TOP STORY!! Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja Slapped Hard On The Face By Voter, See What Really Happened

A dramatic scene unfolded on Tuesday in Kakumiro District when Uganda’s Prime Minister, Robinah Nabbanja, was allegedly slapped during chaotic clashes at the NRM party primaries. The incident, which took place in her own home district, has stunned the nation and intensified scrutiny over rising tensions within the ruling party.

According to eyewitness accounts, violence erupted at one polling station when rival factions of NRM supporters clashed over claims of vote rigging and bribery. As tempers flared, Nabbanja arrived in an effort to de-escalate the situation. However, events quickly spiraled out of control.

Amid the chaos, a female supporter—still unidentified—reportedly struck the Prime Minister across the face in full view of the crowd. “It happened in an instant,” recalled one witness. “She was trying to calm people down, and suddenly, someone stepped forward and slapped her.”

Security personnel rushed in to restore order, but not before the incident left a lasting impact on the shocked crowd. Many described the moment as both humiliating and revealing of deeper unrest within the party’s grassroots.

Local NRM officials confirmed the violent disruptions and condemned the assault on Nabbanja, calling it “a disgraceful act that must not go unpunished.” They pledged to investigate the source of the violence and hold those responsible accountable.

The altercation has sparked widespread discussion, both online and among political analysts, raising serious questions about discipline within the NRM and the rising frustration of its base. Critics argue that the incident reflects a growing disconnect between party leadership and ordinary members, especially in rural areas.

Observers say the slap, though symbolic, is a wake-up call for the NRM. “This wasn’t just about one person getting attacked—it’s about deeper issues bubbling beneath the surface,” noted one political commentator.

What began as a routine primary election has now turned into a national controversy, highlighting the vulnerability of even the highest-ranking officials in the face of public anger. As investigations continue, many are urging the NRM to urgently address internal grievances before they spiral further out of control.
