The National Unity Platform (NUP) Principal has reacted to the victory of John Mbaziira, who on Thursday won the Kyambogo Guild Presidential elections. Mbaziira who was on the NUP trounced FDC’s Trust Amanya.
Bobi Wine reacts:
“I want to congratulate our candidate, comrade Mbaziira John and all students of Kyambogo University upon this victory. Mbaziira is the new Guild President.
Comrade Mbaziira and all other NUP candidates in Kyambogo submitted pictures with berets to be used on ballot papers. The University administration without citing any law rejected the pictures and asked them to submit new pictures. These comrades refused. Like the Biblical Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, these comrades refused to submit to the illegal dictates of the University.
They decided that they would rather lose the coveted seats than do something against their conciense. In a clearly malicious move, the ballot papers were printed without their pictures but only their names.
Yesterday, the students of Kyambogo did the needful and massively voted for Mbaziira even without his picture. Not even his arrest on voting day stood in his path to victory. THIS IS A REVOLUTION.”
