“Following the absence of the Leader of Opposition in Parliament Hon. Joel Ssenyonyi in the Parliamentary sitting in Gulu this morning, Dr. Abed Bwanika has offered to represent him!”Article 82A:1 clearly says there shall be a Leader of Opposition in Parliament (LoP)” (..) “In the absence of the LoP, Dr. Bwanika is able, willing and ready. I’m MP for Kimanya Kabonera Masaka City and I’m a member of the National Unity Platform” Bwanika said” (IT Media, 28.08.2024).
Someone needs to take a chill-pill and await their turn. This isn’t the moment to shine or be the one requested. Dr. Abed Bwanika MP is just a sign of failure and lack of substance. He couldn’t lead his own party, but could find a meal-ticket under the banner of the National Unity Platform (NUP).
Bwanika wouldn’t be in Parliament without the red wave and the rising popularity of the NUP. The People Power Movement and the political rise of Bobi Wine. That’s what has given Abed Bwanika a chance to get to Parliament. His there in behalf and his lucky stars that they let him into their big-tent. That’s how he entered and was able to gain enough notoriety to become an MP.
Bwanika MP isn’t a leader, neither is a true opposition either. A man who defies his own party and has fought it for personal gains. A man who has fought the party on behalf of Mpuuga MP. That’s who Bwanika MP is, and it shows.
His not following party line or the ideals of the party. He is more busy eating and living large on the public’s dime. That’s why his not boycotting it and staying away from the plenary session today in Gulu. His there to show validation and be part of the charade. That’s why his there.
Also, while his at it… he should just go independent and leave the NUP. Heck, he should probably become Yellow and be part of the brigade. Because there is little to no difference between him and them. He just used the opposition party banner to get elected. That’s what he did and it shows…
Dr. Abed Bwanika MP is a disappointment of a representative. He should know better, but he doesn’t, and it shows. The lack of tact and concern, neither lack of loyalty nor following party lines shows too. He just disregards anything that isn’t personally benefiting him. If it can benefit him. He jumps on board, and if it doesn’t… then he is nowhere to be seen. A mere shadow of what man he could have been, but that’s too much to ask. Peace.
