NUP pesidential candidate, Robert Kyagulanyi, alias Bobi Wine, has called on Ugandans especially youths to unite in ending what he described as “one-family rule” in the country, promising a New Uganda where equality and opportunity are guaranteed for all.
Speaking at a rally in Tororo, Bobi Wine challenged citizens to take personal responsibility for political change.
“Every one of you can be Bobi Wine. It is not just me. Take it up. It is upon yourself, become the leader, spread this message, use your social media. Translate this message in your local language, make your grandmother and your grandfather understand it. This is for all of Uganda.”
He criticized the concentration of power in a single family and stressed the need for fair access to public services.
“It is high time that we choose whether we have champagne for Oboth Oboth or we have clean water for everybody, whether the children of Fox Odoi go study in Kampala and represent you or we have good schools for everybody. That is what we want to bring in a new Uganda, and you can make it happen,” he said.
Bobi Wine also outlined his vision for a unified and equal nation, free from tribalism and religious discrimination.
“In a new Uganda, there will not be tribalism. There will not be religion. We are all going to be Ugandans, and we are going to be equal before and under the law. This is the last time. This is going to be the last time when one family is ruling over the country. Uganda is not a kingdom. Let us stop that. Let us change that once and for all.”
He urged Ugandans, particularly the youth, to become agents of change.
“I have good news. We have been all over the country, and the young people are excited. The young people are joining us. I’m calling upon you to join us, so that we bring that new Uganda and we celebrate it together. Because it is possible, make it happen. Let us make history. Our generation can change things.”
The rally in Tororo drew a large crowd of supporters, reflecting the growing mobilization of young Ugandans seeking a shift in the nation’s political landscape.
