PLU’s Mawanda and Kabanda- the hypocrisy of corruption crusaders

KAMPALA. In a display of political hypocrisy and self-inflicted embarrassment, Kasambya MP David Kabanda, the self-proclaimed Secretary General of the Patriotic League of Uganda (PLU), alongside his peg boy, Igara East MP Michael Mawanda, suffered a humiliating blow as their so-called anti-corruption demonstration against Parliament flopped miserably on Monday.

The protest, ostensibly aimed at condemning corruption in Parliament, quickly unraveled when the public scrutinized the integrity—or lack thereof—of its organizers.

You see his open mindedness has earned him both love and hate among the opposition and his PLU camp,” one of his fans told the Daily Secrets. Gashumba is the Patriotic League of Uganda (PLU) vice chairman for central region.  Sources close to some people close to top Uganda Peoples Defense Forces generals who had thought they would take the mantle after President Yoweri Museveni are reportedly discomfortable with the way Gashumba has marketed a rather hitherto unpopular Gen Muhoozi […]

Western region ministers on spot for ‘hating’ Muhoozi

KAMPALA: A team of top investigators have been dispatched by Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba's Patriotic League Uganda (PLU) has been dispatched to investigate various ministers who hail from the west for shunning the first son's mobilisation tours. Inside sources reveal that two teams have emerged in cabinet, with one supporting MK while others are secretly avoiding him and distancing themselves from the General's activities. Sources further revealed that apart from Gen Kahinda Otafiire, Ministers David Bahati, Henry Musaasizi, Francis Mwebesa, Chris Baryomunsi, Raphael Magyezi, Jim Muhwezi and Tom Butiime are some of the key ministers who have refused to back the young General.
