COACH Mike Mutebi will today evenning command Kasasiro boys in a well calculated attack intended to put a speed governor to Billionaire Lawrence Mulindwa’s Vipers Sports Club.
The Venoms of Entebbe road are 5 points clear, ahead of KCCA FC.
The City lads want to close the gap to two points to make their hopes of retaining the trophy, alive.
But if they sleep off and Vipers bag three points this evenning, soccer analysts say, their hopes will be gone.
So in today’s clash, Mutebi has ordered his boys to get the three points, not any other result.
This match comes just days after Mike Mutebi declared that it is still possible for his side to do a double this year despite being 5points behind Vipers.
During a pre-match press preconference held at star times Stadium Lugogo yesterday, the unpredictable tactician refuted claims that today’s clash with viper’s will be a title decider
‘’NO‘’, Mike replied, when asked if the game against the Venoms was a tittle decider.
“It’s just a normal game like any other. Yes they are our tittle competitors but there are still more games which will shape the league.‘’ Answered Mike Mutebi.
Mike revealed that todays game brings together two sides with the best players in the league and fans always expect to watch entertaining football when two sides meet.
KCCA FC hopes to make it a double over Kajoba boys after winning the reverse fixture 1-0 courtesy of Muzamir Mutyaba who returns just in time for the clash.
Mutebi said, ‘’We have the responsibility, ability and enough in our armory to pick a good result to further our ambition of retaining the league.’’
He said, he isnt scared about the Kitende based club.
‘’I don’t know what is their style of play, they haven’t been an attacking team even before Kajoba took over. I am not worried about them, I must perfect our ways of play and it’s them to worry about us.’’
In the other league games today, Sam Simbwa’s URA FC is paying a tricky visit to Busoga United, Deo Sserwadda will have to prove to his bosses that he is the right man for the job as Wakiso Giants host stubborn Maroons FC wheres Bright Stars will have to shine even brighter a way to Police FC

YOUTHFUL Abubaker Kawalya, Lord councilor representing Lubaga North at City Hall must be the happiest councilor aspiring for KCCA Speakership after getting endorsement by 8 members of Parliament out of 9 MPs representing Kampala in Parliament.
Also, all the five division mayors making up Kampala led by powerful FDC Buganda Vice President Owek. Joyce Juliet Nabbosa Ssebuggwawo have openly come out to rally behind Kawalya saying he is the best candidate for the job. Election of KCCA speaker is expected before the end of this February.
Kawalya’s poster during 2016 elections he massively won
“We are not happy about what’s going on at our party Headquaters. We will not support any attempt by a section of party leaders to use shortcuts. We are closely following all games being played against our son Haji Abubaker Kawalya but he has our blessings. I will in fact talk to Dr. Besigye about day dreamers who think can impose Doreen Nyanjura on councilors. What does she know about FDC?” Asked Lubaga Division mayor, Owek. Ssebuggwawo.
This comes at a time when Party officials have declared Nyanjura as the official party flag bearer, something Ssebuggwawo has denied.
“Who made her a flag bearer? Which qualifications does she have better than Kawalya? We will not allow such dramatic scenes. Kawalya is FDC 311, we will support him and do everything to make sure he is the KCCA Speaker.” Vowed Buganda Kingdom former minister.
Kawalya camp advised him to shun ‘fake’ FDC nominations fearing to step on their political landmines.
According to his campaign manager, “Winning is on our way. FDC Caucus elected Kawalya and everything was sealed. We are only waiting for the election day to disapprove those cliques fighting Kawalya.”
Other mayors who have boosted Kawalya camp includes; Charles Musoke Sserunjogi (Kampala Central), Ronald Balimwezo ( Nakawa), Haji Ali Kasirye Nganda Mulyannyama (Makindye) and Emanuel Sserunjoji Oweddembe (Kawempe).
We are reliably informed, mayors of Particular divisions are secretly meeting their LC V councilors to vote for Haji Kawalya. We are even aware of late night meetings to see Kawalya win with flying colours.
“On this, we are showing solidarity. As Kampala division mayors, we are behind Abubaker Kawalya. He will serve a better Speaker. He is pro people, a young man who listens and very dependable.” Said Kampala Central mayor, Charles Sserunjogi Musoke.
