The National Unity Platform(NUP) leader, Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine has asked Chief Justice Alphonse Owiny Dollo to apologize to the Kabaka of Buganda and the nation at large over his alleged tribalistic remarks.
According to Kyagulanyi’s statement, “If Mr. Owiny Dollo had any decency left in him, the moral thing for him to do would be to apologize to the nation as well as to His Majesty the Kabaka of Buganda, about whom he lied and accused of flying in a presidential jet.”
The chief justice said at the vigil for the fallen former speaker, Jacob Oulanyah, that it was wicked for some people to protest the decision to fly Oulanyah to the US when the “ethnic leader of one of the groups, Kabaka Ronald Muwenda Mutebi, was at one time flown aboard the presidential jet to get treatment in Germany.”
In a statement released last week, the Buganda Katikkiro, Charles Peter Mayiga, stated the Kabaka has never used the presidential jet as had been said by the Chief Justice.
Kyagulanyi told Dollo’s unfortunate comments and that all citizens, no matter their tribe, must condemn them. He can only say to the nation what criteria he used to conclude that the protesters were all Baganda.
“As the head of our judicial system, Mr. Owiny Dollo should have known better than to collectively insult an entire community based on the actions of a few individuals who were not sent by or speak for the Buganda community.” “What justice should the members of that community who seek relief from the courts of law presided over by him now expect?” he wondered.
Kyagulanyi said by choosing to fan tribal sentiments, the chief justice was effectively diverting the country away from a conversation that was meant to establish the actual cause of death of the fallen speaker.
“Once again, I urge all Ugandans to pursue national unity as a prelude to long-term peace and progress for our country.” “The people of Acholi and Buganda have had a brotherly relationship for many years, which was established by Kabaka Mutesa II and his best friend Daudi Ocheng,” he said.
