President Museveni might have used his powers to direct his minister for energy to sign an oil deal with Tullow Oil without the support of the people he rules, but the wrath of Ugandans keeps on growing every day. The members of the Democratic Party, the oldest opposition party in Uganda have vowed to petition European Union Parliament asking it to investigate the deal oil companies, Tullow Oil and Total signed with Uganda. The party has also threatened to mobilize its supporters to stage demonstrations in case diplomacy fails.

The son to president Museveni, Col. Muhoozi Kainerugaba was the guest of honour at the party that was organised by Kampala Kindergarten in Nakasero when the school was celebrating its 60 year anniversary this week. 

Muhoozi after giving his key note speech donated five million shillings to be used to construct the new school block. In total 25 million shillings were contributed by all the guests and parents who attended the party.

However the money the son to the head of state contributed has sparked controversy among opposition members. The president of the Democratic Party, Norbert Mao asked Muhoozi to come out and tell the citizens whether it was not from bribe some of the government officials reportedly got recently from oil deal.

Ibrahim Kasozi, the FDC Youth chairperson inBugandasays that this could be a ploy by statehouse to start portraying Muhoozi as man who cares to improve the country’s education such that in future he contests for president.
