Leaders in Nakaseke District have urged voters to reject Local Council I (LC I) candidates implicated in land grabbing, saying the integrity of village leaders is critical to protecting communities and ensuring effective implementation of government programmes.
The call was made by Nakaseke Central MP and State Minister for Kampala Metropolitan Affairs, Joseph Kabuye Kyofatogabye, and Nakaseke South MP Charles Nsereko Basajjassubi ahead of the nationwide Local Council I and II chairperson elections scheduled for July 28.
Kyofatogabye said LC I chairpersons are the first point of contact between government and citizens, playing a vital role in implementing and monitoring government programmes at the village level.
He, however, expressed concern that some LC I chairpersons have been implicated in facilitating land grabbing by acting as witnesses or brokers in fraudulent land transactions. According to the minister, such leaders have betrayed the trust placed in them by their communities and should not be re-elected. He urged residents to elect honest, humble and principled leaders who will defend community interests and serve with integrity.
Kyofatogabye also noted that as government continues to decentralise services to the village level, the integrity and accountability of local leaders will become even more important. Basajjassubi echoed the call, saying LC I chairpersons are the leaders closest to the people and should be individuals committed to serving their communities rather than exploiting them.
Although official campaigns for the Local Council I elections are scheduled to run from July 20 to July 27, candidates across Nakaseke District’s 472 villages have already intensified their campaigns ahead of polling day.
Land disputes remain one of the district’s biggest challenges, with some LC I chairpersons accused of benefiting from contested land transactions.
The issue has emerged as a key campaign theme and is expected to influence voting in many villages.
The two legislators made the remarks during the inauguration and blessing of Our Lady of Consolata Catholic Parish, Kapeeka on Saturday. Presiding over the ceremony, Lawrence Mukasa commended Christians and well-wishers for supporting the construction of the parish.
He encouraged the faithful to continue contributing to church programmes and development initiatives to strengthen the Church’s pastoral, education, healthcare and community outreach services.
Our Lady of Consolata Catholic Parish is one of the 32 parishes under the Kasana-Luweero Diocese. Bishop Mukasa noted that the establishment of parishes has contributed to social and economic development in many communities through investments in schools, health facilities and other community programmes.

Eighteen people were killed on Friday, and several others injured as fierce fighting between the March 23 Movement rebels and a coalition of Twirwaneho and the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (FARDC) army and coalition of Wazalendo intensifies in Fizi Territory, South Kivu Province.
According to residents, the casualties occurred after a drone-dropped bomb struck Mulima Village in Basilocha Groupement during the morning hours. Fizi Territory Administrator, Samy Badibanga says on Saturday that the dead and injured included women and children. He also says that the explosion killed livestock and damaged a school in the area.
He says the fighting triggered a fresh wave of displacement, forcing residents to flee to the centres of Baraka, Kananda, Mukera, Kichoula, and Lumania. On Friday, intense clashes were reported near Kaziba in the Mubugu, Kange, and Namubula highlands. On Saturday, the M23/AFC rebels and their Twirwaneho allies claimed to have captured Point Zero, a strategic hill in Fizi Territory that controls key routes linking the highland town of Minembwe, the Mwenga Highlands, and the lakeside town of Baraka along National Road No. 5.
M23/AFC says its armed campaign is aimed at addressing corruption, xenophobia, and discrimination against certain communities in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
In early 2025, the movement launched a rapid offensive across eastern DRC, capturing several strategic towns and escalating concerns over a wider regional conflict.
The ultratraditionalist Society of St. Pius X has defied Pope Leo XIV by consecrating four bishops without his consent at its seminary in Econe, Switzerland. The move incurred an automatic excommunication for the bishops involved, and amounted to a “schismatic act” — or a willful rupture of unity in the Catholic Church.
The society, known by its acronym SSPX, was founded in opposition to the modernizing reforms of the Second Vatican Council. Among other things, the 1960s church meetings revolutionized the Catholic Church’s relations with other Christians, Jews and people of other faiths, and allowed Mass to be celebrated in the vernacular rather than Latin.
In 1975, the SSPX founder, Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, was suspended and the society was suppressed by the Vatican.
In 1988, Lefebvre consecrated four bishops without papal consent. The Vatican promptly excommunicated Lefebvre and the four other bishops, and the group today still has no legal status in the church.

