KAMPALA - Lt. Col. Proscovia Nalweyiso has said
the growing agitation for federo in Buganda could breed violence.
Nalweyiso, head of the UPDF women wing, was speaking on State-run Radio
Uganda�s Star FM on Tuesday. She said she had been shocked by federo
agitators� threats to harm members those who hold contrary views on the
matter.
She cited Mr
Ssalongo Ssekidde, a multi-partyist and federo supporter in Ndeeba, who
Nalweyiso said was threatening people opposed to federo. �I heard Ssekidde
on one radio station insinuating that Wakiso LC5 Chairman, Eng. Ian
Kyeyune, was armed with a pistol when he was pelted with stones at the
Buganda federo workshop recently. Ssekidde claims that Kyeyune could have
been armed to kill the Kabaka. How can he make such an allegation without
evidence?� Nalweyiso asked.
Kyeyune and
former Katikkiro of Buganda, Mr Mayanja Nkangi, were chased from a federo
workshop in Lubiri on July 30 after sections of the audience accused them
of opposing federo.
