By 8am, hundreds of people had already thronged the streets of Masindi Municipality, and the Stadium as they prepared for the historic launch that also involved various activities including finals of the Balaam Cup, as well as the ‘Kasiki’ party for the 49th birthday celebrations of Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba.
He (Gen Kainerugaba) will clock 49 years of on Monday April 24.
Youths donning T-shirts and caps bearing Gen. Kainerugaba’s image and chanting mobilization slogans, cleaned the streets of Masindi Municipality.

In the Stadium, the finals of the Balaam Cup were ongoing with several dignitaries led by Lt Gen (Rtd) Owoyesigire, CID Director and a born of the area AIGP Tom Magambo Rwabudongo, Col Chris Magezi, Masindi District Chairman Cosmas Byaruhanga, Masindi District Woman MP Dr Florence Akiiki Asiimwe and MP Buruuli County Aled Akuguzibwe in attendance.
Others included Igara East MP Michael Mawanda who is also a member of the MK Movement leadership, Speaker Masindi District Council, Mayors of Divisions in Masindi Municipality, representatives from Bunyoro Kingdom among others.

‘MUHOOZI WILL TAKE OVER’, SAYS GEN. BEESIGYE
In his address to the congregation, Gen. Owoyesigire said him and a crop of other retired Generals including President Yoweri Museveni are aging, thus the need for able and trusted young leaders to take over leadership and further their contribution for a better Uganda.
“Gen Museveni is retired, I am retired and many of our colleagues. This is the reason we are backing Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba as the country’s next President. Uganda has come a long way and so it now requires a patriotic and able leader to prevent it from sliding back to where we found it,” Gen Owoyesigire said on Saturday.

He said Gen Kainerugaba is the deal and that whoever has doubts should interpret ‘the readings on the wall’.
For starters, Gen. Beesigye has vast knowledge and experience in Field Artillery and Air Defence. Before his most recent assignment to Somalia, he was chairman of the Steering Committee for the establishment of the National Defence College, Uganda. He also represented the UPDF in the 9th Ugandan Parliament (2011 to 2016). He was was the Force Commander AMISON until 2021 when he retired.
Addrssing MK supporters in Masindi Beesigye said, “Last week you saw me in Kigezi Subregion for the Rukundo Egumeho thanksgiving, and see, today I am here. Does that sound like a joke to you?” he asked.
The retired senior military officer would then gift a cow to each Mayor of the 8 Divisions in the Municipality that participated in the tournament, before calling on people to engage in income generating activities to fight poverty.
He would then proceed to launch the MK Movement Chapter in Bunyoro, tasking its first leaders to focus on improving the lives of the fellow youths, which he said is the cornerstone of Gen Kainerugaba’s aspiration to lead Uganda after President Museveni.
On his part, the MK Movement National Vice Chairman for Western Uganda, Dr. Balaam Barugahara, who was the organiser of the event, said arrangements were ongoing to organize similar events again in Masindi and Hoima which will be presided over by Gen Kainerugaba himself.
“I bring you greetings from Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba, our next President. He so much wanted to have time with you but he could not make it due to other unavoidable commitments. We are however planning for two more mega events in Masindi and Hoima which the General says must attend. He loves you and loves Bunyoro so much,” Dr Barugahara said.
He noted that the ‘Kasiki’ was meant to create unity among the people of Masindi Municipality and also send an explicit message that Gen Kainerugaba is loved and appreciated across the country.
“First of all, we have done this to show love to our next President Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba, but also to communicate that he is loved in all parts of the country,” Dr Barugahara expanded.
“You saw the numbers in West Nile, Bugisu, Sebei and most recently in Kigezi Subregion. These mammoth crowds only speak to the fact that the country is yearning for Gen Kainerugaba, the standby generator.”
“Now see all these people, in thousands, here in Masindi. They are here for unity as Banyoro but also to add their voice that they want a better Uganda under Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba as the next President,” he added.
Dr Barugahara would further reiterate that Gen Kainerugaba had sent him to remind the people of Masindi and Bunyoro to engage in the existing government programs like Emyooga and Parish Development Model, commercial agriculture and provision of services as one way of moving out of poverty.
On the launched MK Movement Bunyoro Chapter, Barugahara said that this is the beginning as more chapters, starting with Rwenzori and Karamoja, will be opened in other parts of the country and outside Uganda in the near future to push forward the cause of having Gen Kainerugaba as the next President.
Earlier this month, the supporters of Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba under the MK Movement launched the first ever diaspora chapter and leadership struct in United Kingdom.