Despite that original schismatic act, the group has continued to grow and today poses a threat to the Holy See since it represents a parallel, ultra-Catholic, pre-Vatican II church. The SSPX counts two bishops, 751 priests, 264 seminarians training in five seminaries, 145 religious brothers, 88 oblates and 250 religious sisters representing 50 nationalities, according to SSPX statistics.
An automatic excommunication for a schismatic act
Under the church’s in-house canon law, consecrating a bishop without papal consent incurs an automatic excommunication for both the people administering the consecration and the bishops receiving it.
The Vatican doesn’t have to declare the excommunications or issue a decree: It happens automatically. But some experts believe the Holy See wanted to respond publicly in some form since the SSPX made such a public show of the consecrations.
Excommunication is the harshest penalty under canon law. It is considered “medicinal” in nature, meant to teach those who incur it that “what you did was wrong and you must repent for what you have done,” said Fr. Robert Gahl of the Catholic University of America.
“The medicine may be bitter tasting, meaning that there’s a harsh feature of it because it’s a penalty, but it’s meant to bring about a change in the one who receives it,” he said.
The excommunication, however, doesn’t affect the validity of the consecration itself: SSPX bishops, like their priests, are validly but illicitly ordained.

In response, the Vatican’s doctrinal office on Thursday published a decree saying that the four bishops are excommunicated, along with the two bishops who participated in the ordination ceremony. Excommunication means they are excluded from the sacraments of the church.
It added in an explanatory note that priests belonging to the society and lay members who “formally adhere” to the group are also in schism and excommunicated.
The decree warns all “clerics and the lay faithful” not to formally follow the society as they will automatically incur the penalty of excommunication.
Pope Francis makes SSPX concessions amid crackdown
Despite his general distrust of traditionalists and a broader crackdown on the old Latin Mass, Pope Francis actually went out of his way to offer concessions to the SSPX.
In 2015, he decreed that Catholics could validly go to confession with SSPX priests, essentially recognizing as legitimate the absolutions granted to Catholics who confessed their sins to SSPX priests.
Francis had made the concession as a one-year gesture during his Jubilee of Mercy, but he then extended it indefinitely. He also made a provision to allow SSPX priests to celebrate marriages legitimately.
Experts say Leo could revoke some of the concessions that Francis granted the SSPX as part of the Holy See’s response to the new consecrations.
Pope Benedict XVI tries to reconcile
First as cardinal and then as pontiff, Pope Benedict XVI worked to heal the SSPX schism and bring the group back under Rome’s wing.
He made two major concessions as part of his outreach. In 2007, he relaxed restrictions on celebrating the traditional Latin Mass throughout the Catholic Church. And in 2009, he removed the excommunications of the four SSPX bishops.
The gesture, however, became an acute embarrassment for him and sparked a crisis with Jewish leaders because one of the four, Bishop Richard Williamson, was a known Holocaust-denier.
And in a television interview that aired on Swiss television just before the pope’s decree was made public, Williamson said he didn’t believe Jews were killed in gas chambers during World War II.
Benedict later acknowledged a simple internet search would have turned up Williamson’s views.
Williamson later ran afoul of the SSPX, which expelled him in 2012 for insubordination. He had ignored a deadline to “declare his submission” to its authority and had called for the society’s superior to resign, the group said at the time.
Williamson, who was ordained a priest by Lefebvre in 1976 and had taught in the society’s seminaries in Europe, the U.S. and Argentina, died in 2025.
Relations with other traditionalists
Despite his concessions to the SSPX, Francis enraged many Catholic traditionalists by reversing Benedict’s relaxation on celebrating the old Latin Mass for the broader Catholic Church. Francis cracked down on its spread, arguing it had become a source of division in the church.

While the SSPX is one fringe group out of communion with Rome, plenty of other traditionalists are in full communion with the Holy See.
Leo, as part of his effort at promoting unity, allowed a prominent American cardinal to celebrate an old Latin Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica last year.
In a final appeal to the group Monday, Leo had warned that the ordinations would be a “schismatic” act and a “sin of extreme gravity,” and the ruling by the Vatican is wide-ranging in clamping down on the group.
Later Thursday, the doctrinal office set out the steps needed for priests to be allowed back into regular church life, including writing personally to the pope asking for the excommunication to be lifted, Vatican News reported.
Priests must also sign a profession of faith and make a pledge not to publicly attack the pontiff and his teachings, as well as other conditions, according to Vatican News.
Leo has not commented publicly since the ordinations were carried out.
Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican’s secretary of state, expressed his “deep sorrow” on Wednesday about the ordinations, saying they “break the unity of the Church and incur very specific sanctions – fundamentally, excommunication.”

