'Let them die', Kyagulanyi tells western countries not aid Ugandans in the fight against Covid-19

 

Ugandans  have heard  with disbelief  Hon. Robert Kyagulanyi the Leader of the National Unity Platform, calling on all western countries not help  Ugandans get vaccines and other froms of help in the fight against Covid-19 pandemic.

After losing presidential elections, Using social media and international media, Kyagulanyi has resorted to using ludicrous allegations misinforming Ugandans and the international community. 

While calling on USA and European Countries not to Aid Ugandans fight against Covid-19 via CNN and his social media, he made alot of false  allegations without putting in consideration the ordinary Ugandans who are dying from  the pandemic.

He alleged that the regime in Kampala lacks legitimacy, which  is

laughable and shameful sincr the power to organize an election and to declare winners is vested in the electoral commission under Article 60 and 61 of the constitution of the Republic of Uganda. Any other results or declaration is just nonsense.

The elections in Uganda were conducted in a free, fair and peaceful

environment as per the recommendations of the AU , EAC and other

internationally accredited election observe teams and candidate Yoweri

Kaguta Museveni was declared the winner and inaugurated on May 12th

2021.

Kyagulanyi had a chance to challenge the election outcomes before the Supreme Court but

chose to withdraw the petition because he had no single evidence to

cause for the nullification of the election. Even in the public court

he threatened to resort to he had nothing to convince it and all he

had to do was to lie low like an envelope.

 

Kyagulanyi also wants to portray Uganda government as if it has misused

the loans from the International Monitory Fund (IMF) which is not the

case.  First of all IMF and the Ugandan authorities reached agreement

on a program to support the first next phase of the response to health

crisis by the pandemic.  The first money was used to support the

government reforms and helped to meet the financing needs.

Like many other countries, Uganda was hit by the Covid 19 shock and

the disruption in the global trade and containment measures put in

place to limit the spread of the virus. This means that the economic

activities sharply contracted in the second quarter of 2020. While the

economic activity then tried to pick up in, public health is still

under pressure with the roll out of COVID 19 vaccines need to be given

much attention.

The claim that the money was misused is not true. The money is for to

forestall a greater humanitarian crisis and necessary to fight the

Covid 19 pandemic. Access to vaccines is critical and any help from

the international community is much required.

However Kyagulanyi is desperately fighting this. He wants to see millions of Ugandans dying from the pandemic.
