Dr. Stella Nyanzi has drawn sharp criticism online after mocking Bobi Wine’s unopposed re-election as president of the National Unity Platform. In a viral post, Nyanzi condemned Uganda’s political culture of recycling male leaders across parties, questioning when the country will see a woman leading any major political organization.
Medard Ssegona’s announcement that he will succeed Bobi Wine as NUP leader in 2030 has triggered outrage among supporters who believe the party and Bobi Wine are inseparable.
MP Muhammad Nsereko has lashed out at NUP lawmakers for their walkout during the UPDF Amendment Act session, accusing them of political hypocrisy. He questions their commitment to legislative duties while benefiting from state funding.
“I will not keep quiet anymore,” says Mathias Mpuuga, as he announces plans to sue Bobi Wine over defamation, accusing the NUP leader of betraying party foot soldiers for personal gain.
