Kassanda North MP Daudi Kabanda has stirred debate after suggesting that President Yoweri Museveni’s son-in-law, Odrek Rwabwogo, should be added to the “first family WhatsApp group” to address his concerns privately instead of through the media.Kabanda made the remarks following Rwabwogo’s public comments on national issues, saying many people have disagreements but choose not to air them publicly.“The Admin of the first family WhatsApp group should add Rwabwogo to the group, so that he stops airing his grievances in the media like the rest of us,” Kabanda said.
The comment has attracted reactions because of Rwabwogo’s close ties to the First Family through his marriage to Natasha Museveni Karugire.Rwabwogo, a businessman and development advocate, has frequently shared views on Uganda’s economy, leadership and development agenda, sparking discussions among political observers.Kabanda’s remarks have reignited debate on whether influential leaders should handle disagreements privately or use public platforms to highlight issues of national importance.
