Banyakigezi Chairperson Clears Air On Media Reports

Posted by: Kyeyune Andrew Jonathan in Uganda news December 31, 2022

Some media reports recently made accusations against the Chairperson of the International Committee of the Banyakigezi Uganda Chapter, Ms Grace Mugabiirwe Mutebile. The accusations include lobbying for government jobs along with others. However, Ms. Mutebile came out and publicly denied all these allegations calling them media stunts.

The accusations happened after a 2-day conference held at in Kabale by the Banyakigezi Uganda chapter at the National Teacher’s College. Reports from there showed that Ms. Mutebile had lobbied for jobs and accused NRM of dropping their children. She apparently also demanded that Kigezi gets due diligence when it comes to appointments.

To clear the air, she said that she only thanked the president in her speech for loving Kigezi. On top of that, she recognized how the area has had high positions in government in the past.

She mentioned some positions being Prime Minister and Governor Bank of Uganda and several others as Banyakigezi.

She noted that some of these children have since passed on to the next life and others are not in government anymore. This means that Kigezi doesn’t hold these positions anymore and she only requests the president to consider Kigezi again.

Furthermore, she trashed the rumor that IOCB is an organization belonging to the opposition. She informed those who had gathered that the president is a Munyakigezi Number 1 and that he joined the group in 2009. She also warned those who use the media to spread false information which taints the image of the government.
