Shame.
@HEBobiwine@Olara_Otunnu@UN We don’t endorse him he is coming to work for Museveni to block the oppressed Ugandans to freedom. Boycott him boycott him we reject him
Dear @HEBobiwine,
Thank you! The people of Manjiya will be happy to hear me say this for the first time. @JNambeshe will also be happy because, as an elder in the clan, he knows my stand.
This is the type of politics I want you, as a young man, to play for the future. There comes a time when you must rise above personality and serve the nation.
Dr. OLARA OTUNU is a great asset to Uganda and a great man of the world. I thank you once again.
Let all Ugandans follow this example and support our own at world stage.
At least for the first time I can smile now -RECONCILIATION IS LOADING

The regime’s endorsement of Hon. Olara Otunu, is the cause of the many questions lingering on the minds of many oppressed Ugandans.
The same rotten regime refused in the past to endorse him, Why now?
What does the regime gain from his appointment (if at all he goes through)?
It should be understood that many oppressed Ugandans are not fighting Hon Olara Otunu. Many are fighting the dirty rouge system that endorsed him, knowing very well how badly the regime needs to cleanse its image on international level.
As a Ugandan, it fills me with pride to see an illustrious son of our nation carry a lifetime of global service, a fierce commitment to the vulnerable, and a deep passion for justice to the world stage.
For years, many of us have followed with great respect, Ambassador Olara Otunnu’s incredible track record at the United Nations.
His work championing human rights and protecting children in armed conflict is exactly the kind of leadership the global community desperately needs right now. True leadership is measured by integrity, vision, and an unwavering dedication to peace and justice.
We can not forget the historical injustice when the Museveni regime vindictively denied him an endorsement for this very position years ago. They blocked him for simply refusing to stay silent about the atrocities they were committing against our people. Perhaps if he had risen to that position at the time, the world would be fairer, more just, and more peaceful.
Central to his vision is a profound passion for genuine multilateral reform, where international institutions must evolve beyond mere arenas of superpower politics to become true instruments of equity, accountability, and shared prosperity for all nations.
I hear some citizens who are raising tough questions about why the regime has suddenly changed its mind to endorse him now. Your scepticism is understandable, given what the bloodthirsty regime is doing to our people. And I know Ambassador Otunnu to be a man of deep humility who welcomes free speech and receives your concerns with grace. We can all bank on his long-term, proven integrity and hope that when he rises to become the world’s top diplomat, he will never turn a blind eye to the ongoing struggle for freedom in his own motherland. As he has consistently acknowledged, Uganda faces dark spots that need fixing.
Ambassador Otunnu has my full solidarity and prayers as he carries our collective aspirations for a fairer world to the global stage.
Will those who accused Baganda of unfairly opposing a northerner, Olara Otunnu, now apologize?
And what about those who, without knowing NUP’s official position, prematurely declared that opposition to Otunnu’s bid represented the position of NUP or Bobi Wine supporters? Will they now acknowledge their preconceived bias and apologize to NUP, now that the party’s president has publicly stated its official position?
For the record, I still oppose Otunnu’s bid, and I believe I am perfectly entitled to that position.
And yes, I still support Bobi Wine because I know for sure that supporting a political leader does not require surrendering independent thought, and that’s what makes us better than Museveni’s cult political party.
Joining the great people of Tooro Kingdom and all Ugandans in praying for the quick recovery and restoration of the health of His Majesty King Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru🙏🏽
