Panic at NUP as Mathias Mpuuga calls for a retreat without Kyagulanyi’s authorization.



There is brewing tension in the national unity platform leadership after the party’s vice president for Buganda region making a move which many believe is the beginning of usurping powers from the party’s president, Hon. Robert Kyagulanyi.

Today the Mathias Mpuuga called a presser and announced that NUP will be going into a three day retreat next week where they will choose a candidate for speaker and deputy speaker of the 11th parliament.

However, according to National Unity Platform MP elect (names withheld),  the real reason behind the retreat is for Mathias Mpuuga to declare himself as the Leader of Opposition in the next parliament without the clearance of the party president Hon. Robert Kyagulanyi.

The MP elect added that Mpuuga is trying to blackmail Kyagulanyi into appointing him the leader of opposition in parliament since it will be hard to reserve the decision and appoint a different person after Mpuuga announcing himself.

The MP further revealed that NUP already decided to support Hon. Rebecca Kadaga for the speakership position and  therefore, the retreat is a trap that Mpuuga has setup in order to announce himself  as the only suitable candidate for the LOP position and convince others to support him.

Several people from NUP who include Betty Nambooze, Medard Ssegona and Joel Ssenyonyi have been eying the position as well.

It is alleged that Mpuuga hopes as the leader of opposition, he will have more powers over MPs than Kyagulanyi which will help him takeover the leadership of NUP

It also alleged that Mathius Mpuuga called for today’s presser without Kyagulanyi’s knowledge or consent a move many believe to be the beginning of the coup in the young party. Kyagulanyi is currently out of the country meeting the party’s foreign funders.

According to close associates of Mpuuga, he doesn’t believe in the leadership of Robert Kyagulanyi for he is less educated and highly inexperienced in terms of leadership.
