Time is the ultimate judge, and in the realm of Ugandan politics, its verdict is becoming increasingly clear. A growing chorus of politicians has claimed credit for shaping the trajectory of Robert Kyagulanyi, better known as Bobi Wine.
Yet, as the political landscape unfolds, it is evident that these self-proclaimed architects of his success are faltering in their own pursuits, both on the national stage and within their communities.
Despite their claims, the actions of these politicians tell a different story. Instead of constructive engagement, they have resorted to relentless attacks on Bobi Wine and key figures in the National Unity Platform (NUP), such as Benjamin Katana, Joel Ssenyonyi, and Lewis Rubongoya.
Their orchestrated assaults have failed to resonate with the Ugandan populace, who increasingly see through their tactics.
Additionally, an insidious narrative propagated by NRM mobilizers and state operatives posits that NUP leaders are agents of President Museveni. This claim raises critical questions: If these leaders truly serve the regime, then why do NRM Mobilisers and state operatives consistently expose them?.
If Bobi wine, Rubongoya, Benjamin katana and Ssenyonyi work for President Museveni, then state operatives and NRM would instead make sure that the above leaders are not known by the public. Can we say that NRM mobilisers and state operatives are against the wishes of Gen Yoweri Kaguta Museveni by exposing his own agents?. This contradiction suggests a deliberate attempt at misinformation, aiming to undermine the credibility of the NUP but its in vain.
Some of us who support Museveni recognizing that his leadership differs significantly from the rhetoric of his NRM Mobilisers and state operatives. Museveni doesn’t take chances neither does he despise any one with masses. Museveni will never fund anyone to discredit him globally and locally. This man has suffered for over 50 years. He has a legacy to protect.
Its important to note that NUP has successfully infiltrated even the remotest villages allover Uganda, laying the groundwork for a potential political revolution that could challenge the status quo.
As NRM strategists reflect on their approach, it becomes clear that attacking Bobi Wine is futile. A more effective strategy would involve engaging communities, creating jobs, and supporting local initiatives. Ultimately, the failure of those who claimed to have made Bobi Wine underscores a painful reality: they are now facing imminent political defeat, a lesson in humility that time has enforced. It’s a pity that politicians who claim to have made Bobi wine are now struggling to make themselves. It’s laughable.
