Ugandan politician and poet, Dr. Stella Nyanzi has once again punched holes in Bobi Wine’s leadership in his National Unity Platform (NUP) party.
Her reaction was triggered by the current dramatic situation where NUP founding member, Moses Kibalama decided to claim full party ownership.
This week, Kibalama’s faction opened a parallel office in Kabowa city suburbs in Rubaga division. The group further warned the Kamwokya-based NUP leadership under Bobi Wine, real names Robert Kyagulanyi to desist from using NUP party symbols, colors, stamps, and other materials.
In four short verses, the former Makerere research fellow has described Bobi Wine’s NUP as fraudsters, and the other group as stooges. She has summarized the NUP ownership battle as a fight between masqueraders and crooks!
She insists both sides are dealers anyway.
Here below in Nyanzi’s poem;
