“NUP Is Too Weak To Handle Uganda, Let Bobi Wine Just Quit The Presidential Race” Museveni’s Blue Eyed Girl Nabbanja Openly Tells
Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja has called on the opposition National Unity Platform (NUP) to step out of Uganda’s presidential race, describing the party as too weak and divided to lead the country. She made the remarks on Sunday during a fundraising event at St Joseph’s Catholic Church in Nyendo, Masaka City, asserting that NUP is plagued by internal conflicts and cannot be trusted with the responsibility of governing Uganda.
Nabbanja pointed to the recent split within NUP, which led to the formation of the Democratic Front (DF), as evidence of the party’s instability. “NUP knows very well that they cannot manage this country. They have already failed and even split to form DF. That alone shows their level of weakness,” she said, urging NUP leader Robert Kyagulanyi, popularly known as Bobi Wine, to withdraw from the race.
Turning her focus to DF, the Prime Minister advised its leader, Mathias Mpuuga, and other smaller parties to stop wasting time in political disagreements. She encouraged them to collaborate with older parties such as the Democratic Party (DP) and eventually join the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM). According to Nabbanja, only the NRM has the experience, organization, and stability required to effectively deliver services to Ugandans.
“I advise DF and other small parties to stop wasting time in endless wrangles. Instead, they should join NRM so that together we can serve Ugandans better,” she said. Her statements emphasized confidence in the NRM’s strong structures and underscored her belief that unity under the ruling party is essential for national development.
Nabbanja also criticized opposition politicians in Masaka for allegedly trying to take credit for government projects. She warned locals not to be misled, stressing that infrastructure developments in the region, including roads, were fully funded and implemented by the government. “Let no one deceive you. These roads are government projects, not Namayanja’s or any opposition projects. No opposition leader has built a road here,” she stated firmly.
The Premier reminded the public that, while opposition leaders often gain media attention, it is the NRM government that delivers tangible services. She stressed that Uganda’s development should not be politicized, pointing out that infrastructure and other public services are part of government programs, not individual initiatives by opposition figures.
In her closing remarks, Nabbanja shifted to matters of faith and community. She encouraged the congregation at St Joseph’s Catholic Church to remain strong, united, and hopeful. “Do not grow weary in doing good. With faith and determination, this church will be completed. Let us focus our hearts on the Holy Spirit and support one another,” she said, leaving the crowd with a message of unity, resilience, and collective effort.
