KAMPALA – Solomon Kampala, the eldest son of Ugandan opposition leader and National Unity Platform (NUP) president Bobi Wine, has publicly declared a firm political boundary, directly addressing subscribers of the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM).
The message, posted on his social media platform, was unequivocal. Kampala stated, “I know you are NRM or joyfully affiliated with NRM, unfollow and remove me as a follower.” He emphasized a deep ideological divide, adding, “We are not one. We do not agree. And we will never ever agree.”
His post, which carried the header “EXCLUSIVE BIZZ,” framed this disagreement within the context of the nation’s political future. Kampala suggested that reconciliation would only be possible with a “peaceful resignation of power or an agreement,” pointing to a fundamental demand for political change.
The young Kampala also echoed the sentiments often expressed by his father, referencing the suffering of the Ugandan people. He shared a personal and emotional connection to the struggle, writing, “The people of Uganda have suffered too much. I have sleepless nights crying for my people.”
Despite the current climate, his statement ended on a note of defiance and hope, concluding with the declaration, “But one day we will be free.”
The post is seen as a clear effort to solidify his and his family’s political stance and to curate his online audience to align with his opposition views, explicitly asking members and supporters of the ruling party to remove themselves from his followers list.
