The Nyendo-Mukungwe lawmaker, Hon Mathias Mpuuga, says shall not accept be told what to do by National Unity Platform’s political armatures, but instead, he will teach them.
“What I will not accept are learners to teach us what to do and we have given them time to listen, understand, and we shall teach them what to do if they want to understand and the good thing you all know that I don’t drink,” Mpuuga said.
Mpuuga made the statement on Saturday May 18, 2024 after the send-off of Pascal Ssekasamba, a younger brother of former Democratic Party Secretary General Mathias Nsubuga Birekeraawo, in Lwengo District.
The burial ceremony that was attended by NUP president, Robert Kyagulanyi and other NUP officials turned chaotic when the politicians verbally started undressing each other.
Mpuuga who was last month sacked by his boss Kyagulanyi from his position as the party’s deputy president for Buganda region when he pocketed the shs500 million as service award in Parliament as leader of opposition says he will soon declare his next political step.
He informed his supporters that the current hard times they are facing under the leadership of political armatures in NUP was ending soon.
“I want to assure you that this turbulence will not shake me and there is no one who brought us into this struggle and they should know that we’re the ones who taught them this game of politics,” Mpuuga says.
“If they’re accusing me of my knowledge, I will not apologise and the only problem with Kyagulanyi, he does not know what people talk in his back and is free to talk what he wants,” he added.
“Let know one divert you, and I am going to come to every village and parishes here in Masaka and will tell you the next step,” he said.
Mpuuga wonders how bad he is to experience accusations, questioning who brought him to Parliament.
“How bad is Mpuuga you are accusing? Are you the one who brought me to Parliament? Who is he working for? Any leader who despises his subjects is a bad leader – never allow such leaders to undermine others.”M
puuga accuses Kyagulanyi for undermining the Buganda Kingdom as he (Kyagulanyi) and his supporters resorted to abusing the kingdom prime minister, Charles Peter Mayiga which allegation Kyagulanyi vehemently denies.
“I always respect Mpuuga, and I have never mobilised anyone to hate him and abuse him, and I always tell you not to do it,” Kyagulanyi told mourners at the burial.
