With deep sorrow & heavy hearts,we extend our heartfelt condolences to Mrs.Edith Katende on the painful loss she has endured during such a difficult and unjust time. As the beloved wife of our brother and comrade, Alex Mufumbiro, your suffering has been profound,

Many said he had miscalculated by ordering Mpuuga to return the 500m & apologise to the nation. Many criticised him for not covering up for his own. At such a great personal/political risk, H.E. Bobi Wine took a clear stand against the corruption in Parliament! Kudos @HEBobiwine

This morning, our top leadership interfaced with the 12th parliamentary caucus and had constructive engagements concerning our alternative vision. As the NUP, we believe that the parliament needs to regain its autonomy, which is not the case at the moment. There is no way a serving army officer should engage in partisan politics and endorse individuals to occupy parliamentary leadership. This alone depicts that we shall not have an independent parliament. In a quest to try to restore the image and functionality of parliament as envisaged in the constitution, we have fielded the Jinja South East MP Hon. Paul Mwiru as our official candidate for speakership of the 12th parliament. We shall engage like minded political parties to nominate the Deputy Speaker so that we have a joint-opposition voice in our struggle to rescue parliament from the prevailing captivity guised as a fight against corruption. #FreeUgandaNow

10 REASONS WHY THE 500 MILLION SHILLINGS TO HON. MATHIAS MPUUGA WAS AN ACT OF CORRUPTION AND ABUSE OF OFFICE Facts: On 6th May, 2022 there was a meeting of the Parliamentary Commission attended by Ms. Anitah Among, Hon. Mpuuga and the three NRM Commissioners of Parliament. This was two months after Hon. Zaake was illegally removed from that position. In that meeting, these leaders awarded themselves a collective amount of 1.7 billion shillings. Hon. Mpuuga was allocated 500 million shillings, while the three others were each awarded 400 million shillings. It was not until the minutes of the Parliamentary Commission were 'leaked' to the public almost two years later, that we all got to know about this. Upon return to the country, I convened an urgent meeting of senior leaders of the Party who included all Deputy Presidents, the Secretary General and Deputy Secretary General, the current Leader of the Opposition, the National Treasurer, Hon. Muwanga Kivumbi and Hon. Betty Nambooze. (Also invited was Hon. Medard Sseggona, who unfortunately was not able to attend.) In the presence of these leaders, Hon. Mpuuga admitted that the leaked minutes were genuine. He admitted that it was wrong and immoral and apologized for the same. He regretted his actions and categorically stated that in hindsight, he should never have involved himself in such. He was strongly advised to step down from the Commission in public interest because that is what leaders do. He requested for some time to consult with and prepare his family and other stakeholders, which we agreed to, because it was only fair. When the one day agreed upon passed and following several reminders, we decided to issue a public statement on the matter because it is indeed a public matter for which the people of Uganda expected answers. It is their money we are talking about! Before that, I personally kept in touch with him and implored him to do the moral thing, in order to save his image and that of the Party. Unfortunately, following our public statement, Hon. Mpuuga has now released a statement apparently moving away from his earlier position and apology. His statement does not address the real issue of the 500 Million Shillings, and instead indirectly tries to justify this extreme act of immorality and corruption. I have noted that some people do not have the full context of this matter, hence the need for this clarification. Here are 10 reasons why this money-heist was illegal, immoral and wrong- and totally unexpected from a person we delegated to represent our values in Parliament, and lead the charge against corruption and misuse of public resources. 1. As all former Leaders of the Opposition have confirmed, none of them ever received a 'Service Award'. What was special about the service of Hon. Mpuuga to warrant a Service Award that was never given to his predecessors? Secondly, even if Hon. Mpuuga and the three NRM Parliamentary Commissioners had done anything exceptional, would it be up to them to sit and award themselves for a job well done? I mean, it defeats basic logic for anyone to say they are awarding themselves- moreover with hundreds of millions of tax payers' money. Does that mean that every public servant should now sit in his office and allocate some money to themselves for feeling good about themselves and the work they do? 2. In the widely shared minutes of the Parliamentary Commission, it was clearly indicated that the said money was 'person to holder'- meaning that it would not extend to any of the former or subsequent Leaders of the Opposition. They would be the first and last to receive this money. In our meeting with Hon. Mpuuga, he stated that the reasoning here was that every incoming LOP should negotiate his or her own 'Service Award'. Really? We asked, "What if the next LOP negotiates for 10 billion shillings of tax payers' money as his or her Service Award? How would we explain this?"

📌📌 It’s the cheers of the Wanaichi (ordinary citizens) in the clip for me. Citizens are really tired of bad governance and all its vices @KagutaMuseveni #BakozeBatya

I don’t know if this is still necessary but with new information I have to clear the record. The money Among and her cronies stole in the 8 months between July 2025 and Feb 2026 is over UGX 50,000,000,000 ( about $13.5M). These astronomical amounts spent on “parliamentary commission operations” were picked directly from @BOU_Official unlike those for “outreach programs” for the speaker and commissioners which were channeled through the Parliamentary Sacco. #UgandaParliamentExhibitionII

@CanaryMugume Don’t you find that embarrassing as a journalist that @AgoraCFR @AAgather @SpireJim and others ran a parliament exhibit implicating @AnitahAmong and no follow up was done by journalists and any of the media houses? What is the role of your media house?

Suddenly, the people who always mock our fight against abductions are decrying the very abductions they have always defended and christened 'arrests'. They will soon have lawyers filing Habeas Corpus and other applications for their rights to be upheld. All of a sudden, they will remember that there is a document called the Constitution with guarantees of liberty and fair trials. EVERYONE eventually realises that they need to or needed to have fought for the rule of law. The things we say every day about good governance, human rights, and the rule of law are not mere academic concepts. They're like breath - all of us need them to live and thrive. Sadly, many people learn this when it is too late!

Why has NRM @KagutaMuseveni been harassing the team at @AgoraCFR, freezing bank accounts of @AAgather, and targeting all the corruption whistleblowers in Uganda? When they were running the Parliament Exhibit, and even when the UK and USA sanctioned @AnitahAmong, they came to her defense and even arrested many anti-corruption activists. Suddenly the regime is raiding the home of Among under the umbrella of fighting corruption so that she can get out of the way of their preferred candidate for Speaker. If you are serious about fighting corruption, no one in Museveni’s circles would survive. The @NRMOnline regime owes the team at Agora and all the whistleblowers an apology.

Politics of political parties aside; Joel Ssenyonyi would make the best speaker of parliament.

When you fight corruption, it fights back! Every so often, I see propagandists claiming that I didn't produce this COSASE report because apparently I was bribed. Those who followed our investigation know that we produced our report, but the Speaker denied it audience, apparently because it "leaked." This is a report we submitted to the Speaker and Clerk's office, and then it was uploaded onto a system to be accessed by all the 529 MPs. How then could she claim it leaked? Also, which law says that when a report "leaks" then it should not be presented for debate in Parliament? Clearly that was just an excuse to frustrate the report. So for those who keep wondering who sat on the report, you now have the answer.

Does the position of @NRMOnline Party Secretary General still exist? They’re slowly discovering that the real decisions are made at a family dinner table, not in the CEC.
