Kampala former Mayor, Hajji Nasser Sebaggala has revealed that president Museveni used him to fight DP promising to make him great in the country’s politics.

In a shocking revelation to his supporters on Saturday at his Bugolobi home, Sebaggala said he was not happy with president Museveni. “He used me to fight DP and later wooed me out of DP promising to make me a minister but instead used parliament to block my appointment,” one of his supporters who attended the meeting quoted him as saying.

Sebaggala has started saying that president Museveni is a traitor. He says that the president can give you something with the right hand and takes it away with the left hand. Sebaggala likens Museveni with the former DP President John Sebaana Kizito.
