NRM MP, David Kabanda Cries Out After Losing Twitter Followers

Posted by: Eninu William in Uganda news May 12, 2022

Kasambya County MP Hon David Kabanda has come out to request social media platform Twitter to take all his followers at once.

Through his Twitter page, Kabanda questioned why the platform is continuously reducing his Twitter followers by 200 people daily.

“Please @Twitter, instead of reducing my followers by 200 daily, how about you take all of them once and for good,” he said.

However, some of his remaining followers told him the real reason why he was being unfollowed. They said it’s because of his recent political behavior which adds ‘no value to the country.’

Kabanda is one of those at the forefront of pushing the Muhoozi project. He even suggested the formation of a new party, the National Progressive Alliance (NPA).

He revealed that this should be led by Muhoozi and its major purpose should be harmonizing disgruntled politicians from different political parties for a common goal.

This is however something that has met widespread pessimism. And more especially from the Opposition and some of the NRM old guard.

“It’s not @Twitter that’s doing so. Ugandans have decided to UNFOLLOW people who do not add value to this country. My 13 friends and I are doing the same ASAP,” one of his followers told him.

“Hopefully you understand the Twitter platform is not the Parliament of Uganda. The same Twitter that verified you could eventually unverify you. Be mindful of your choice of words. Losing such a number of followers implies that you are losing popularity amongst your followers,” another said.

A furious Kabanda however questioned those still around criticizing him why they were still around.

“To all those shouting that people are willingly unfollowing me, why are you still following me in the first place?” He wondered.

The majority of Ugandans on social media are youths and many are dissatisfied with the current government. Therefore their only weapon has been punishing regime apologists via social media or social gatherings.