ADAM Mulwana, populary known for Rtd. Col. Dr. Kizza Besigye’s 2011 and 2016 presidential campaign hit song, ‘Toka kwa bara bara, Besigye ameyingiya, towa kwa baasi yakwo tunayenda kifunguwo’ and ‘Besigye Songa mbere’, poisoned! 
His liver was affected, we are told, thanks to the medical doctors who have done everything possible to manage the situation. 
This evening, a delegation of Senior Party leaders led by Party President Hon.  Eng. Patrick Oboi Amuriat (POA) paid a courtesy visit to this star boy Adam Mulwana at his home in  Luwafu Parish, Makindye Division, Kampala City. 

This leading investigative news website is reliably informed that, Adam Mulwana an artist and a staunch FDC Party member is recuperating well and assured the Party President and the delegation that he can now stand on his feet. 
Mr. Mulwana was diagnosed with poison which affected his liver but he is being managed. 
The Party delegation also consisted of; Hon. William Nzoghu Mushabe the FDC Deputy President,  Hon. Kaps Hassan Fungaroo the FDC Party National mobilisation and Organization Secretary, Hon. Boniface Toterebuka Bamwenda the Party Electoral Commission Chairman, Mr. Kyambadde Wilberforce the Deputy Treasurer General, Mr. Mulindwa Walid Lubega the National Youth League Chairman, Party Staffs; among others.

The Party President on behalf of the delegation delivered the Party’s contribution towards the support and welfare of Mr. Mulwana and promised him that he will never walk alone. Mulwana once contested for councilor but he didnt make it.

According to a story published by Daily Monitor in 2021, Adam Mulwana once talked about being trailed by strange people for a mere song he did.
“I do not tell people where I stay. In fact, I have switched houses four times ever since the campaigns began,” Mulwana would later reveal to Daily Monitor. 
He said, “I have moved my two children to another location to protect them. So I only stay with my wife. I think that way we are safer.”
On several occasions, Mulwana told media that he had mysterious men come to his home, questioning his wife about his whereabouts with no clear reason. “That is the reason I have kept moving only for them to locate me again,” he explains.
Mulwana has been moving within the musical circles for a while. He started out in 2010 as a ‘poster boy’ in the now defunct Eagles Production.
“My role was promotion. I was always assigned to erect banners and put up posters in various locations ahead of the band’s shows,” Mulwana revealed to Daily Monitor.
He remembered being deployed to every corner of the country to make sure the posters were up; a job he took very seriously until the time the band started breaking up.
The last born in a family of five was born in Buziranduulu, Luweero District. And just like his deceased parents, he was a strong supporter of the NRM government. “My father died for this government,” he repeatedly proclaims.
It is his two elder brothers, however, who died first as Kadogos in the NRA bush war. As he has been told by his maternal uncle who became his guardian after his father’s death, Mulwana’s two brothers joined the Bush War as young teenagers and were both killed in 1983.
His father, having shielded the NRA soldiers for too long was murdered around 1985 for supporting the rebels and the mother was consequently married off to a government soldier in Nakasongola. “She came back around 1988 but died in 2004,” Mulwana told Daily Monitor in an interview narrating how he fell in love with Dr. Besigye and FDC.

Here at News Editor Media, we wish Adam Mulwana a quick recovery

MOSES MUGALULA
LUWERO TRIANGLE

THE Head of State who doubles as Chairman of the ruling NRM Party Yoweri Tibuhaburwa Museveni has officially launched another war in Luwero Triangle, this time not a guerilla but a war against poverty which he has vowed to fight and end successfully.
Museveni directed his blue eyed girl Hajjat Hadijah Namyalo Uzeiye commonly known as Chief Muzukkulu to rally all ONC army of cordinators and invade Luwero Triangle, go district by district, constituency by constituency, village per village identifying homesteads having vulnarable people, but with space, give them chicks, hybrid goats and sheep to help them end poverty.
For starters, Hajjat Namyalo is the PA Office of the National Chairman (ONC) NRM, also Special Presidential Advisor (SPA) and leader ‘Jjajja tova ku Main, sigala ku ballot’, a campaign speareheaded by youth seaking for Museveni’s return as President in 2026 and beyond.

