West Budama South County member of Parliament Jacob Oboth Oboth, has been elected as the Speaker of the 12th parliament after polling 441 votes beating his closet opponent Paul Mwiru who got 60 votes. Nobert Mao came in the third position with 15 votes. 3 Votes were spoilt.
After swearing in as MP of the 12th Parliament, I handed over the official vehicles, security detail, and office keys of the Leader of the Opposition to the Director-LOP’s Office to forward the same to the Clerk’s Office.
This marks the end of my tenure as Leader of the Opposition of the 11th Parliament.
"I have talked to Hon. Hamson Obua and the Chairpersons of the relevant Parliamentary Committees to make the Bill concentrate on the Sovereignty of policy-decision-making and not to meander in the areas of the freedom of Private enterprise transfers or private money transfers or church donations."- @KagutaMuseveni

Integrity isn’t proven when no offer exists. It’s revealed when the door to the table is open, only if you bend your values to enter. Yes, you feel the pull, but still choose to stay outside the door because your values are worth more than the seat at the table.
STOP IMPUNITY, STAY IN YOUR LANE!
Driver of the Ford pickup UA 065BQ made a U-Turn on Buganda Road and drove in the opposite direction in total disregard of the one way road regulations and safety of other road users.
This type of reckless behavior is more associated with rogues driving around, mostly in government registered vehicles and those numberless SUVs. They have little regard of safety.
Dear @sylmulinge, if this is one of your team members @mtnug, you may need to send them for a quick course on road etiquette, or if you donated this vehicle, then they should scrape off the branding. Otherwise, as KCCA cleans the streets, we expect your team to model responsibility and champion safety.
Together we can make a difference, make our roads safe and save lives.
Thank you.

Was I being too harsh or misguided in saying that we are myopic?
Do we have a culture and/or identity as a people?
If we do what would you say it is...?

“The effort of the Appellant through
this petition is an audacious attempt to SNEAK to Parliament to represent a group of people whose mandate he has not obtained.
I agree with counsel for the Respondents that the "Nakawa West" Constituency and " Nakawa Division West Constituency" are one and the same but often used interchangeably.”
Tension is once again gripping Uganda’s political landscape after National Unity Platform (NUP) presidential candidate Robert Kyagulanyi, popularly known as Bobi Wine, was blocked from campaigning in Moroto District yesterday. His campaign trail was abruptly halted at Amudat Trading Centre, where heavily armed police and military forces mounted a roadblock, effectively shutting down his planned activities.
With just eight days left to the election, the unfolding events feel eerily familiar. One could easily mistake the scenes for a replay of the last election cycle—marked by brutal crackdowns, calculated sabotage, roadblocks, teargas, violent beatings, and even killings. Despite the passage of time, the script appears unchanged, as Bobi Wine continues to face relentless obstruction while President Yoweri Museveni conducts a largely violence-free campaign.
During the previous election, at the height of similar repression, Bobi Wine sat down with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour in a powerful interview where he explained why, despite the danger to his life and supporters, he refused to retreat from the struggle. Today, history is repeating itself. Once again, he presses forward, undeterred by intimidation and force, choosing resistance over silence.
Below is that interview—followed by my commentary on a campaign that continues to be defined by courage, confrontation, and controversy.
