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.

In politics every person is important. Makerere University councilor Bernard Luyiga is now full of smiles after the president general of the Democratic Party (DP) Norbert Mao appointed his party’s special envoy in charge of universities.

Luyiga formerly a member of DP made an alliance with NRM councilors at Kampala City Council in a bid to become the deputy Lord Mayor. His actions politically shifted him from DP to NRM, at least in the eyes of political analysts.

Luyiga even went ahead and acquired police body guards. The people who may have queries’ on this issue (of gun) should ask Kampala Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago. But Luyiga’s critics have been baffled after Mao appointed him the DP envoy in charge of Universities. Luyiga we hear has already accepted the appointment. Luyiga however denies reports that he crossed to NRM. He says it is only Lukwago’s questionable leadership in Kampala what makes him (Luyiga) to support NRM plots against Lukwago.

Lukyamuzi, who is also the MP for Lubaga South, adds that Museveni abused state funds through Corruption, nepotism, extravagancy, buying teargas and Fighter jets.

He says that Museveni’s ministers have defrauded the state. Some ministers in Museveni’s government such as Amama Mbabazi, Sam Kuteesa, Khiddu Makubuya and Syda Bbumba were recently asked to resign over corruption. And indeed some of the ministers have resigned.

Mao says that the queen advised Museveni to surround himself with intelligent people. Museveni reportedly informed the Queen that he has surrounded himself with professors, doctors among other intelligent persons and scholars.

The queen reportedly called her prime minister and asked him to answer the following riddle.

”Your mother and father have a child. It is not your brother and it is not your sister. Who is it?” the prime minister answered that that child is ‘me.’

Museveni reportedly returned to Uganda and asked the following question to his cabinet ministers but none of them laboured to answer the question. Mao alleges that Museveni reportedly went ahead to ask the same question to all his friends in NRM. The DP President says that if Museveni had asked the same question to DP members, none would fail to rightly answer him. So Mao asked Museveni to sack all his ministers, quit politics and let DP takeover power, causing laughter among DP members.

The secretary general of DP Matthias Nsubuga and the DP President General Norbert Mao have reportedly asked all MPs, LC3 chairpersons, LC5 chairpersons, and LC5 and LC3 councilors to contribute money to run the party on monthly basis.

Nsubuga says that DP will punish any of its members holding a political post who will not contribute 8% of his or her monthly allowances and salaries to the party head offices.

  However his pals in DP have told us that Mao is rich because he started working when he was too young. He was once an MP forGuluMunicipalitytwice, and the LC5 chairman of Gulu district once.

 During his term of office as chairperson and as MP, many whites consulted him many times on matters concerning the LRA war in northernUganda. This is where he got millions of money he saved and he is now using to buy expensive land inKampala. Mao says he is repairing his new house and when he finishes he plans to shift from Ntinda to Luzira.
