Member of Parliament for Kawempe North Muhammad Ssegirinya rcently verbal attacked NUP Deputy Spokesperson, Alex Waiswa Mufumbiro, accusing him of making inconsiderate statements.
National Unity Platform (NUP), leader, Robert Kyagulanyi also known as Bobi Wine has expressed his disappointment in the MP over the recent statements.
Kyagulanyi said the statements were divisive.
“We are all leaders within the same party, so exchanging public remarks only reflects poorly on our ability to engage and resolve such issues.”he stated while appearing on an online show.
“It was a disappointment and an error. Nonetheless, we continue to pray for his recovery,”
“I will continue to remind Ssegirinya that his actions are being closely observed by the public. We must remain authentic and transparent. I always tell my people that I won’t defend or conceal any wrongdoing. The public sees our actions, so we must prioritise the needs of the people.”
Ssegirinya said whereas he was ready to resume serving his constituents, the comments by the NUP deputy spokesperson were uncalled for.
“While I lay sick, I heard the remarks Mufumbiro made. I was deeply hurt. Everyone else in the NUP sent me well wishes, but Waiswa was insulting me. I have no issues with him, but I decree that he should never attend my funeral,” he added.
