The National Unity Platform (NUP) party, led by the one and only Bobi Wine, has unleashed a scathing attack on Mathias Mpuuga, urging him to take a dramatic exit stage left from his role as the former Leader of the Opposition in Parliament and cushy parliamentary committee position. Bobi Wine, also known for his lyrical prowess, declared in no uncertain terms that Mpuuga’s resignation is the only path to redemption.
Mpuuga took to the airwaves to defend himself on CBS Radio (Where else?), insisting that he’s cleaner than a freshly scrubbed potato. He brushed off accusations of corruption with the finesse of a seasoned dancer, claiming that NUP’s allegations were as baseless as a Matooke served without sauce. But Bobi Wine wasn’t about to let him off the hook that easily.
The plot thickened when accusations surfaced regarding a mysterious Parliamentary Commission meeting back in May 2022, chaired by none other than the formidable Anita Among. Rumour has it that during this clandestine gathering, commissioners helped themselves to a hefty chunk of the national purse, with Mpuuga allegedly pocketing a cool Shs500 million. It’s like a real-life episode of “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?”
In a move that left tongues wagging faster than a Kampala gossip session, NUP argued that Mpuuga should’ve given them a heads up before cashing in on his unexpected windfall. Bobi Wine, never one to mince words, expressed his dismay at Mpuuga’s lack of consultation, likening it to a slap in the face with a ripe pawpaw.

But the drama didn’t stop there. Bobi Wine dropped a bombshell, revealing that Mpuuga had confessed to his wrongdoings during a secret meeting with NUP bigwigs. According to Bobi, Mpuuga had his tail between his legs, admitting that he’d made an error of judgement and begging for forgiveness like a kid caught with their hand in the cookie jar.
In a desperate bid to salvage his tarnished reputation, Mpuuga reportedly agreed to step down, but then pulled a disappearing act faster than a street magician. Bobi Wine, smelling something fishier than a tilapia market, felt betrayed and unleashed a fiery statement faster than you can say “social media storm.”
Bobi Wine listed ten reasons why Mpuuga’s cash grab was about as ethical as eating Rolex for breakfast, lunch and supper. He argued that even if Mpuuga and his cronies had performed miracles worthy of sainthood, helping themselves to taxpayer money was a bigger scandal than a politician’s promises.
Bobi Wine whipped out the big guns, citing the Leadership Code Act of 2002 like a legal eagle on a caffeine high. According to Bobi, Mpuuga’s involvement in the Parliamentary Commission’s shenanigans violated more laws than a boda boda speeding through a red light.
In a final act of defiance, Mpuuga doubled down on his innocence, declaring his allegiance to the Parliamentary Commission like a loyal dog to its master. But Bobi Wine wasn’t buying it, and the stage was set for a showdown bigger than a presidential debate.
This political circus is just getting started!
