No- nonsense Arua Municipality legislator Kassiano Wadri has finally come out of the closet and revealed some of the reasons why he took a decision and painfully ditched Bobi Wine’s new political party The National Unity Platform to join Mugisha Muntu’s Alliance For National Transformation.

It should be remembered that Kyagulanyi and Wadri’s names became entwined in Arua on the evening of August 12, 2018 when the current presidential aspirant  joined the now Arua MP on the last day of the campaigns for the by-election of Arua Municipality.

Chaotic scenes that followed this epic meeting, led to the arrest and hospitalization of Kyagulanyi, shooting death of his driver Yasin Kawuma and prosecution of at least 33 people who were accused of stoning President Yoweri Museveni official vehicle

After securing a seat in Parliament, Wadri surprised many in the political sphere when he crossed to the Alliance for National Transformation party led by Gen. Mugisha Muntu, abandoning Kyagulanyi’s People Power movement which later ‘gave birth’ to National Unity Platform party.

In an exclusive interview with a local TV station Wadri accused Kyagulanyi of reneging on an earlier promise of joining one of the existing parties.

Wadri said, “While we were in prison, we shared a lot. We shared a lot about what we should do as members of the opposition. We said that when we come out, we need to work closely with existing parties.”

Wadri, however, said although he joined ANT, he still wanted to work with NUP in Arua but he failed to reach Kyagulanyi on phone.

“I tried calling the honorable Kyagulanyi on phone 3 times, I tried calling Joel Ssenyonyi (NUP spokesperson), the phone was going through but he could not pick, so what would I do?
