In Mitooma
The minister for justice and constitution Maj. Gen. Kahinda Otafire has hit back at the words of his opponent and the MP Ruhinda county Rt. Capt. Dononzio Kahonda.
Maj. Gen. Kahinda Otafiire lost to Kahonda in the 2015 NRM primary elections.
Recently, Rt. Capt. Dononzio Kahonda held a thanksgiving where the speaker of Parliament Hon Rebecca Kadaga was the chief guest and some of other Members of Parliament including the Opposition MPs were also present.
Maj. Gen. Kahinda Otafiire said his opponent used the same ceremony to tarnish his name and insisted that Kahonda’s 4 years in Parliament is a wasted time to the people of Ruhinda and Mitooma at large.
Kahinda said that MP Kahonda should never claim to be a National Resistance Movement Supporter as he always takes sides with Opposition MPs
Muhangi Wilberforce Byaboneka, the NRM Chairperson for Mitooma district has also accused MP Kahonda and his diehard the embattled Mitooma district LC5 Benon Karyeija Boneza of telling lies to the people of Mitooma district in order to catch their sympathy.
Byaboneka said both MP Kahonda and Karyeija have failed to understand the words of Maj General Kahinda Otafiire where he used the word Rat and A lion and they are using the words to divide voters in Ruhinda Constituency.
When asked on issues of censuring the chairman LC5 Benon Karyeija of NRM and supporting the independent, Byaboneka denied the allegations saying Karyeija had issues with the district council and was censored by the councilors.
Major General Kahinda Otafire and Retired Captain Dononzio Kahonda have been engaged in a battle of words since the start of this year.
