BUT WHY?? How Ssegona Was Denied NUP Ticket Even After Bowing Down Before Bobi Wine & Repenting For His Sins

In a surprising turn of events, Lawyer Medard Ssegona has been denied the National Unity Platform (NUP) ticket for Busiro East County, despite publicly kneeling before party president Bobi Wine and apologizing. Many supporters of Ssegona are left shocked and questioning the fairness of the decision.

Ssegona’s public act of humility was widely reported. He went down on his knees before Bobi Wine and expressed regret for past actions that may have strained his relationship with the party leadership. This gesture was seen by many as a sincere effort to reconcile and demonstrate loyalty to NUP.

Despite these efforts, the party decided to give the nomination to Musician Mathias Walukaga, who is also the current Kyengera Town Mayor. This decision has sparked conversations among political observers about the criteria used by NUP in selecting its candidates.

Supporters of Ssegona feel the decision is unfair. Many argue that kneeling and publicly apologizing to the party president should have shown genuine remorse and commitment, enough to earn him the ticket. The rejection, therefore, comes as a bitter disappointment to his followers.

On the other hand, Walukaga’s appointment highlights NUP’s strategy in choosing candidates with a strong public profile. As a musician and mayor, Walukaga has significant name recognition, which the party may see as advantageous in winning votes for Busiro East County.

Political analysts say that Ssegona’s experience and legal background could have been an asset for NUP in Parliament. However, internal party dynamics and strategic considerations sometimes outweigh individual qualifications, leading to tough decisions like this one.

Ssegona himself has not publicly criticized the party’s decision. Sources close to him suggest that he is disappointed but remains loyal to NUP. His supporters, however, continue to express their frustration on social media, calling the move “unjust” and “shocking.”

The denial of the ticket raises questions about NUP’s candidate selection process. While loyalty and reconciliation are important, it seems the party may also prioritize popularity and electability in its choices. This has left some observers debating whether fairness or strategy dominates NUP’s decision-making.

For Ssegona, the journey may not end here. Political experts suggest he could still play a significant role in the party, even without the nomination. Whether he decides to accept the decision gracefully or pursue other political avenues remains to be seen.

As the election season approaches, the decision to favor Walukaga over Ssegona will be closely watched by voters in Busiro East County. It is clear that NUP is making bold choices, and how these decisions affect the party’s support base will be revealed in the coming months.
