Kyagulanyi for his tremendous effort towards humanity .  

‘’ Our people have endured gross human rights violation right from when we became an independent nation in 1962 . As I stand here today political opposition has been brutalized as members of the  opposition are beaten , toured , arrested on trumped up charges and many disappear to never seen again ‘’ Hon. Kyagulanyi Said in his acceptance speech .

‘’Thousands of  young people continue to rot  in jail and others , and many people live in exile here in the  United States of America’’ the people power leader added.

Kyandondo East MP Robert Kyagulanyi‘s wife, Barbie Kyagulanyi Ithungo, is no ordinary woman that your Mama told you about during babyhood.

Bobi Wine’s wife managed to put Uganda fashion entrepreneur, Sylvia Owori to her rightful level during a social media exchange that the designer had declared.

Barbie Kyagulanyi’s presence at the Kampala Geopolitics Conference at Makerere University on Monday could have left the fashion designer some what disappointed.

In Owori’s opinion, Barbie was not a suitable to sit among influential figures like the American Ambassador, Malac Deborah, Dr. Maggie Kigozi, French Ambassador, Stephanie Rivoal, Kasese Woman MP, Winnie Kiiza and Sarah Sali, the Dean school of women and gender studies Makerere University.

She believed, Mrs. Kyagulanyi was some what hyped to a level that less befits a person of her caliber. The fashion icon took to her Facebook to give ‘a piece of advice’ to future organisers on how best to choose guest speakers.

she wrote

“Kyagulanyi Barbie Itungo I am a little confused here. Are you one of the most powerful inspirational women in Uganda??? There are over 1000 women who should have rightfully been on that panel discussing Women issues. Let us not mix politics with meritocracy.”

See what Barbie replied

Sylvia Owori, am I one of the most powerful inspirational women in Uganda? OH YES I AM ONE OF THE MOST INSPIRATIONAL WOMEN UGANDA HAS EVER HAD and you are an inspiration too Mama. I hope they invite you next time because I know you would fit on this panel just like a Million other Inspirational women out here,” Barbie sarcastically replied.

Many of Barbie Kyagulanyi’s fans slammed Owori for meddling in businesses that does not concern her and also seeking media attention.

“Jealous Has Always Been The Mother Of Envy…People Like Sylvia Owori Are Always Envious Of What They Cannot Do!”Mark Mukiibi Farouk said

Patricia Ssewungu said “Questioning Barbie’s presence on the panel is like telling the organisers that they didn’t know who they needed. That is both rude & ignorant of you Miss Owori. A host has a right to choose his or her guest- basic etiquette. Don’t mix politics as well as meritocracy with the study of the effects of geography on politics and international relations (Geopolitics). Presently, she has the “global” following to have an effect on women’s lives.
If Mrs Barbara Itungo was invited by the French embassy, then they saw her befitting to be part of the panel.”

Kyaddondo East Member of Parliament Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu popularly known as Bobi Wine has called off the plan by his supporters to boycott the upcoming Cranes match against Cape Verde.

Bobi Wine went on his Facebook page on Monday to refute the use of hashtag #boycottugandacranes that started when his concert named Kyarenga concert was left in balance.

I have seen some friends act out of anger as a result of the Kyarenga concert cancellation by the Namboole management. Friends, I don’t agree with the trending hashtag #boycottugandacranes. Uganda Cranes is our national team in which we should always take pride and support with all our abilities,” the legislator wrote.

Our national team is the mirror of the best and worst in us as a nation so all they need is Love and understanding, not condemnation. We are all Uganda Cranes and Uganda Cranes is us,” he added.

The concert which was originally scheduled to take place on October 20 at Mandela National Stadium, Namboole was then shifted to November 9 with claims of the stadium being booked by a wedding.

Bobi Wine Kyarenga Concert

Earlier in a statement, Police  had asked Kyagulanyi to cancel the concert since it’s not on the calendar of events Namboole Management submitted to them.

However, there were no sign of a wedding Mandela National Stadium as management had claimed on October 20.

Mr Jamil Ssewanyana received a document from FUFA with concerns that the stadium will not be up to the CAF standard if it was to host Bobi Wines’ show. The show remained in balance.

It has come to the Federations notice that Mandela Stadium management has entered into an agreement to have a public event take place on November 9, 2018 within the stadium. In our opinion, any public event within the International football match period put the Stadium into an unacceptable standard to detriment CAF docking off points from the Uganda Cranes for the upcoming,” FUFA Chief Executive Officer Edgar Watson Suubi  wrote.

All these annoyed Bobi Wine supporters who then started a move to boycott the next upcoming Uganda Cranes match against Cape Verde.

In a statement, Police asked Kyagulanyi to cancel the concert since it’s not on the calendar of events Namboole Management submitted to them.

It further states that Bobi Wine and his team have not made any arrangements with the staff of Namboole and therefore no music show should be hosted on that 20th October 2018.

The management of Namboole National Stadium has availed us with a matrix of events they plan to host from September 2018 to January 2019 but does not include the above music show (Kyarenga Album launch). You are, therefore, advised to call off the music show since you have not made any arrangements with management of Mandela National Stadium to host the music show on October 20, 2018”, the head of the Police Operations Directorate, Mr Asuman Mugyenyi replied to the director Emma Promotionz and marketing agency, Mr Emma Serugo on behalf of Inspector General of Police.

Bobi Wine commented on the actions of the Police calling them dishonesty having failed to give a clear guide even when the legislator tried to make several calls to the Inspector General of Police.

Kyandondo East Mp and Uganda’s leading opposition legislator, Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine has called Kanye West meeting with president Yoweri Museveni immoral.

On Monday,president Museveni posted photos of him exchanging gifts with the US rapper and wife Kim Kardashian at state house. Bobi Wine said it was immoral of West to  “just to rub shoulders with the president”.

“He is hobnobbing with a president w-ho has been in power now for 32 years and restricts any freedom, a country where opposition activists are tortured and imprisoned,

“It would have been great if he had used his voice for the good of people in Africa,” said Wine, whose real name is Robert Kyagulanyi. “I’m a musician but I am not allowed to stage a show in my own country because I disagree with the president. It is very disappointing.” Kyagulanyi stated.

Museveni received a pair of signature Yeezy Boost trainers while the president gifted West with a signed copy of his book, Sowing the Mustard Seed: The Struggle for Freedom and Democracy in Uganda.

Mr. Museveni showed his gratitude towards the rappers visit and remarked that they both enjoyed “fruitful discussions” about promoting tourism and arts.

In his comment about US president Donald Trump attitude towards Africa, the Ugandan president said “I love Trump because he tells the Africans frankly … the Africans need to solve their problems, they need to be strong. It is the fault of the Africans that they are weak”

West is in Uganda with his wife, the reality TV star Kim Kardashian West, to shoot a video in a game park where the rapper is recording his ninth album in a purpose-built tent.

Excited West published a post on social media detailing the inspirations from his Africa tour so far especially from Fela Kuti, the popular Nigerian musician, composer and activist who died in 1997.

“The music is the best on the planet. I am the best living recording artist. We, rather, because the spirits flow through me. The spirit of Fela, the spirit of [Bob] Marley, the spirit of [Tu]Pac [Shakur] flows through me,” West said.

However, muscian Seun Kuti, son of Fela Kuti in response to Kanye posted “On behalf of the Kuti family, I want to state that the spirit of Olufela Anikulapo Kuti isn’t anywhere near Kanye West,” he said.
