PARLIAMENT
SMARTLY clad in a light grey suit and a red necktie, Lubaga South MP Mukasa Aloysius Talton Gold today (Wednesday) morning at 9:45 am sharp, in the name of the Almighty God took an oath to be faithful and bear true allegiance to the Republic of Uganda, to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution.
Accompanied by his beautiful wife Lilian Kobugabe and mother Annet Nayiga among others, Hon. Mukasa also took a second oath of Member of Parliament to give faithful service to the 11th Parliament, support and uphold the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda as by law established.
Shortly after, Mukasa addressed media at Parliament and vowed to use this platform, to fight what he called discriminatory laws, killings and arrest of opposition politicians.
Speaking with the American accent, a fluent Mukasa said, “I am going to be a whistle blower, am going to be an eye opener, I am going to be a defender against repugnant actions of selfish leaders. I won’t myself and the House that I am going to be sitting in to be blamed for the current negativities that are happening in the country.”
The opposition National Unity Platform (NUP) party legislator said, “I am going to fight indiscriminate killings, indiscriminate arrests of our brothers and sisters in opposition.”
This comes at a time when hundreds of political prisoners are in jails.
MP Mukasa talked about the dilapidated economy saying Parliament where he sits must perfectly allocate tax payers money so as to help arrest poverty in the country.
Looking at his constituency, Mukasa said even though it calls for him to be a sacrificial lamb, he will, and no one will silence him as he fights to end floods in Lubaga every time it rains, unemployment and poor service delivery.
Asked about the allegations that his academic papers are questionable, Mukasa who is a graduate of Business Administration at Ndejje University advised those behind these false rumours to concentrate on productive issues or else, they will keep on getting embarrassed.
“We massively won the elections, we will always trounce such enemies of the people. ignore their intrigue, we will never be diverted. It is now time for the history of Lubaga South to be rewritten.”
“Here is the real legislator, the real voice of the voiceless, I have come for real business. I will never be a disappointment to my beloved Lubaga South voters.” Pledged successful businessman Mukasa Aloysius.
Mukasa, trounced the incumbent Paul Kato Lubwama and other twelve candidates including NRM’s Charles Kenneth Male, DP’s Eugenia Nassolo and SDP’s Samuel Lubega Mukaaku.
