Balunywa Hits Back: “When You Destroy Someone’s Life With Lies, Expect Interest

Former Makerere University Business School (MUBS) principal, Prof. Waswa Balunywa, has come out swinging at critics after securing bail, warning that those spreading lies about him will eventually “pay with interest.”

Shortly after his release, Balunywa posted a sharp message on his official X (formerly Twitter) account @JW__Balunywa:

“When you destroy someone’s life with lies, take it as a loan, it will come back to you with interest.”

The statement has sparked heated debate online, with some rallying behind him while others see it as a veiled attack on ongoing investigations.

According to the prosecution, Balunywa is accused of abuse of office during his tenure at MUBS. The State alleges that between February and April 2023, he irregularly recruited three individuals as administrative assistants without the required academic qualifications. Prosecutors say the appointments created ineligible costs to the government, forming the basis of the corruption case now before court.

Balunywa, a veteran educationist and outspoken figure, denies any wrongdoing and insists he is the victim of a smear campaign. His fiery online rebuttal underscores his determination to fight both in court and in the public arena.

For now, the case continues, with the professor free on bail but firmly on the defensive — and his words suggest he’s not backing down anytime soon.