Speaking to hundreds of people today in the three constituencies of Baamunanika, Katikamu North and Katikamu South where she delivered 12,000 chicken, over 600 bags feeds and 240 hybrid goats, a workholick Namyalo said President Museveni is fed up of too much bureaucracy in government programs put in place to fight and end poverty. Ms. Namyalo has directives from The Head of State to directly liase with village chairpersons, help her identify vulnarable families, receive chicks, goats, sheep and everything required to help them look after the project until it’s ready for them to start harvesting money.
“Today i am here to launch ONC Wealth creation campaign under office of the National Chairman NRM, supervised by the Chairman President Museveni, himself. He has given me directives to directly reach out to vulnarable poor, give them chicks, goats and sheep, give you freeds, give you veterinary officers and financial upkeep so that you don’t give excuses. Poverty must be history in Luwero triangle. We will together devise means to end poverty in Luwero. War against poverty is commanded by Gen. Museveni and it will be defeated.” Hajjat Namyalo told the people of Bamunaanika, Ziroobwe in Luweero district.
For about four decades, Luwero Triangle where NRA guerilla war was fought has suffered the ravages of poverty. President Museveni has introduced a number of programs to end poverty but have been hit so much by bureaucracy and corruption. 
This time looks like he has finally found a lasting solution to the numerous ills that bedvils poverty in Luwero triangle by deploying his Personal assistant Namyalo and a team of ONC cordinators to directly reach out all villages and deliver these items to the beneficiary.
Museveni directed that this time, all items to fight poverty must be delivered straight to the beneficiary not through middlemen or brokers. This is what Hajjat Namyalo fulfilled today in the three constituencies making up Luwero districts.
“Because public has been complaining about how slow are government programs, that many don’t benefit from such programs due to high bureaucracy and a lot of money wasted in monitoring, the president has changed his approach. He has thence given directives to the manager ONC and she has complied.” Deputy PRO ONC Dr. Tibamwenda Brenda briefed News Editor Media.

In this campaign, ONC is boosting agriculture by mainly targeting the youth and in this endeavor, Hajjat Hadijah is donating 8000 chicks and 80 hybrid goats to the various families every constituency for the start. 
In Katikamu North, each of 20 people identified by local chairpersons received 200 chicks, other 40 people received 80 hybrid goats and 750kgs of feeds that beginning with starters mash, growers mash, and finisher mash plus medication for the chicks, all delivered by Hajjat Hadijah Namyalo Uzeiye.
Same to other two constituencies of Katikamu South and in Ziroobwe, Baamunaanika were vulnarable families received 8000 chicks, feeds and 160 hybrid goats to boost their incomes.
In every region, a veterinary officer was identified to monitor and treat for free of charge, the poultry and goats. Those who got chicks and goats were also given transport facilitation to help them take the chicks, goats and feeds to their respective homes.
Mr. Hakim Kyeswa who is attached to ONC Media desk told us, the next stop over is in Nakaseke district next week and Nakasongola district all in Luweero triangle. Then ONC wealth creation drive will spread to other Luweero triangle districts, and other parts of the country.
“This is a successful project loking at the speed, effeciency and transparency of the ONC boss Hajjat Hadijah Namyalo and her team. People have today received chicks, goats and feeds instantly. It’s time for action.” Said Hakim Kyeswa.
He said, basically, this project has come to backup parish development model and Emyoga. Only that this one has no bureaucracy.
Hakim Kyeswa told us that, “ONC doesnt only give out projects but also do feasibility study about this program and other government progams. We capture them and other presidential pledges. This program under our able leader Hajjat Namyalo will automatically be a success, poverty will be history.”
Addressing residents in Katikamu, Hajjat Namyalo clearly stated that this is a program from the office of the National Chairman NRM, not from the NRM secretariate.

OPM receiving 500 iron sheets delivered by Speaker Annet Anita Among

NEWS EDITOR MEDIA

THIS publication has learnt that the cost of each iron sheet meant for Karamoja cost the tax payer Shs 71,000. 
According to documents that we have seen, that specific 28 size gauge ordinary corrugated galvanized, pre-painted (sand beige) is only supplied at the specific behest of the Office of the Price Minister, and at selected manufacturers.
Yesterday, a team dispatched from the office of the Speaker spent the day at the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) warehouse in Namanve as they took back iron sheets that they had paid for, but not delivered 3 weeks later. 
Mr Joseph Sabiti, the Speaker’s Private Press Secretary (PPS) confirmed to this publication that the iron sheets had been finally accepted by OPM.
“There were procedural issues to be followed and the coordination. Then the CID (criminal investigative department of police) office had  to confirm that it was the quality and the quantity but finally, all was put in place and we are now fine,” Mr Sabiti said in an interview. 
A market survey conducted by this publication revealed that the same gauge and quoits, in different colour sheds can be acquired at a price ranging from Shs 35,000-Shs 40,000, which has sparked debate and raised procurement queries at OPM.
On 15th March 2023, Speaker Among while presiding over the plenary session said: “I have taken a conscious decision to deliver 500 iron sheets to your stores in Namanve. This delivery is to compensate for the iron sheets of a similar quantity and quality  that were delivered in Bukedea District in 2022.” 
Attempts to get a comment from the known OPM officials were futile  after numerous unanswered  calls.
Several ministers and MPs, including Speaker Among, Vice President Alupo and former Speaker Rebeca Kadaga have openly come out to condemn the manner in which they were dragged into the scandal, yet they did not solicit, nor know how the irons sheets got to their constituencies.