8 MPS BOOST KAWALYA CAMP They are led by COSASE Chairman and Kawempe South MP Mubarak Munyagwa Mugaatigwabbata, COSASE Vice Chairman also Makindye East MP Ibrahim Kasozi, Lubaga South MP Paulo Kato Lubwama and Kawempe North MP Latif Sebaggala Ssengendo.
Others are; Muhammad Nsereko ( Kampala Central), Nabilah Naggayi Sempala (Kampala Woman MP) and Hon. Allan Ssewanyana (Makindye West).

To our shock, Hon. Micheal Kabaziguruka (Nakawa) who is a brother to Nyanjura’s husband, is also team Kawalya.
In fact when FDC party president was announcing Nyanjura’s nomination today at the Party Headquaters, no Kampala MP showed up.
It’s only Hon. Moses Kasibante (Lubaga North) who is behind Lukwago’s Doreen Nyanjura and his issues are personal.
WHY KASIBANTE HATES KAWALYA Kawalya has been in the news targeting Hon. Moses Kasibante Lubaga North seat in 2021and has full support both in FDC and People Power.

During a meeting at Bobi Wine’s Magere home, Kyaddondo East legislator openly told Lubaga North People power youth who had visited him that in 2021 he will support Kawalya for MP seat calling him, “A very hardworking FDC young man who shares People power ideologies. “ Kyagulanyi said People Power has no problem with the leaders like Kawalya who embrace People Power activities.
“Kawalya is on ground mobilising our people. He is in FDC but not fighting our genuine cause. He is our brother, we can’t fight him. We have many colleagues in FDC, NRM and other parties who believe in the People power struggle, we will always stand with them.” Kyagulanyi told Lubaga North youth who were led by Hakim Kizza Saula.
It is not known whether this is why Kawalya is fought by Katonga’s Peoples Government not to take over KCCA Speaker slot.
However those knowing Kawalya said, this councilor who chairs Engineering and Road Works committee is determined to contest with any one be it fronted by Lord mayor or NRM.
Kawalya told the News Editor Online that, “I have no problem with any member presenting him or herself. That is democracy. Let them come, councilors will decide. I have all the qualifications for this job and am in touch with councilors who have asked me to contest. Yes I will and winning is for us.”
Serving his first term as councilor, Kawalya is a Ghetto boy who grew up in the slums of Kawaala, Kasubi and Nakulabye. He is talked about as the richest young councilor in Lukwago’s council, approachable and very generous.
Before being voted KCCA councilor, he served in KCCA making him known by the technical wing.
Kawalya commands genuine support from fellow councilors and other stakeholders, with higher chances of winning the Speaker job.

He was Archdeacon of Masindi from 1994 to 1999, Diocesan Secretary of Bunyoro-Kitara from 2000 to 2002, and Provincial Secretary for the Church of Uganda from 2003 to 2004.

Archbishop elect – Dr. Kazimba
KAZIMBA IS A HUMBLE SERVANT – NTAGALI Speaking in the press conference shortly after Kazimba was declared Archbishop – elect, the outgoing Archbishop Dr. Stanely Ntagali referred to his successor as a very down to earth servant who deserved this win. “Martin Luther King Jr once said ‘I have a dream that one day, Black and White Ameriacans will walk shoulder by shoulder on the streets of Washington and New York’. And recently we had the grand son of Africa being the President of USA. Mine is not a dream, it is a testimony.” Ntagali said, adding, “Two days before I was elected Archbishop of Church of Uganda, a dear brother came to me and said, ‘Brother you are being speculated by the press. I feel that we need to sit down and pray together.’ I said, it is a good idea. This was my brother Bishop Steven Kazimba. “ “He never knew that God was preparing him to be the 9th Archbishop of the Church of Uganda. My brother I congratulate you and thank God for your humility and I want to thank the provincial Chancellor who led the election exercise. We thank God for this humble and great man of God to whom am going to handle over the province as the 9th Archbishop.” Said Dr. Ntagali. He also asked Nation to pray for his wife Beatrice and for Kazimba and wife Margret as they prepare to take over the mantal.
On this day, Ntagali will also handover Provincial documents with reports about all Dioceses, Bishops, Reverands and other Church leaders. They will have details about Church of Uganda land, schools, hospitals and other properties.
