Officials of the National Unity Platform (NUP) party and Commissioner of Parliament, Mathias Mpuuga, do not see eye to eye.
Stains in relations between the two parties came to light recently following a Shs 500 million cash bonanza at Parliament.
NUP accuses its member, Mpuuga, of gifting himself Shs 500 million. Mpuuga, on the other hand, insists that the money was allocated to him legally. The NUP maintains that Mpuuga’s actions are equivalent to corruption and, as such, insists that the lawmaker must apologize, return the money, and resign his position in the 11th Parliament.
Recently, Mpuuga and the Leader of the Opposition in Parliament, Joel Ssenyonyi, met at the Kabaka Run. Although the pair were seated next to each other, they all avoided looking at each other. This is summarized in the three photos below:
