Confiscated NUP Uniforms Worn at NRM Rally as Top Officials Present 'Convert' Claims To Please M7

Uniforms that were confiscated from the National Unity Platform (NUP) headquarters in Kavule were seen being worn by people at a rally held by the National Resistance Movement (NRM) in Kawempe Mbogo.
This has raised questions about the ongoing political drama in Uganda, especially as top NRM officials used these uniforms to present alleged converts from NUP.
At the rally, NRM officials claimed that several NUP members had crossed over to join the ruling party.
"We welcome our brothers and sisters from NUP. They have seen the light and decided to support President Museveni’s leadership," one top NRM official was heard saying.
"They know that the NRM is the only party that can bring peace, stability, and development to Uganda. We are happy to have them with us today."
However, it was later discovered that some of the people at the rally were wearing uniforms that had been taken from NUP headquarters during a previous raid.
These uniforms, once the symbol of the opposition party, had been taken by security forces in what many consider a politically motivated move.
The uniforms were later used at the rally to give the impression that these people were genuine NUP converts.
This move has sparked outrage among NUP supporters, who feel that their party is being targeted by the government.
"This is pure manipulation. They are trying to create a false image of support for the president," said a NUP spokesperson.
"These uniforms were stolen from our headquarters, and now they are being used to deceive the public."
NUP’s leader, Robert Kyagulanyi, commonly known as Bobi Wine, also reacted to the situation.
"We know what they are trying to do. But Ugandans are not fooled. The people who truly support us will not be silenced by such tricks," Bobi Wine said in a statement.
"They are only exposing their desperation."