By Prof. Bismark Tyobeka, principal and vice-chancellor of the North-West University (NWU).
Twice I was there when South Africa was the centre of the universe. The last decade of the 20th century heralded the arrival of a nation poised to lead through moral example, as we pledged never again to repeat our tainted history. Today, many citizens threaten violence against foreigners, and once again we face becoming one of the world’s pariahs.
On 11 February 1990, I was glued to the television in my sister’s home in the township of Selosesha in Thaba Nchu, where I had just started Standard 8 (Grade 10) at Moroka High School. I had taken a weekend off from the school hostel and, together with a global audience, watched as Nelson Mandela walked free from Victor Verster Prison. Four years later, on 27 April 1994, I was in my village of Nonceba, where I cast my vote at Nonceba Primary School. South Africa opened its arms to all who live in it, and, in turn, the world opened its arms to us.
Now, 32 years and two months later, as principal and vice-chancellor of the North-West University (NWU), I am aghast at the danger of large-scale violence and disruptions aimed at illegal immigrants.
First, I want us to be honest. There is no place for illegal immigration. We have limited resources, and it is our obligation to look after and safeguard our citizens. After the recent spate of xenophobic attacks and the promise of more to come, South Africans are once again being asked to choose between two false extremes. Either they must tolerate xenophobia, or they must ignore illegal immigration. Collectively, we should choose neither. We have to acknowledge that when governments fail to manage immigration properly, ordinary migrants often become scapegoats for failures that belong to the state. This is just as great an injustice as immigrants crossing our borders illegally. Violence, however, is never the answer.
I want to bring the argument closer to home. My home. The North-West University. The word university stems from the Latin universitas, which translates as “a community united as a whole”. At the NWU, we have lecturers, researchers and students from across our continent because we know that major scientific breakthroughs cross borders, that we have as much to teach others as we have to learn from them, and that ideas have passports far more powerful than those carried by people.
Students become better graduates because they encounter people who think differently, and a university that isolates itself quickly becomes intellectually poorer.
In the public’s eye, the distinction between lawful migrants, refugees, international students and skilled professionals, and those who deliberately circumvent immigration law, is disappearing. When that happens, we arrive at the toxic situation we face today.
As public universities, I believe it is our duty to demonstrate that openness and order are not opposing ideals, but complementary ones. We thrive because we combine openness to people and ideas with accountability, merit and respect for the rule of law. International students do not simply arrive; they obtain the necessary visas. International academics are appointed through rigorous processes and are expected to comply with the same regulations and standards as everyone else. Openness works precisely because it is underpinned by clear rules that are applied fairly and consistently.
A recent article in the respected British publication The Economist states that there is ample evidence to challenge many common assumptions about migration. Foreign-born residents make up only about 5% of South Africa’s population, and research by the World Bank and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development suggests that migrants are often net job creators who establish businesses and stimulate economic activity. Studies have also found that foreign nationals are, on average, less likely to commit crime than South African citizens. These are hard truths, but are they widely known?
The word universitas reminds us that humanity advances not by turning away from one another, but by learning together. Yet communities also endure because they respect rules. South Africa does not have to choose between openness and order. We need both. We must reject xenophobia without reservation, enforce immigration law without apology, and continue building universities that welcome ideas from every corner of the world while remaining firmly rooted in the rule of law.
The colours of our Rainbow Nation are fading. The dreams of our founders are being deferred. The blood spilled in the pursuit of freedom has been forgotten, and their beliefs are being neglected and misused. More than 11 750 days after I cast my first democratic vote, the legacy of reconciliation over revenge and hope over hatred remains ours to protect. Let us take up a new canvas and use this opportunity to paint it brightly once again, so that the world may see that South Africa is more than a place on a map: it is an idea to aspire to.

The Public Procurement and Disposal of Public Assets Authority (PPDA) has finally broken its silence over the controversial Maybach [Motors] Ltd file, dismissing claims that it has deliberately delayed action against the prominent government vehicle supplier at the centre of the Chief of Defence Forces Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba’s ongoing crackdown on defence rogue contractors.
In a detailed statement sent to Red Pepper, PPDA insists the recommendation by Defence Ministry to suspend Maybach has already gone through the Authority’s technical processes and now awaits a final decision by the PPDA Board of Directors, which is scheduled to meet next Thursday, July 9, 2026.
The response follows Red Pepper’s recent reports into the widening anti-corruption campaign spearheaded by Chief of Defence Forces Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba, which revealed that the Defence Ministry had moved against a number of contractors accused of breaching contracts, supplying substandard equipment, delivering counterfeit goods and, in some cases, receiving payment without fully delivering supplies.
The crackdown has seen several military officers arrested, transferred, redeployed or sidelined, while a number of civilian contractors are also said to be under investigation.
Sources say Gen. Muhoozi subsequently directed MODVA to compile a database of contractors accused of breaching contracts or failing to meet contractual obligations so that appropriate action could be taken.
Under Uganda’s procurement laws, however, the Ministry of Defence cannot independently blacklist suppliers.
Only PPDA has the statutory mandate to suspend or debar providers from government business after investigations and due process.
It was against this background that the Defence Ministry wrote to PPDA to have several firms blacklisted and one of them is Maybach.
Maybach Motors Ltd, located along Ggaba Road in Kansanga and linked to businessman Wilson Kanyankole, is one of Uganda’s biggest suppliers of brand-new government vehicles. Kanyankole used to be a business partner with businessman Desh Kananura before moving on to start Maybach.
Maybach also sometime back faced police investigation involving an alleged stolen UK-sourced BMW X6 later sold to one Job Katuramu, which later sparked a high-profile inquiry into how the car was brought into Uganda.
Established more than two decades ago, Maybach describes itself as a one-stop automobile mall serving government ministries, departments and agencies, alongside private customers.
Its clientele includes the Judiciary, Uganda Police Force, the Ministry of Defence and several other government institutions.
The company says it imports and supplies vehicles from leading global brands including Toyota, Land Rover, BMW, Jaguar, MG and specialised customised vehicles, ambulances and minibuses. It also operates a fully-fledged after-sales workshop and supplies motor vehicle spare parts and accessories.
PPDA SPEAKS OUT
In a statement sent to Red Pepper, the procurement watchdog says the Maybach file has already gone through the required technical processes and now awaits only one final hurdle—the decision of the PPDA Board of Directors scheduled to meet next Thursday July 9, 2026.
The Authority denies ignoring or shelving the defence ministry’s recommendation against Maybach.
According to PPDA, there is only one recommendation from MODVA currently before the Authority—the proposed suspension of Maybach Ltd.
To demonstrate that the matter has been progressing, PPDA released a detailed chronology of the case.
According to the Authority, MODVA first submitted its recommendation to suspend Maybach Ltd on October 20, 2025.
However, the supporting procurement file and accompanying documents were only received nearly five months later, on March 11, 2026.
Maybach then exercised its legal right to respond, filing its written defence on March 24, 2026.
MODVA subsequently filed its rejoinder dated March 31, which PPDA received on April 1, 2026.
Following consideration of all submissions, the Authority says its Management Advisory Committee (MAC) concluded deliberations and forwarded its recommendation to the Board of Directors.
The final decision now rests with the Board, which PPDA says is expected to consider the matter during its next scheduled sitting on July 9.
‘WE CANNOT BLACKLIST PEOPLE OVERNIGHT’
PPDA insists that suspending government contractors is not an administrative shortcut but a legally prescribed process under Section 128 of the PPDA Act, Cap. 205.
The Authority says complaints are normally initiated by Accounting Officers before PPDA formally notifies the accused provider and gives it an opportunity to defend itself.
At the same time, PPDA requires the Procuring and Disposing Entity to submit the complete procurement file together with all supporting documents.
Only after analysing all evidence does the Authority convene a formal hearing at its headquarters.
The hearing is chaired by Executive Director currently Benson Turamye and attended by Heads of Department sitting as the Management Advisory Committee.
MAC then considers the evidence before recommending whether the complaint should be dismissed, whether a caution should be issued or whether the provider should be suspended for a specified period or indefinitely where serious misconduct is established.
PPDA says every stage takes time because complainants sometimes delay submitting procurement records, providers require adequate time to prepare their defence and the Authority itself must thoroughly evaluate all available evidence.
It warns that bypassing due process would expose Government to expensive litigation and possible compensation claims.
The Authority further explains that even after MAC completes its work, it has no power to suspend a contractor.
That responsibility lies solely with the PPDA Board of Directors.
According to PPDA, Board meetings are held according to an annual calendar approved at the beginning of every year and cannot simply be convened whenever a complaint arises.
34 FIRMS, NOT THREE
The Authority says by the time Red Pepper published its story, it had already suspended 34 providers, all of whom are publicly listed on its official register.
The three companies announced on June 23 were simply the latest additions.
Those companies are:
Okavango Logistics Limited, suspended for one year after substantially failing to perform a Uganda Railways Corporation contract involving rehabilitation of two passenger coaches at Nalukolongo Workshop.
Dita Limited, suspended for three years after PPDA found it had substantially failed to execute works awarded by Otuke District Local Government.
Uptown Incorporation Limited, suspended for two years after allegedly submitting unauthentic supplier/distributor authorisation documents during a Uganda Revenue Authority procurement process.
PPDA directed all government accounting officers not to allow the companies to participate in fresh procurement proceedings during their suspension periods.
The sanctions also extend to successor entities and businesses substantially linked to the suspended providers.
According to PPDA, no individual officer can unilaterally frustrate Board processes because MAC meetings are chaired by the Executive Director, recommendations are formally documented and only the Board has authority to make the final decision.
For now, all eyes are on July 9, when the PPDA Board is expected to determine the fate of Maybach Ltd—a decision likely to be closely watched by both procurement regulators and Gen. Muhoozi’s anti-corruption campaign.
Reasons that prompted the Defence Ministry to go after Maybach and have it blacklisted will be in our subsequent publication.
RedPepper also understands that Maybach is being investigated over the controversial procurement of 21 Toyota Prado vehicles for the Uganda Police Force.
Red Pepper continues to independently verify those allegations and will publish further findings once corroborated.

