In Mbarara

The crisis in Rwampara district over the interim election of the District Chairman and the executive became a heated debate on Tv West in the programme called Akadala hosted by Yeyediya Nyakahangura last night.

Kyamadidi told off Mp Ngabirano that he is the major problem of Rwampara and cause of failure to have elected District chairman of Rwampara.

Kyamadidi went ahead to tell Mp Ngabirano that he told people of Rwampara that they will drink him like an animal drug which is interpreted that they must accept him to lead them whether they want or not.

However, when Ngabirano was asked by the moderator at the end of the programme whether he really said it, he disclosed that he is an obedient leader to the people of Rwampala and he has never said it.

Rwampara became a district on 1^st July 2019 with Kitagwenda and Kazo but Rwampara has since failed to elect its leaders twice with councilors divided into two groups of three and four.

Kyamadidi accused Ngabirano of divisionism among councilors and other problems of Rwampara which he said are engineered by him (Mp Ngabirano).

When Kyamadidi insisted words on Ngabirano, the moderator tried to stop him but Ngabirano decided to let him talk whatever he wanted.

Magistrate’s court sitting in Mbarara has dismissed the case in which -the self-styled king of Ankole Umar Asiimwe Rubabansi VI was accused of promoting sectarianism.

Asiimwe together with four of his ministers Max Muhumuza, Joseph Kankiriho, Brenda Katushemerirwe and Wycliffe Amanya were all on seven charges.

The charges were ranging from inciting violence, promoting sectarianism and impersonation among others.

Appearing in court on 8^th August2019, the Mbarara grade one magistrate Sanyu Mukasa dismissed their case after the plaintiff failed to provide standing evidence.

Paul Tusubira the advocate said that the evidence brought by George William Katantumba was not enough so they dismissed a case against Umar Asiimwe.

Addressing the media after court session, Umar Asiimwe vowed to continue with his works of the palace at Itaaba in Kyabanyoro Nyakayojo division in Mbarara Municipality.

He also cautioned those who are accusing him that he is fighting government noting that they are aiming to tarnish his name

Polly Muyambi the spokesperson for Ankole kingdom said that this case has been in court since February 2018 and they have spent almost one year and 6months in court.

He noted that they have maintained the law and they will continue support the government.

Much as his cases were dismissed, the self-styled king still has a number of cases in court among them is assaulting his father Kaweesa Idrisa during New Year party on the 31^st of December 2019.

The family disagreements in relation to who is the right heir to the throne saw the Itaaba palace set a breeze and property worth millions plus traditional regalia were destroyed.
