Hon Ibrahim Kyoto Mululi the Member of Parliament (MP) representing Budiope West in the eastern district of Buyende district has been dragged to the police by his political opponent John Bosco Mubiito on the matter relating to violence and cyber crimes.
According to our sources, Mubiito wants justice and protection.
He dragged Hon Kyoto to the Criminal Intelligence and Investigations Directorate (CIID) in Kibuli after the latter sent a threatening WhatsApp message to the former on the mid-morning of 27th May 2023.
The Eye Media has established that the case is registred under Ref No GEF170/2023.
“He first sent me videos of his wife. Then he sent me a message accusing me of trying to poison him using his wife. After the accusation, Kyoto, who is the current MP of Budiope West, said he is coming for me and that I should be ready,” Mubiito told police on Monday.
According to screenshots seen by this website, Kyoto is convinced that Mubiito plotted to kill him by using his yet-to-be-identified wife.
It is clear that the two politicians are this time fighting over a woman they could have ever shared.
We have have managed to obtain a video in which the woman causing trouble between politicians recorded herself dancing to love lyrics. Kyoto allegedly sent the video clip to Mubiito to confirm to him that he (Kyoto) now owns the her.
In the whatsapp messages alleged to have been sent to Mubiito by Kyoto, the latter accuses the former of trying to use that same woman to poison him.
“Do you remember the samples you gave her to poison me?” Kyoto asks Mubiito. Adding: “[Un]fortunately, I am still alive. Coming for you! Be ready,” Kyoto writes to Mubiito.
As a response to the harassment, Mubiito advised Kyoto to go for mental checkups but the latter only wrote ‘thanks’ to Mubiito’s medical advisory.
“You have failed to serve the people. You have failed to do what people voted you for. You are actually a disgrace to our constituency. So carry your shame quietly. Don’t start unnecessary wars,” Mubiito wrote to Kyoto.
On seeing that Mubiito had cornered him, Kyoto switches to vulgarity, accusing Mubiito of sleeping with his (Kyoto’s) wife. He said to Mubiito: “Da day you f**ked her is d day u lost yo whole self” Mubiito responded: “Be civilized my brother. The only war I want with you is on the ballot.” responded Mubiito before blocking Kyoto.
The screen shots have been tendered in by Mubiito as evidence to the team of CIID investigators handling the matter.
Mubiito said the conversation left him fearing for his life.
Kyoto and Mubiito enjoy a torrid relationship.
Mubiito accuses Kyoto of performing heinous electoral malpractices like beating his opponents, paying off electoral officials, intimidating his supporters and voting to steal.
Efforts by The Eye Media to get a comment from Hon Kyoto were futile. Our repeated phone calls were unanswered nor did he respond to our whatsapp messages.
