Fellow Ugandans and especially the Bazzukulu. Greetings from the Old Man with a hat. Congratulations on the nearly ending elections─ Presidential, Parliamentary, Local Govts and, eventually, LC1s. Over the course of the campaigns, I addressed 143 rallies across 153 districts, engaging directly with our people in what I found to be consultative and celebratory gatherings.
The elections have clarified the real balance of forces in Uganda. The strength and membership of the NRM demonstrate overwhelming national support. Even as we acknowledge outstanding issues such as UPE gaps, corruption, feeder roads and shortages of drugs in health centres, the Movement remains firmly rooted among the people. As we resolve these issues, our support will only grow stronger.
Deputy of Parliament Speaker Thomas Tayebwa has welcomed over 17 MP flag bearers from NUP and FDC at NRM party headquarters in Kyadondo, saying some are well-educated and can't be swayed by money, but have rather understood the NRM ideology. 📹Abubaker Lubowa #MonitorUpdates
Our Rusiina cow at the entrance of Mbarara City, our proud cultural symbol now stands with a broken horn.
We call upon city stakeholders, institutions & the public to join hands in restoring & rebeautifying our heritage. @Rkachebezi@MTWAUganda@CattleAnkole@wekesa_amos
@Winnie_Byanyima That’s what’s happens when those supposed to promote and identify themselves with their own culture, neglect it and promote foreign values like LBTQ.
To single out the Bachwezi, a deeply symbolic part of Ankole oral history and equate them with witchcraft is not only misleading but also intellectually lazy.
Why does your message seem to target the Banyankore specifically? By reducing the Bachwezi to witchcraft, you show a troubling bias against our heritage. Why is Ankole history always the one under attack? Do you hate the Banyankore, or is our culture just an easy target?
