Ssezibwa bridge which ushers you into the central district of Kayunga, gained fame in 2009 when security forces blocked then Katikkiro (prime minister) of Buganda John Baptist Walusimbi from entering the district, triggering off what came to be known as “Buganda Riots” in which scores of people were killed.
Eleven years later, Ssezibwa is, of course, tranquil, and it’s here that 19-year-old Brenda Nakaddu, who is vying for the Kayunga Woman MP seat, stood and welcomed Patrick Oboi Amuriat, the Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) presidential candidate. At only 19 years, Ms Nakaddu is probably the youngest MP contestant.
