensitive. It is crucial for leaders to be aware of the struggles of the people they represent and to show empathy and understanding. The incident serves as a reminder of the need for leaders to be in touch with the people’s concerns and to address the issues affecting them.

“We demand justice and fairness, not cakes and celebrations!” said a trader, who was holding a placard with the words “EFRIs Must Go!”

In conclusion, the incident involving Fred Nyanzi Ssentamu and the traders in Kampala is a wake-up call for leaders to be more aware of the people’s struggles and to show empathy and understanding. The government must also take concrete steps to address the unfair taxation system and alleviate the suffering of the people.

“The people are suffering, and we need solutions, not celebrations,” said a bystander, who witnessed the confrontation. “Let’s focus on fixing the problems, not celebrating while people suffer.”
