Kampala Central member of parliament Muhammad Nsereko has come out to unapologetically voice his support to the NRM government for arresting popular blogger and activist Fred Kajjubi Lumbuye.
Lumbuye was arrested last Tuesday at the Ugandan embassy in Ankara Turkey and was reported to be Extradited on Saturday.
Lumbuye is yet to be seen anywhere in Uganda but reports have it that he is in the country. National Platform patron Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine had come out to demand that the government stops persecuting political dissidents in Uganda and abroad.
However, MP Nsereko doesn’t want to hear any of that. He accuses Lumbuye of fueling tribal clashes and religious tensions.
In a live video on Facebook, Nsereko wondered why the NUP are working hard to secure the release of a toxic individual like Lumbuye who abused the Kabaka, Kattikiro, the president among others and spread filthy and toxic hate speech using his social media platforms.
“They were always silent when that bigot attacked us, attacked the Kabaka, insulted the Nnabagereka, the Katikkiro and attacked the Catholic Church. You have now seen them panicking to fly to Turkey to rescue him. You have also seen them posting on their social media platforms…..We cannot keep quiet. You use propaganda. You have no right to call for the murder of other political players and when you are arrested, you pretend to say you’re a political activist…. he ranted.
Meanwhile, Lumbuye whereabouts are yet to be known and it is reported he was extradited to Uganda.
However, the National Unity Platform lawyer and Kyadondo East Member of parliament Mawadda Nkunyingi says he has not seen any plane with Lumbuye on aboard and he has assured to block the extradition since Uganda and Turkey have no extradition treaty in place.
