Deputy Speaker Oulanyah cautions against violence

Oulanyah made the call while presiding over a thanksgiving ceremony organised by National Resistance Movement (NRM) treasurer, Rose Namayanja and her mother Christine Namirembe.

The function was held on Sunday at Kalagi village in Kasangombe Sub County in Nakaseke district.

Namayanja survived a nasty accident in 2015 at Kigoogwa village along Kampala-Gulu highway.

She was heading to a fundraising ceremony for the reconstruction of Buddabugya Health Center III in Nakaseke district.

Oulanyah wondered why Ugandans have become so violent to the extent of wanting to kill each other yet there are big things which can unite them to work for the development of the country.

Oulanyah also condemned the youths who are standing for nothing but money for survival.

Namayanja and her mother thanked God for enabling them to survive the accident.

Namayanja, who hails from Nakaseke which hosted the National Resistance Army liberation war of 1981-86, warned Ugandans against a repeat of the past.

She said that even amidst the age limit amendment storm, rival groups can still tolerate each other.

She was making reference to a constitutional amendment y that seeks to lift the cap on the presidential age.

Namayanja also used the thanksgiving to refute allegations that she is plotting for comeback in 2021 to contest for district Woman MP seat saying she had no intention after voluntarily quitting elective politics.

Pastor Samuel Kajoba, the Seventh Day Adventist Bishop for Central Buganda, region said that Namayanja’s survival  was God’s mercy and asked Ugandans to always give thanks whenever they go through such moments.