LED by their CAO,Loyce Joyce Nambozo, the leadership of Namayingo District has appealed to Busoga Kingdom to prioritize its programs in the Island District.
Interacting with the Team Leader Ekigangu kya Busoga also State Minister for Gender, Women and Children Affairs, Owek.

“Being an island District comes with both advantages and disadvantages however,the latter outweighs the former to the total disappointment of the targeted beneficiaries that we serve.” She said adding that as a District, they need more programs moreso from the Kingdom being a cultural institution that unites all the people of Busoga and the surrounding areas.
“As a District, we enjoy a good working relationship with the Kingdom and we are receptive to all programs aimed at uplifting our people in addition to mindset change. However, for Namayingo’s case,we ask for affirmative action from Busoga Kingdom as regards service delivery.” She pleaded before commending the management of Ekigangu for prioritizing to address the plight of children in the whole of Busoga without any discrimination.Nambozo, who also received a copy of the 1st Edition of Ekigangu Publication from the Team Leader,argued that the Ekigangu initiative was a well thought idea that will skill the beneficiaries in order to fit into the changing times of the job market.

Relatedly, the District Vice Chairman Samuel Barasa Mojjo flanked by the Secretary for Education-Wandera, asked the Kingdom administration to always consider their area as a special place for support to enable them serve their people better.
On her part, Dr.Abaliwano assured the leadership of Namayingo District that the Kyabazinga,Prime Minister together with the other organs at Bugembe have their area at heart qualifying her visit as being one of the reasons.
Dr.Abaliwano, who will spend several weeks in the District interacting with both parents/guardians,teachers and learners to address child abuse, poor academic performance, Gender Based Violence, also delivered a message from the Speaker of Parliament who is also the Managing Director Ekigangu, Rt. Hon.Rebecca Alitwala Kadaga.
“Be rest assured of our commitment as Busoga Kingdom to be with you as we strive to change the whole of Busoga for the better. We must work and succeed as a team for Busoga needs a combined effort from the different stakeholders.” She said before assuring her hosts that both the Kyabazinga and Speaker of Parliament are concerned about their area that posts poor results whenever UNEB releases exams yet Busoga wants to use education to change the state of affairs in their area.
A LOT has not been told about top Pastors’ hot meeting convened by newly appointed Acting Uganda Communications Commission Executive Director Ms. Irene Kaggwa to engage them on the alleged misuse of their houses through trading insults against each other
UCC is a government agency responsible for regulating the Communications sector, which includes Telecommunications, Broadcasting, radio communication, postal communications, data communication and infrastructure.
In the meeting, was Dr. Joseph Sserwadda of Victory Church Ndeeba. Others were; Pr. Jackson Ssenyonga of Christian Life Church Makerere Kavule, Aloysius Bugingo of House of Prayer Ministries, Deo Ssemakula, Mondo Mugisha and Ronie Makabayi.
The meeting which was out of access for the press, UCC started by reminding Pastors about the minimum broadcast standards, clearly stressing that insulting each other using the airwaves violates the stipulated standards and thus, asking them to refrain from it.
News Editor Online investigative team was deployed to dig deeper and find out what really transpired in meeting, here we report back;
DID SSENYONGA BRAND BUGINGO A FALSE PROPHET?
When asked for his submission, Dr. Jackson Ssenyonga who had no kind words towards Aloysius Bugingo expressed strong disapproval of the continued falsehoods advanced with impunity by what he called, criminals disguising as Born Again pastors in Uganda.
Pr. Jackson Ssenyonga arriving for UCC meeting. He was accompanied by Top media manager Steven Dunstan Busuulwa
The popularly known P.5 Pastor said, his next line of action is to help victims of their fraud and false prophecy find justice from the authorities.
Pastor Ssenyonga who has for long been at the forefront in preaching against false prophets who intentionally misread the scriptures with an intention of misleading the followers to defraud and mislead them so as to suit their ill personal agenda, used most of the time and said he will not relent on exposing the criminals hiding in the church to commit crimes.
“I have an obligation of protecting the innocent children of God who are genuinely seeking the grace of God, from exploitation and fraud by the greedy ‘pastors’. No one, be it who will stop the gospel to be spread.” Said Pr. Jackson Ssenyonga.
