Mixed reaction over Bobi Wine’s new move

It was all smiles in the People Power Movement camp when Bobi Wine unveiled its regional coordinators on Wednesday last week at his home in Magere.

However a day later, opposition politicians especially from the Democratic Party Bloc came out to accuse the Kyadondo East legislator for making what they termed as a rushed move. They claimed that ‘People Power’ was a unifying slogan in the opposition that needed no immediate leaders. Abed Bwanika stated that Bobi Wine’s decision has made it so easy for President Museveni to crash the opposition.

Zari – Fabiola ‘cat fight’ overshadows new Beauty Queen

Over the weekend, Quinn Abenakyo’s one year reign of being Miss Uganda came to an end as Oliver Nakakande was crowned the 2019 Beauty Queen at the Sheraton Hotel, Kampala.

However, many individuals are yet to recognize that Nakakande is the new Miss Uganda because a fight between two city socialites Zari Hassan and Anita Fabiola overshadowed the event.

It is alleged that the exchange started after Fabiola introduced Zari as ‘mama’ to announce the overall winner of the beauty pageant.

Gov’t tables new electoral reforms
