NUP PLANS TO FRUSTRATE THE BAIL AMENDMENT PROPOSAL LEAKED

The proposal wishes for capital offenders including murder suspects denied bail, saying it is a provocation to the victims and other families.

It was recently endorsed by the Cabinet that prominently singled out suspects on murder, rape, robbery and treason charges among others as the main target for the amendment.

A secret plot by the National Unity Platform leadership and activists to frustrate the current bail amendment proposal by government has leaked.

A security source has revealed how NUP is now clandestinely planning to harass and attack Members of Parliament in a bid to threaten not to back the proposal.

“We have established how this group is secretly mobilizing their radical members to stalk our legislators by making multiple phone calls not to support this proposed bill. Each member has been assigned the task to make a minimum of 100 phone calls to an MP within this week,” said the security source who preferred anonymity.

NUP and its hired activists have for weeks been conducting several meetings laying strategies on how to either demobilize, frustrate or foil with intend to make the proposal hated by Ugandans

According to the source, the Plan to intimidate and threaten Mps is being coordinated by a group of NUP supporters led by a one Aiden Kaliisa where they intend to mount fears into the legislators and directly cause deliberate jeopardy on their personal life.

The source further revealed that NUP has been holding various clandestine engagements via social media forums including Whatsapp, Twitter, and Facebook among others to boost their ill-fated mobilization.

Explaining the means to be used, the source revealed that NUP throughout last week had been mobilizing telephone contacts of over 497 MPs belonging to other political affiliations including NRM, DP, UPC and independent among others so as to harass and threaten them against supporting the proposal.

The intended amendment stemmed from the proposal by President Yoweri Museveni where he suggests abolition of bail for capital offenders and suspects indicted over embezzlement of public funds.

Cabinet’s decision was however guided by the Attorney General Kiryowa Kiwanuka who presented a brief on the proposed amendment to article 23(6) (b) of the Constitution to provide that any person accused of committing an offense triable by both the High Court and subordinate courts, shall not be granted bail until after 180 days or trial commencement, or when the Directorate of Public Prosecution (DPP) discontinues proceedings, whichever is earlier.

The Attorney General also proposed that Article 2 (4) (b) and Section 25 of the Police Act be amended by Parliament ,both of which require a suspect to be released on police bond if not charged in court within 48 hours to qualify for the period as “forty-eight business hours”.

But to NUP and its radicals have since embarked on a spirited campaign to frustrate this proposal.

WHY EAST AFRICA NEEDS THE EACOP.

There has been recent claims on a motion of resolution by the European Parliament that calls on Uganda and Tanzania to stop the development of oil and gas projects in the East African region.  However,  Uganda and East Africa need the Oil pipeline following public reactions towards the negative motives of the European Parliament. It brings back colonial times, much as their arguments have a grain of salt, I dont think the the implementers of EACOP did not conduct Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). This was done and all aspects taken into consideration. And besides that, Africa at large is the least contributor to climate change. They (first world countries) are the biggest contributors-they are burning fossil fuels like coal which contribute heavily to climate change.  They have refused to stop their use, they should tackle that First, before they start extending their concerns to us. We need this pipeline as a region, we should just look at ensuring its...

He smokes and meets his associate, Erik Vander Zanden a Dutch who mobilizes Ugandans that live in Amsterdam to support Bobi wine and the NUP struggle from Sloterdijk.

According to a leaked dossier, H.E Natalie Brown, the US ambassador to Uganda like her predecessor H.E Deborah Malac and the US embassy are on spot for recruiting and training youth in political activism to cause regime change in Uganda through demonstrations and uprisings. According to the dossier, the US mission in Uganda is running a secret operation to slowly and tactically cause regime in Uganda through mobilizing youth and opinion leaders under what they coded as ‘mind set’️ change programs. The dossier, states that the US mission disguises their activities under offering scholarship and mentorship programs to recruit youth who are trained locally and abroad in skills that can be used to exert political pressure on the government with a long term goal to cause regime collapse.  Some of the targeted members innocently fall into the recruitment trap by the US Embassy because they are unemployed. This secret plan has its roots in Obama founded initiatives like th...
