“I will give Rebecca Kadaga a position when I become President because I respect her and she is my aunt” – Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine in Kamuli district on the 6th December 2020
This here shouldn’t be a thing. I don’t know of Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine had moment of clarity or an epiphany in Kamuli district. As most famous and lingered Member of Parliament is Rebecca Kadaga.
Kadaga has been the Woman MP for Kamuli since 1989. She has resided in Parliament over the years and is contesting for another term this time around. Kadaga has been the Speaker of the Parliament in two terms too. Also served in various ministries before too. So, this woman is loyal to the bone and the objectives of Museveni.
So with the knowledge of her character and loyalty to Museveni. Why do want a person like that to serve your administration?
Bobi Wine you should select people who wasn’t associated with the folks your trying to topple. You are removing a dictator. However, it is not enough to get rid of the head of state. Bobi Wine, you need to revise the system and uproot it. Yes, that will cost, but if you want change from the current status quo. Then your appointing or giving plum-jobs to cronies of the regime.
This is a bad decision and not a wise statement. Kadaga might be educated, experienced and have proven herself. Still, if she wasn’t a Yes-Men and a Crony. She wouldn’t ride the helicopter and get all the perks of being a part of regime of today.
How can Bobi Wine trust her?
That is what I don’t get. Maybe I am built as a different breed and thinking the ones who helped the previous regime. Will not be good to rebuild and develop the Republic. Because, the had no issues with the personification and total control to one man. The lack of transparency and accountability of the current regime. That those persons are suddenly changing? I’m not buying that. They had the time and the ability, but chose to be loyal to one man. The one man Bobi Wine is working to get rid off.
So, why pick one of his henchmen and loyal cadres? Like Kadaga is willing when she is earning all her points and wealth through serving Museveni. Why should she bounce and change ship? She wouldn’t switch that safety over something uncertain. No, that is not happening.
Neither is this a good look for Bobi Wine. It might sound wise and smart to tell the crowds of Kamuli. However, the implications are not anything substantial. It is not consistent with his message.
If you want to get rid of a dictator, you should not hang on to his henchmen and his allies. No, these will not rock the boat and will investigate into the wrongs done by the previous regime. They will continue the same-old and only change titles.
Kadaga will not bring change…. That’s not happening. Bobi Wine should rescind this… and rethink this. It is not looking smart. This is not the winning formula, but hoping for the “stomach-politicians” to take the bait. Peace.
