Members of Parliament
The National Unity Platform (NUP) has welcomed seven Members of Parliament who have officially joined the party ranks.
The announcement was made this afternoon at the party headquarters, in a move described by party leaders as a major boost to the struggle for good governance and national transformation.
The MPs who crossed over to NUP include:
- Hon. Luttamaguzi Ssemakula Paulson Kasana (Nakaseke South County)
- Hon. Joan Namutaawe (Woman MP, Masaka District)
- Hon. Nsanja Patrick Kayongo (Ntenjeru South)
- Hon. Nantongo Fortunate (Woman MP, Kyotera District)
- Hon. Lukwago John Paul Mpalanyi (Kyotera County)
- Hon. Batuwa Timothy Lusala (Jinja Municipality West)
- Hon. Isabirye David Aga (Jinja North Division)
NUP President Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu, aka Bobi Wine, expressed joy at their decision, calling it “a sign of courage and commitment to the people of Uganda.”
He noted that these leaders had demonstrated their readiness to align with the voice of the people and the values of justice, accountability, and unity.
“You’re very welcome home, our Honourable comrades,” NUP stated in an official message.
This development strengthens NUP’s growing influence in Uganda’s Parliament and signals a shift in the political landscape as more leaders rally behind the opposition party’s vision.