Without mentioning names, Ssenyonga talked about those calling themselves Pastors but always in newspapers for dumping their wives and impregnating Church girls.
“Is that Biblical? And you expect Pastors to just look on as such false prophets are killing the Church? Impossible.” Vowed Ssenyonga.
Analysts interpret that, Ssenyonga missiles were targeting Bugingo who recently dumped his wife Teddy Bugingo for a church girl, a one Suzan Makula, whom he is proud of impregnating and their wedding preparations on-going.
Bugingo has publicly stated that dumping one’s wife or divorce is acceptable. He says married vows and ring are not biblical since according to him, nobody made the same vows in the Bible.
To Ssenyonga, this is not Biblical and openly told UCC bosses, “We will continue exposing such false prophets who misinterpret the Holly Bible. We were called to serve and spread the gospel, so we will.”
During his Church live broadcast preaching, Ssenyonga has addressed Bugingo a false prophet and offended him for using the pulpit to order his followers burn some Bibles he deemed fake.
“These and other false teachings are what Pastor Ssenyonga continues to fight against.” Ssenyonga tells UCC boss.
According to him, “False prophets like Kakande, Ssemakula and others use disgruntled individuals to forge testimonies and miracles in their ‘worshiping’ places as well as satanic powers to lead the followers into darkness.”
In fact when President Museveni visited Ssenyonga Church late last year, he told The Head of State that he (Ssenyonga) has evidence of some of these false prophets with mass graves and asked police to intervene and apprehend the criminals.
YES I WAS OPEN ON FALSE PROPHETS – SSENYONGA ADMITS
Speaking exclusively to the News Editor Online shortly after the UCC meeting, Pr. Ssenyonga admitted how he pinned false prophets in the presence of UCC officials.
He told us, ”The meeting has resolved that we should not mention the names of these false prophets on air and that we should always reach out to each other in case of learning on their false teachings.”
“UCC said they have no control over what and how we preach the word of God in the Church noting that their concern is what goes on air. They said we are free to call someone anything within the church as long as it is not broadcast, which means as Ssenyonya, I am at liberty to refer to anyone as a false prophet in the Church as long as I find him to be so,” said Pastor Ssenyonga.
”I tipped UCC on how these people defraud the flock including bringing people in taxi vans to give false testimony and tramped up miracles. I can’t keep quiet about such. I am fighting for the Church and the children of God,”
He however noted that he told UCC that the fraud and misleading messages are aired on radio and television, saying as long as the communications regulator leaves such messages to continue being broadcast in the media, they will always attract people’s attention including him who will not hesitate to respond.1
”Most of these things are done on air and I told UCC that when such misleading information is relayed, it calls for our reaction.” Said Ssenyonga adding, “So if UCC remains tight-lipped for three months on a false preaching by Bugingo that the ring and marriage vows are satanic, without reining-in on him to an extent that it took the intervention of parliament and the Ethics minister, we are forced to come in if nothing is done.”
”If someone is using the air to relay falsehoods, we must also use the air to correct him and the followers he has misled.” Says Ssenyonga, adding, “I told UCC to level the ground on which we play false prophet has lied for the whole two months, yet for us, we have spoken for only two weeks to undo his lies and you want to silence us. What I am doing is to a react, I react to his (Bugingo) lies, things he says that I don’t believe in. Let the regulation work for all of us.”
He told us how he can not let someone disguising as a pastor to abuse the institution of marriage and he remains shut. He vowed to continue referring to the false teachings by these individuals to tell the public the true scripture.
“I am fighting for the children of God who are killed, their money stolen as well as giving them in to their spirits and evil masters.” Said Ssenyonga .
He further explained that false prophets have taken it upon themselves to commit crimes and bribe the authorities to cover them up.
He told us that, when he brought this to the attention of the regulator, he was told that they (UCC) has no jurisdiction to investigate crime, and so he was referred to police and other authorities.
”If UCC says that the falsehoods and exploitative lies they hear on air is not enough evidence to reign-in on these false prophets, then what did they base on to ban witch-doctors from the airwaves and closing down stations that hosted them n rural areas? Asked Pr. Ssenyonga.
“I assured UCC how I have evidence pinning false prophets that I wanted to give them so that they know the truth about these false prophets,” reiterated pastor Ssenyonga.
