Former Intelligence Spy Master Chief, Gen David Sejusa, has warned the National Unity Platform (NUP) against promoting dangerous behaviour through images and acts that mimic the use of guns or bombs.
In a message posted on X (formerly Twitter), Sejusa described such conduct as “absolutely IRRESPONSIBLE” and directed his criticism at the party leadership and supporters.
He warned that pretending to handle weapons, even when they are made from banana fibres or toys can easily cause trouble in a tense political environment.
Gen Sejusa said, “Mimicking armed soldiers aiming guns from whatever point is very dangerous. Whether using toys or banana fibres, do not. Politics is serious business in many places of life and death. Why is it a game, a comedy to you?”
His remarks came shortly after NUP Secretary General David Lewis Rubongoya posted on X about tight security in Luweero, which triggered many people’s reactions. Sejusa appeared to respond directly to the post, suggesting that some of the party’s communication may encourage unnecessary confrontation.
