In the midst of internal turmoil and finger-pointing within the ranks of the Makerere-Kavule based National Unity Platform (NUP), Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu Alias Bobi Wine has made a significant decision by appointing Dr. Lina Zedriga Walu, the party’s Deputy President for Northern Uganda, to temporarily assume the role of president.

Based on a document obtained by our publication, Bobi Wine has delegated the responsibilities of the NUP presidency to Dr. Zedriga on an acting basis as he departs the country for a period of 10 days for undisclosed foreign matters.

This announcement comes at a time when NUP finds itself embroiled in controversy and internal discord, particularly concerning the allocation of a ‘Service Award’ fund amounting to Shs500 million.

This was granted to Mathias Mpuuga, the Deputy President for Buganda, former Leader of the Opposition, and Commissioner, by parliament.

In response to the contentious issue, NUP has advised Mpuuga to step down, citing the need for accountability and transparency.

However, Mpuuga has refused to resign, alleging that the party leadership is operating it akin to a family enterprise.

However , Citing Article 7 (1) g of the NUP constitution, Bobi Wine has officially transferred the presidential duties to Dr. Zedriga in an acting capacity, effective from March 5th to March 15th, 2024.

NUP MP SSEGONA REACTS

Meanwhile, Busiro East Member of Parliament Medard Sseggona has accused NUP president Robert Kyagulanyi of mishandling the situation surrounding corruption allegations against his deputy Mathias Mpuuga.

Sseggona criticised Kyagulanyi’s approach, stating, “If you are a leader and you are the first to make such a statement, it’s wrong because as a leader when you speak, nobody else is going to speak.”

This criticism comes in response to Kyagulanyi’s public accusation against Mpuuga, who allegedly received a 500 million shillings “good service award” from Parliament, triggering accusations of corruption and abuse of office

In a retaliatory move, Mpuuga accused Kyagulanyi of “orchestrating and funding a campaign to character assassinate him “, further complicating the situation.As allegations and counter-allegations continue to surface, the party’s internal unity and public perception hang in the balance.

The rift within NUP leadership raises questions about the party’s ability to navigate internal conflicts and maintain a united front amidst external pressures.
