The Director of Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) ms Jenifer Musisi Semakula is a member of the ruling National Resistance Movement as well as a civil servant. As you may know the political hatred in Uganda amongst political parties is high, no one would expect that Ms Musisi would sit in a corner with the leaders of opposition Democratic Party and talk business.

But this happened. The president of DP Norbert Mao, Legal Advisor Mukasa Denis Fred Mbidde and DP secretary general Mathias Nsubuga on Tuesday met with Ms Musisi and they discussed issues concerning reconciliation and development of Kampala.

The meeting took place at City Hall building inKampala. Top on the agenda was to forge a good working relationship between Musisi and Kampala Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago. Lukwago did not attend the meeting because he is out of the country on official assignment. Ms Musisi told the DP squad that she has no personal vendetta with Lukwago. She explained that it’s Lukwago who seems to have a personal hatred on her. Mbidde says that after they have got the side of Musisi, they will also summon Lukwago to give them his views and after they try to reconcile the rivalKampalaleaders.

Kidandala says that Ms Musisi is simply trying to please her master president Museveni who is also the appointment authority of her office.

Speaking to this journalists at City Hall inKampala, Kidandala said that Ms Musisi is also dancing to the tune of NRM councilors in the authority.

The Deputy Lord mayor also says that Ms Musisi is fighting him because she is a born again Christian and he is a Muslim. Kidandala said that his religion was dictated upon him at birth. He was born a Muslim.

Kidandala however suggests that what he has fought with Musisi is enough and it is high time the two explore reconciliatory approaches.  Story to be continued!
