People Power, a pressure group headed by Kyadondo East Legislator Robert Kyagulanyi Sentamu aka Bobi Wine has today morning launched their students’ movement dubbed ‘Students Power’ and the same function also doubled as the official unveiling ceremony for People Power students’ representatives.
The launch was held at Bobi Wine’s home in Magere, Kampala and the event was hosted by Tundulu Jonathan (former Kyambogo University guild president) as the MC. Also present at the launch was Joel Ssenyonyi, the pressure group’s spokesperson, Chairman Nyanzi (Bobi Wine’s brother), Bobi Wine, Roy Ssemboga among other top People Power diehards.
Ssenyonyi urged students to stand against injustices while advising them not to use stones, machete or engage in any other form of violence.
“We are saying were are not going to sit back and see these institutions go down. Holding a placard is not violence, it is you Museveni who went to the bush and killed people. That is what we call violence.” Ssenyonyi said while commenting on the Makerere demo against tuition increment.
Senyonyi also confessed to the students that People Power has no money at the moment but when they take over government in 2021, they will consider buying Land Cruiser V8 cars (mpa enkoni) for them.
“Calling me boss implies that you expect me to pay you salary, Senyonyi told Tundulu the MC who introduced him as boss before adding that “We will buy for you the mpa enkonis of Kusasiras and the likes when we take over power. That is when we will afford to pay you.” Ssenyonyi promised.
The event is ongoing in Magere, more details will be published in the next articles.
