DP seems to benefit first in EALA after one of its leaders, Mukasa Fred Mbidde got a place in EALA house, and they have easily moved in to form an alliance with CHADEMA, Tanzania’s leading opposition party which has 50% of MPs in Tanzanian parliament.

Our informers in Arusha tell us that there were secret meetings the whole of last week between the DP president, Norbert Mao and the CHADEMA’s leadership in Arusha to form strategies for power takeover in the coming elections in both countries that is Uganda and Tanzania.

It is believed that CHADEMA is the wealthiest opposition party in East Africa with its president general having over 10 planes of his own. Therefore we are told that DP seems to benefit from this alliance more.

Suspected hackers reportedly based in US have again pulled down Uganda statehouse website. This is not the first time hackers misuse Uganda government websites.

Recently they posted a picture of FDC leader Kizza Besigye seated on a stool in a rather pensive mood on the website of the ministry of works. And no so long ago the suspected hackers post a picture of Adolf Hitler on the statehouse website www.statehouse.go.ug.

A source at statehouse told one of our reporters on Wednesday that the hackers destroyed the system of state house website and it needs repair. When we loaded the statehouse website we found there the following information.

“The State House Uganda website is currently under construction. The website will be launched soon. Thank you.”

The Uganda government intelligence network has been following up suspected international hackers who collude with Ugandans to destroy government websites. Recently the hackers superimposed on the website of the works ministry the following message: “Welcome to Ministry of Hackers and Jobless Ugandans Republic of Uganda.”

The argument is that if someone like president Museveni is still alive and the people still like him, the country should not be denied the opportunity to benefit from his “visionary” leadership just because the person is above 75 years!

 Some MPs argue that they want the clause deleted in order to allow people aged above 75 years to get an opportunity to ruleUganda. This campaign is being spearheaded by some NRM MPs fromBuganda. However few vocal opposition MPs in the house shout in disapproval, saying that the move will give Museveni a chance to ruleUgandafor life.

The debate follows an argument in parliament that NRM and president Museveni won last year’s elections overwhelmingly with 85% of the total votes cast (but with only 30% voter turn out).
As if this debate is not enough, there is a heated campaign in parliament about the age limit clause in the National constitution of Uganda.

Two political leaders, Michael Mabikke and Dr. Abed Bwanika have opposed the MPs move to impeach President Museveni.

The MPs’ proposal to impeach Museveni is being driven by MP Odonga Otto (Aruu) and Ken John Lukyamuzi of Lubaga South. Abed Bwanika and Mabikke say that the MPs who plan to impeach Museveni are in day dreams since NRM has majority MPs in the house.

Mabikke says that opposition members have no capacity to impeach Museveni since they have few numbers in the house. Mabikke says that the MPs should concentrate on developmental issues than dreaming to impeach Museveni.

MPs Lukyamuzi and Otto want to impeach Museveni over allegations of causing financial lose to the government in the compensation saga to businessman Hassan Basajjabalaba and purchase of fighter jets. Mabikke is the president General of the Social Democratic Party while Bwanika is the president of the Peoples’ Developmental Party.

Shock and grief befell on people of Kampala on Friday morning when a woman jumped from the 14th floor of Workers House building and died.

The woman was identified as Justine Nalugya, a resident of Kampala district. The relatives to the deceased said that Nalugya was so stressed because she had a degree from Makerere University but she had not been employed for the last three years. Rose Nambi, a relative to the deceased told the people who had gathered at the scene of suicide that Nalugya walked to Workers House this morning expecting to get a job.

“She told us that a certain friend of hers called Peter had promised to connect her to a job today Friday. She had even mobilized funds from us to bribe the employer for the job. It seems when she reached there she discovered that Peter had conned her and she decided to end her life,” she hopes.

The deceased was dressed in a black skirt and a yellow blouse. She first folded her skirt and threw her bag down before jumping to her death. The police are hunting for a man identified as Peter to help it with its investigations. The problem is that there are 18 men at Workers House with a name Peter. So the police have found it hard to establish which Peter the deceased had gone to see. The police have taken Nalugya’s body to Mulago hospital.

Scenes of jubilation and joy played out as hundreds of Makerere University students poured onto the Democratic Party headquarters to celebrate Democratic Party (DP) candidate Ivan Kata’s victory in the Guild Presidential elections.

The students paralysed business and blocked business at city house as they descended from the university through william street.

Kata won the race with 4,932 votes. He was followed by FDC’s John Paul Rubagumya who obtained 1, 974 votes.

NRM candidate, Joshua Nahurira, came third with 1, 752.

Kata Ivan is a second year student of Biomedical Radiography Sciences,

Holding tree branches and Kata’s posters, the students, who were also chanting DP slogan “DP egumire” (DP is strong) had earlier on decorated the party headquarters with green cloths, baloons and they had also mounted a music public address system at city house. The party is said to have been funded solely by Fred Mukasa Mbidde through Mugerwa Robert aka “Park Nkadde”.

In his speech to the media, the Guild President -Elect thanked Councilor Bernard Luyiga and Fred Mukasa Mbidde for the financial boost they accorded him. He was also very appreciative to Norbert Mao’s Assistant Elvis Kintu who took him through the speech induction. He said he would not be appealing to electorates especially ladies if Mr. Kintu Elvis had not inducted him to use slogans like political tedy bear, political pillow and political valu valu. He also thanked the Chairman task force Muwulya Farouk, Winston Nsibirwa and UYD Chairperson Makerere University.

He promised to copy a leaf from former Mak Guild Presidents like Hon. Norbert Mao (1990) and Mukasa Mbidde(2001). He said Makerere has problems ranging from the character of the vice chancellor to sanitation.

After the press conference, a cake was cut in the presence of Party President Norbert Mao and Secretary General Mathias Nsubuga. Kata called on Journalists to move together with him and his journey started by him cutting the cake which they enjoyed together with sodas.

This is surely some good news for supporters of MP Brenda Nabukenya. The rumour we have got now is that she could be two months pregnant.

Nabukenya won the recent Luweero district woman MP by election polls. Her close pals in DP rumored to us that she could be pregnant and the man responsible if it is true she is pregnant is not yet known to the press.

We are not confirming that the legislator is pregnant. But it is only rumoured that she could be pregnant. DP insiders tell us that if it is true the legislator is pregnant, the man responsible could be one of the vibrant and loaded men in the Democratic Party.

Some of the vibrant and loaded men in the democratic Party include Deputy Lord Mayor, Sulaiman Kidandala, DP Legal advisor and Mukasa Mbidde. Our investigation team is going on to investigate whether really the MP is pregnant. Remember Brenda is not yet blessed with a baby.

I will personally prosecute them with evidence for using NRM contacts and support to destabilize the progress of DP. They have been given lawyers Akampurira and company advocates and Enos Tumusiime of Kampala Associates all paid for by the NRM treasury through MP Singh Katongole.

They also go through two NRM persons I will name before the committee. There is one general of UPDF and one top police officer. The contacts points are at State House are already with me and I have copies of their signs at the visitors’ book of statehouse all which I will lay before the DP disciplinary committee to take action.