“I tipped UCC on how these people defraud the flock including bringing people in taxi vans to give false testimony and tramped up miracles. I can’t keep quiet about such. I am fighting for the Church and the children of God,” he added.
Pr. Ssenyonga vowed never to stop talking about Bugingo and his likes if they don’t stop disrespecting and preaching against the institution of marriage as well as fighting the church.
He applauded the communication regulator for admitting that they lack the jurisdiction to handle crime by these ‘pastors’.
He says that his next course of action is to send all the victims of fraud to police and other authorities and help them get justice.
BUGINGO APOLOGIZE
Meanwhile Bugingo used the meeting only to apologize for using his media house to abuse and insult pastors in the countryear.
DR. JOSEPH SSERWADDA SPEAKS OUT
According to Victory Christian Ndeeba based church Pastor Dr. Joseph Sserwadda, this was a one sided meeting.
He says, there was only one group of the accused and the offenders.
“The other group to which I actually belong, the victims and the offended, were not represented. So the offenders took advantage of the occasion and jumped onto themselves with sharp accusations against each other’s actions and re-actions! It was such a site!” Says Dr. Joseph Sserwadda.
He said, one group (Bugingo) apologized and promised to never say anything silly. The other (Pr. Ssenyonga) promised to react if any silly~ness resurfaced.
Sserwadda told us in an exclusive interview, “The rest of us just watched in a forced silence, and oh yes, prayed. I still have a question though: what caused this meeting? Who was so offended, and by which Media House, that such urgent summons were issued? And, would the meeting have been different if the former ED was in charge? Your guess is as good as mine.” Reasoned Presiding Apostle Dr. Joseph Sserwadda.
MAKINDYE West Legislator Allan Ssewanyana is very much worried about his life after unidentified people dropped letters having list of most wanted politicians, his name included.
Hon. Ssewanyana getting death threats
Notably on the list, are the Members of Parliament driving a motion to censure security minister Gen. Elly Tumwine and ofcourse Kampala Lordmayor Erias Lukwago who is believed to be giving legal counsel to these MPs .
On the most wanted list are; Hon. Allan Ssewanyana Hon. Robert Ssentamu Kyagulanyi Hon. Moses Kasibante Hon. Roland Mugume Kakindu Hon. Latif Sebagala Hon. Theodore Ssekikubo Hon. Francis Butebi Zaake Hon. Banabas Tinkasimire Hon. Medard Lubega Sseggona Hon. Gaffa Mbwatekamwa Hon. Betty Nambooze Bakireke Hon. Egunyu Nantume
Hon. Muwanga Kivumbi Lord mayor Erias Lukwago
Speaking to the News Editor Online today Saturday morning, Hon. Ssewanyana has said, “Found those letters dropped at my gate this morning and along the way that leads to my home and some areas in my constituency.”
Hon. Egunyu life targeted
Yesterday, a team of five Members of Parliament behind the petition to cause Minister Tumwine censure held a presser at Parliament to update the public about signature collection, smelt a rat that their move may hit a deadlock following a poor turn up of their colleagues to sign the petition.
A meeting which was expected to be attended by a good number of MPs, only a few turned up for the press conference which left behind many un answered questions on why others chickened out and stayed away from our cameras.
Those attended include; Hon. Allan Ssewanyana, Hon. Ssekikubo, Hon. Barnabas Tinkasimire, Hon. John Baptist Nambeshe and Hon. Moses Kasibante.
Hon. Moses Kasibante
The five put it to other Mps who have shunned this petition that they have run away from their constitutional mandate.
This petition has only three days to go and if over 145 MPs don’t sign it, will definately be thrown in the dustbin.
Hon. Mbwatekamwa
The petition comes after Parliamentary Human Rights Committee chaired by Hon. Egunyu authored a report implicating the four star Gen. Tumwine, the line minister for blocking committee members tour ‘safe houses’ which to them are the illegal tourture chambers where people are detained from and tortured.
A few days ago, a group of notorious youth addressed media warning MPs behind this censure move that they will be dealt with if they don’t leave in peace the security minister who is perfectly handling insecurity in the country.
Hon. Latif Sebaggala
It isn’t known whether this group is behind lists of these very MPs dropped at Hon. Ssewanyana’s gate to scare him and his colleagues away from proceeding with censuring Security minister Tumwine.
