Prime Minister, Amama Mbabazi, the politician who is considered by many Ugandans as number one enemy of former Uganda Vice President, Prof. Gilbert Bukenya has proved it otherwise.

Mbabazi shocked people in Kakiri town council yesterday when he told them that he and Bukenya are good friends and they are birds of the same feather. Mbabazi said that he rarely spends a day without talking to Bukenya or any of his family members.

The prime minister also told the people that he fought hard to have Bukenya out of prison when the former Vice President was jailed recently over mismanagement of CHOGM funds. Amama also thanked the people of Busiro north to vote Bukenya during the parliamentary by elections.

Amama also caused laughter when he denied that he was not part of the mafias Bukenya announced not so long ago that they were haunting him. When he stood up to address the people who went to the former Vice President’s home to welcome Mbabazi, Bukenya too said that he was a friend of Mbabazi.
