January 22, 2021 Minister Florence Nakiwala Kiyingi is among the ministers who lost in the elections
In a stunning wave of results, all the 13 cabinet ministers from Buganda were defeated by opposition candidates, in particular those from Kyagulanyi’s National Unity Platform (NUP).
Results show that of Buganda’s 110 seats in parliament, NUP has 53, NRM 31 while 15 are Independents. Meanwhile, DP has seven while FDC has three. The humbling ends NRM’s dominance of the key strategic stronghold of Buganda. Four cabinet ministers, all of whom preferred anonymity, have intimated to
The Observer that the continued brutalization of Kyagulanyi and his supporters on the campaign trail swayed the electorate to vote against them.
