WILLIAM MUSISI, the opposition National Unity Platform (NUP) Party aspirant for Nakaseke District LCV Chiarman is a real force to be reckoned with!
Last week, during the National youth elections, Musisi put up a spirited fight against all attempts of rigging votes in Nakaseke District. At Makaayi in Ssemuto, he took on Ssemuto police boss after failed attempts to block him not to access polling stations.
A tough speaking Musisi face off with the Police boss and told him how he (Musisi) is a leader in the opposition leading NUP party, therefore, he can’t sit and fold hands when party youth are complaining about open day rigging.
Mr. Musisi who was narrowly defeated by NRM’s ignatius Koomu in the last election for Nakaseke District LCV Chiarman told police boss that, “Under my mandate as a leader in NUP and an aspirant of Nakaseke District LCV Chairmanship, I have come here to ascertain acts of vote rigging reported by our party youth on ground. It’s absurd that some of our members are denied an opportunity to elect their leaders. That is unacceptable.”
Police and other security operatives were accused by NUP for showing sides during the youth elections yet they are not supposed to be partisan. Mr. Musisi who on that day traversed most parts of Nakaseke to supervise youth elections say, polls were marred by irregularities and the declared results do not represent youths’ choices!
A renown activist and freedom fighter, Musisi addressed groups of NUP youth in Nakaseke not to lose hope saying, “We have a big war to fight and win early next year. Elections in some parts of Nakaseke were rigged but in 2026 it will not be business as usual. So let’s remain united and focused, we will tame votes rigging. We have to protect the victory of our President Robert Ssentamu Kyagulanyi and all flag bearers, come rainfall or sunshine.”
In the 2021 General elections, Nakaseke is one of the Luweero Triangle which fell to opposition NUP.
In Nakaseke Central Constituency, NUP’s Allan Mayanja Sebunya defeated former finance Cabinet minister Syda Bbumba.Hon. Paul Ssemakula Luttamaguzi was re elected MP Nakaseke South. Esther Nakawooya almost defeated NRM’s Sarah Najjuma for the District Woman Member of Parliament.NUP says, in 2026, they will take all elective seats in Nakaseke District.
However, ruling NRM Party leaders are also strategising and already plotting on how to reclaim Nakaseke District.In an exclusive interview with this leading investigative News Website, Mr. Musisi assured us of their team work saying, NUP is unbreakable in Nakaseke advising State minister for Kampala Kabuye Kyofatogabye, Hon. Sarah Najjuma, Ignatius Koomu and company not to waste their time and resources. We are told, Hon. Luttamaguzi who recently crossed to NUP from Democratic Party (DP) is the team leader in Nakaseke and ready to command NUP to victory in 2026!Let’s watch the space.
