In a surprising turn of events, Mbarara City Mayor Robert Kakyebezi finds himself on shaky ground as voters express outrage over derogatory comments made by him. The mayor referred to voters as “enyawawa” (ibis), leading to widespread discontent among the electorate.
Kakyebezi’s insulting remarks, comparing voters to enyawawa, have ignited anger and resentment among the community.
Many are now questioning their decision to vote for him in the previous elections, and this sentiment has fueled a movement advocating for a change in leadership.
Responding to voters’ inquiries about accountability for taxpayers’ money, Kakyebezi’s offensive language further strained the relationship between the mayor and the electorate. The incident has prompted a collective call for change, with many now supporting Mr. Nsiimire Godwin as the preferred candidate for the next mayor of Mbarara City.
Campaign agents have rallied behind Mr. Nsiimire Godwin, signaling a shift in allegiance away from the incumbent mayor. Kakyebezi, known for his talkative and noisy demeanor, now faces a challenging battle to retain his mayoral position, as the public openly displays their dissatisfaction and animosity toward him.
The upcoming elections will serve as a critical juncture for Kakyebezi’s political future, as voters consider a new direction for Mbarara City.
