Political turmoil in Uganda since 2021 general elections

Posted on

In early 2020 towards the 2021 General Elections, in a closed door CEC meeting,  the then Deputy Secretary General submitted a poisonous narrative against the then Secretary General Lumumba how she was unilaterally running the Party without involving other colleagues,  describing her as one who had turned herself into the NT, DSG,DAF,Mobilization Director, EC Chair among others.

He further accused her of amassing a lot of wealth, buying endless handbags, flowers and employing hundreds of handlers to carry for her lipstick in the said handbags.

President Museveni listening to this known two-faced “cadre”, he thought he would make a perfect replacement of Lumumba.

In 2021 June after the General Elections,  Lumumba was dropped and Todwong named Secretary General but truth be told this replacement was simply a master class student in the predecessors classroom. He had mastered the art of amassing wealth and where Lumumba stopped is where he started and skyrocketed.

As Lumumba was faulted for buying so many flowers, good Lord, they were cheap and affordable but Todwong has an addiction to State of the Art cars.

It’s said that his home in Muyenga Bukasa which he acquired in the names of his fourth wife Ann Ruyondo can pass for a commercial car Bond.

Those working in this compound find alot of difficulty moving around this compound or entering the house as you have to squeeze through uncountable paraded  Landcruisers 7-series, GR Sport double cabins and snow white G-Wagon Benz Brabuses.

A month ago, Todwong bought another brand new G-WAGON as a congratulatory gift to his Fourth wife Ann upon winning the heavily financed National Women Council seat a thing that left other women voters responsible for that success disgruntled because the money they were given couldn’t fetch each one of them even a Vitz.

It was interesting to learn that Lumumba Kasule at her handover to Todwong was only allowed to leave with one car as it was presumed that the new SG would need the second car that had been allocated to her for his work in the new office.

However Todwong with the help of their Secretariat sole motor vehicle supplier-SUMABOLT sold the car in less than a week and put the money to his personal use. This SUMABOLT-Motorvehile company is also remembered to have featured in the Trade Ministry controversy of supplying Government with used cars other than the recommended brand new cars.

We have for many years watched a clip of Todwong talking of Greed, Nepotism, Corruption and the Expanding Hills of Kampala with Mega constructions warning his involved party members of the possible repercussions if they don’t refrain from such.

Todwong was simply asking for an invitation to the table – he had simply picked “seemingly positive lessons” from those he was cautioning and badly wanted his turn to play.

Todwong has erected a gigantic multi billion boutique hotel at Akright with all interior and external fittings plus furnishings imported from France and United Kingdom- he is rumored to be very impatient by nature and that he paid the Freight dues from France tripple just to have other importers containers pushed forward and his priotised.

True it is that a man’s character is best judged when he has access to money.

After holding a lavish wedding ceremony in Kazo district for his Fourth wife Ruyondo Ann, he gifted his mother and father inlaw his “usual” two brand new cars and also bought his brother inlaw a residential mansion worth 2.8Bn at Bulwadda Estate-Kigo, pictures to be shared in our next extract.

Muyenga Kassanga, Bukasa and Kisugu have all suffered  the wrath of his billions as colleagues to his lawyers sent us into shock while disclosing that they suspended all other court cases and concentrated on drafting property sale agreements, Trusts for the purchase of properties in children and wives’ names.

He bought anything that was up for grabs from the old money chaps( pentioners) of Muyenga.

The former Secretary General is said to have a residential home in Seeta and a shopping complex in Kireka but her student has turned out to be exceedingly better than the teacher.

Who owns Muyenga-is now answered.

One social media blogger called True leader while on his page spoke about the NRM staff that were laid off.

This Secretary General just didn’t have an opportunity(mandate) to practice Nepotism at the time he was castigating it but during the staff validation exercise that resulted into the lay-off, the Appointments committee responsible for the process discovered that his office is the most bloated with redundant staff and most intriguing was his  relative working in his office as cleaner,  a primary six drop out, on the pay roll earning two million shillings while other senior staff members earning seven hundred thousand.

Whoever is interested in looking at this payroll carrying this absurd salary disparity influenced by Nepotism then don’t miss our next extract.

With all this unfolding,  what was President Musevenis’ take home from this new looter?

Looking at the performance of the NRM in his own district Nwoya, all the NRM party flagbearers lost miserably to the genius Norbert Maos’ Democratic Party apart from his biological sister whom he forced the returning officer to declare as Victor at gunpoint.

The man has concentrated on his insatiable greed, Nepotism and corruption tendencies at the expense of the Party and his District-Nwoya.

Is it the mega animal farm that has left his elder brother that started working with this Government even before Todwong left school in owe, the numerous structures he now owns in Gulu or his Secretariate money trade dealings through the money lenders and banks.
