@ReachDrMuganga@DaudiKabanda@Thomas_Tayebwa Under Ugandan law, dual citizens are restricted from holding certain public offices, including ministerial positions. The discussion should therefore focus on the legal provisions and their application, rather than on questions of origin or identity.
The easiest question should be the easiest to answer: How was a diplomatic passport obtained by someone who doesn’t appear to fall under the usual categories of holders? Until that is clearly explained, the questions won’t go away.
Hon. @DaudiKabanda, with due respect, I must set the record straight. I do NOT hold a Rwandan passport. This is a deliberate falsehood introduced by Hon. Thomas Tayebwa, and the truth must be told.
We have it ON RECORD — Hon. @Thomas_Tayebwa’s own words: “In every vetting session we have to fail someone, and this time it had to be you, Dr. Muganga.” Read that again. This rejection was decided before the process even began. It was never about passports, qualifications, or integrity. It was personal. It was calculated. It was discriminatory. And in due course, we shall release the audio that proves it. Stay tuned.
Hon. Kabanda, what I experienced in that committee was not parliamentary oversight. It was hatred. It was discrimination. It was racism, directed at me simply because I am a Munyarwanda.
Let me be clear: We Banyarwanda are Ugandans. We were born here. We pay taxes here. We build institutions here. We have given our lives to serve this nation. I personally have spent decades working tirelessly for Uganda, conducting thousands of interviews, engaging with thousands of people, sitting in hundreds of boardroom meetings across 56 countries. In all those years and in all those rooms, I have never once encountered the kind of hostility that Hon. Tayebwa directed at me. Not once. And to this day, I cannot understand the depth of hatred he carries toward Banyarwanda. I do not have to take my word for it. Ask the other members of the Appointment Committee, including those from the Opposition side. They were there. They witnessed it.
So I ask one simple question: what is Hon. Tayebwa so afraid of? What remains hidden that my presence at Internal Affairs would threaten to uncover?
Uganda belongs to ALL its citizens equally. Banyarwanda included. We are not second class citizens. We will not be treated as such. This selective and discriminatory application of the law must be called out loudly, and it must stop. The law is not a weapon to be aimed at one community of our own people.
We are Ugandan. We belong here. And we will not be silenced.

He claims the whole committee saw Hon Tayebwa’s "hatred" firsthand. Yet opposition members who owe him no loyalty have stayed quiet. Either the scene was staged, or the facts don’t match the drama. We have a lot of questions and less answers.
@ReachDrMuganga@DaudiKabanda@Thomas_Tayebwa Dr Muganga drops one selective line from Hon Tayebwa and calls it proof. Where is the full recording? If vetting was rigged from the start, the tape will show it. If not, he’s just selling a soundbite nothing much to be honest.
This wasn’t about nationality or ethnicity. It was about honesty and compliance with the law. If facts established the existence of multiple passports after an initial denial, then accountability not identity is the issue. Facts matter.

@ReachDrMuganga@DaudiKabanda@Thomas_Tayebwa Rejecting scrutiny as discrimination is misleading when the concern raised is credibility. If there was nothing to hide, why deny what investigations later established? Public debate should be guided by facts, not emotion or ethnic narratives.
@ReachDrMuganga@DaudiKabanda@Thomas_Tayebwa Funny how those who cheered laws against foreign influence now want exceptions when it suits them. The same goes for unanswered questions on dual citizenship and eligibility for public office. Consistency matters.
