Budadiri West MP and FDC Secretary General, Nathan Nandala Mafabi recently joined residents in Mbale district to vend roasted maize in a bid to lure them into the opposition party as 2021 general elections fever hits politicians.
“If we want their attention, we must reach out and create rapport. Today, i joined my brother in Shikoye village, Bushiende Sub County in Mbale to vend maize. We made sales but importantly, they got the message of the need for change,” he said.
Reacting to Nandala’s new campaign strategy to attract supporters into FDC, many Ugandans posted on Facebook as:

If you allow me borrow from the fishermens’ scotch the river bodies of almost all sizes of fish (the “kokotta”) fishing technique, a technique usually deployed by fishermen to ensure no fish is left behind in the water ( in yr case as a politician,no living behind all you represent in various fora. Go for it my young bro’, not even sky can inhibit yr drive to serve the Ba’masaaba.Bless you.”
