Information from Kabaka Muwenda Mutebi’s palace at Bulange Mengo has it that prominent lawyer Peter Mayiga is planning to resign his post such that he concentrates on laying down strategies of replacing Bokoto central’s (Masaka) MP, Edward Kiwanuka Sekandi. Sekandi is also the Uganda’s Vice President.

The development has come because Jude Mbabali of DP, who used to contest against Sekandi recently announced that he was not going to contest against Sekandi anymore.

Mbabali recently withdrew an election petition against Sekandi something which angered opposition politicians not only Masaka but across the country. Many opposition politicians were heard publicly alleging that Mbabali was bribed to withdraw the case against Sekandi.

Mbabali however denied being bribed by Sekandi. Sekandi too rubbished claims that he bribed Mbabali to withdraw the case against him, instead reasoning that the constituency is to be divided into two soon, and him (Sekandi) will be from different parts (constituencies). But now here comes Mayiga to give more headache to Sekandi.