Kampala — The ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) Parliamentary Caucus gathered this morning at the Office of the President in Kampala to elect its new Executive Committee and choose flagbearers for Uganda’s two vacant seats in the East African Legislative Assembly (EALA).
The high-stakes meeting, which commenced at around 11:00 AM, brought together NRM Members of Parliament to fill critical internal party positions and nominate regional legislative representatives. According to senior party officials, the voting process follows recent directives issued by the NRM Central Executive Committee (CEC).
NRM 1st National Vice Chairman Al-Hajji Moses Kigongo (left) shares a moment with a colleague during the proceedings.
In attendance are top-ranking party leaders, including the NRM 1st National Vice Chairman, Al-Hajji Moses Kigongo, members of the CEC, and the NRM Secretariat led by Secretary General Rt. Hon. Richard Todwong. NRM Electoral Commission Chairman Dr. Tanga Odoi is overseeing the administrative and voting proceedings.
The two regional seats fell vacant after former EALA representatives, Hon. James Kakooza and Hon. Denis Namara, successfully contested and won seats in Uganda’s 12th Parliament during the January 2026 general elections. The successful candidates from today’s caucus vote will serve out the remainder of the current EALA term, which expires in 2027.
The internal race has drawn intense interest, with dozens of party stalwarts expressing early interest. The NRM Electoral Commission conducted a rigorous vetting process before forwarding the final list of recommended candidates to the CEC and, ultimately, to the Parliamentary Caucus for today’s final ballot.
An NRM source inside the closed-door session described the election as a routine exercise in internal democracy aimed at solidifying the party’s ideological and legislative representation both at home and within the East African Community (EAC) bloc.
Official results for the new Caucus Executive Committee—including the position of Caucus Chairperson—and the two EALA flagbearers are expected to be announced later today.
Watchdog Uganda is monitoring the closed-door proceedings and will bring you updates as the official results emerge.

Mistreatment of spouses, such as kuguunga (denial of sex); that’s a big offence.

Despite making the trip to the U.K, Ugandan artist Cindy Sanyu refused to step on the stage and perform for revellers after the event promoter reportedly refused to clear her balance.
The build-up to the 2026 Uganda Festival in London at Newham Leisure Centre set a scene of top anticipation on Saturday when renowned artists, deejays, emcees, and media personalities arrived in the UK.
Ray G, A Pass, Vyroota, Viana Indi, Suuna Ben, Kasuku, Lynda Ddane, and John Blaq, among others, made their way to the UK early enough, ready to perform for the revelers.
Cindy Sanyu also made the trip, but when it was her turn to perform, she declined to step on the stage.
Explaining her decision in a video cited by Mbu, the self-styled ‘King Herself’ maintained that she was not ready to perform before her balance was cleared by the promoter.
She stated that she had agreed to a zero balance before she performed and that the promoter kept on telling her to wait for the balance to be cleared until it was too late.
Cindy apologized to the fans who had turned up to watch her perform and asked the promoter to handle the situation better next time.
Ugandan socialites Zahara Totto Totto and Prima Kardashi got into a physical altercation on Saturday night in Lugogo.
As boxing enthusiasts gathered for the match between Regan Magumba and Reagan Lubega Canelo at the Lugogo Arena, they had no idea that another fierce battle between socialites was brewing.
Videos that we have looked at this morning show two socialites, Zahara Totto and Prima Kardashi, going at each other in a fierce war of words at the venue.
The two also threw hands before their respective teams separated them, preventing them from grabbing each other’s hair and something worse.
