    If Bafana’s Crime Is Related To Fueling Spread Of COVID19, Arrest And Detain NRM Politicians – Bobi Wine Defends Fellow Musician..

    Published

    on

    Kyadondo East lawmaker and National Unity Platform (NUP) Principal, Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu alias Bobi Wine has accused government security organs of playing double standards on individuals and groups that oppose the ruling government.

    The singer made the claims in connection to the arrest of fellow artiste Kasendwa Richard alias Ziza Bafana by government security officials. He says he is under detention illegally for not supporting Museveni and not necessarily defying COVID19 directives.

    “Our brother ZizaBafana is under illegal detention, ostensibly for defying Gen. Museveni’s directives on COVID19,” he said.

    Bafana and his colleagues went to sing in Tanzania and upon return, were quarantined together with his team for the mandatory two weeks. After 14 days, they were handed over to police instead of being allowed home as expected. Bafana has been complaining of mistreatment while in quarantine, including being deprived of food, harassment, etc.

    “Bafana’s real crime is in fact not related to COVID19. He says it is simply because when he was in Tanzania, he spoke about Bobi Wine and promoted People Power on stage,” Bobi Wine said, insinuating that Bafana is being prosecuted for singing about People Power while under quarantine.

    Bobi Wine insinuated that if at all Bafana’s crime was related COVID19, thousands of NRM politicians should now be in custody.

    “Many singers who have been singing at NRM rallies should be under detention. Gen. Museveni himself was in Tanzania on the weekend. It is very shameful that a government can treat citizens this way and punish them simply for identifying with a political leader or political formation,” Bobi Wine added.

    Bobi Wine vowed to not cease fire until only when his counterpart is released.

    Court was shocked when Controversial South Sudan tycoon Jacob Arok and his wife testified before the Criminal Division of the High Court Judge Michael Elubu how they lost their unborn baby in the deadly robbery attack on their home at Kawuku Bunga in Makindye Division a Kampala city suburb.

    Both key State Witnesses confirmed to Court that on the fateful night of 28th August, 2022, city socialist Charles Olim alia Sipapa commanded a gang that attacked their home and robbed money amounting to Shs1.65bn, 4 iPhones, 3 laptops, gold jewelry, an iPhone charger, a mac pro charger and a television set.

    Arok told Court that they got to know about the attack on their home the next day because they were all unconscious during the attack and they had to be rushed to hospital.

    In the Court hearing where journalists and other court attendants were barred, Arok testified that while they were in the hospital, they were informed that their unconsciousness was caused by deadly chemicals which their attackers sprayed in their house on that fateful night.

    He testified that both doctors and police investigators established that Sipapa and other accused persons also used chloroform which they sprayed in the house before robbing them clean.

    Both Arok and his wife testified that due to the excessive chloroform, the wife, who was pregnant suffered a miscarriage and lost the unborn baby.

    However, Sipapa’s lawyers led by Henry Kunya put up a spirited legal fight to dilute the key witnesses’ evidence by tasking Arok to reveal the source of the money he claimed that their client stole from his home.

    Furiously, Arok declined to reveal the source of money wondering why people were not asking why he was poor when was still a pauper in South Sudan.

    He refused to answer the question even though the presiding judge insisted that his role in court was to answer questions and not to ask lawyers.

    Sipapa’s lawyers allegedly told court that Arok was a South Sudanese Commissioner in charge of South Sudan Pension Fund and the stolen money was supposed to be paid to South Sudan Public Servants, but he instead used it to enrich himself and his family.

    theGrapevine established that recently, South Sudan President Salva Kiir complained to President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni that there are a number of his government officials who steal public funds and invest the money in Uganda.

    He pleaded with the President to repatriate such officials back to South Sudan so that they are prosecuted.

    Sipapa is being charged together with his wife Shamira Nakiyimba who recently claimed that she has been making deals with security bosses here in Uganda and abroad particularly in Dubai where she spends much of her time. The matter is still ongoing.

    Justice Celia Nagawa of the High Court Family Division has dissolved the marriage between Harriet Generos and Nick Chiles Muramira an officer in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs over adultery and drug abuse.

    In her petition, Generos told court that she got married to Muramira on 28th December 2013 at St. Augustine Chapel, Makerere University in Kampala but they didn’t have any children by the time she filed the divorce petition.

    She further told court that before entering their official marriage, they cohabited together in Kampala, New Delhi India, United Arab Emirates where she works from and Egypt Cairo where the husband was also working from under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

    She added that in Cairo, her husband committed adultery and fathered a child with an Ethiopian woman who currently resides in the United States of America.

    She insists in her affidavit that her husband also fell in with bad company while living in Cairo and he started abusing drugs and signing up to dating sites like Tinder.

    She further stated that when she visited him in Cairo, she found feminine items like make up and hygiene products that did not belong to her and during her visit she contracted sexually transmitted infections after being sexually intimate with him.

    “He abused drugs and during some of his episodes, he demanded that I also be intimate with him. He was withdrawn and often returned with red eyes,” she told court said.

    She added that she found stains of drug on his key holder on another occasion on his shorts.

    She insisted that during her stay in Dubai, she underwent spinal fusion surgery and although her husband was on leave in Uganda and spent millions of money purchasing for him an air ticket to travel to Dubai to see her, he never made any attempt to visit her much as she wanted to use the visit to rebuild their relationship.

    She explained that after being discharged from Dubai hospital, she traveled to Cairo to meet the husband only to be informed that he had taken school fees loans for non-existent children. On another occasion, she found out that he had a girlfriend who he was cohabiting with in Cairo.

    “I was subjected to various forms of torture including silent treatment, psychological abuse, rejection, ridicule and lies contrary to the principles of sanctity of Marriage,” she testified.

    She told court that during their marriage, they owned a number of properties including their matrimonial home in Bukoto Kampala, land in Mbarara where they planted trees to which she contributed Shs 4,000,000 and others. The trial judge agreed with the petitioner on grounds that the respondent did not file a defense even though he was served through WhatsApp.

    She explained that divorce can be allowed on the following grounds; when one of the partners has been guilty of adultery, has changed his or her profession of Christianity for the profession of some other religion, and gone through a form of marriage with another man or woman.

    Other grounds include; When one has been guilty of bigamy, has been guilty of rape, sodomy or bestiality, has been guilty of cruelty or has been guilty of desertion, without reasonable excuse, for two years or upwards.

    She noted that the petitioner has proved cruelty and Adultery as the grounds for her divorce and thus allowed the petition.

    However, on the issue of the matrimonial home which the petitioner wanted sold so that they share the money according to each one’s contribution during its purchase, the judge noted that she cannot issue an order against it since it was registered in the names of Muramira’s mother not in the names of the partners.

    She further ordered that Muramira refund the Shs400m the wife contributed in the buying of their land in Mbarara and also compensate her with Shs1.5m for the time she used when supervising work on the land.

    Muramira was also ordered to pay costs of the petitioner to the divorced wife and lawyers.

    National Unity Platform’s Lubaga Division Mayor Zacchy Mbereze commonly known as ‘taata Namuli’ has been placed on suicide watch as banks plan to auction his Mutundwe multibillion home plus other properties worth millions of shillings over debt.

    City Court bailiffs of Fineline-Strict Auctioneers have given Mberaze 14 days from 20th March 2024 to clear the debt he has which is in billions of shillings to avoid the consequences of auctioning his properties.

    “Upon instructions from our client, a financial institution, we shall proceed to sell the under mentioned motor vehicle, unless the(defaulter/debtor) pays to us the entire outstanding loan balance) principal, interest before the expiry of fourteen days from the date this advert published,” the Court bailiffs advert in today’s daily reads.

    Highly placed sources close to Mberaze told theGrapevine that Mberaze is fighting tooth and nail to make sure that he saves his Mutundwe home to avoid embarrassment especially from his political enemies who have already started celebrating his financial troubles.

    Sources claim that Mberaze mortgaged his matrimonial home without the consent of his wife and she is currently pressurizing him to save the home insisting that they are not ready to vacate the house to be auctioned.

    Mberaze’s financial troubles started in 2022 when he developed a misunderstanding with his deputy Rehame Fuge who was helping him to fetch money to service his financial loans.

    Sources said that Mberaze was told that Fuge is cheating him on commission in one of the commercial deals they sealed.

    When contacted for a comment over the matter, Mberaze said that he was in the middle of the meeting. He promised to get back to us to explain his side which he did not do by press time.
