NUP Secretly Builds and Unveils Eastern Uganda Headquarters in Iganga

In a surprise move that caught both supporters and security agencies off guard, the National Unity Platform (NUP) has quietly constructed and unveiled its new Eastern Uganda Regional Headquarters in Iganga Town, after keeping the project under wraps for over a year.

Located in the heart of the Busoga Sub-region, the facility is set to serve as a strategic command center for NUP’s activities across Eastern Uganda.

Party President Robert Kyagulanyi, popularly known as Bobi Wine, revealed that the low-profile construction was a deliberate tactic to avoid interference from state operatives.

“We purchased this land over a year ago and began construction quietly. I’m thankful that until this morning, no one outside those directly involved knew we were behind the project,” said Kyagulanyi.

“The police showed up asking why we surprised them with a visit. Well, if they had known earlier, they would have done everything possible to frustrate us.”

The unveiling of the Iganga office reflects what analysts are calling a growing shift in strategy by the opposition party, which is now taking more covert steps to expand its presence and safeguard operations amid increasing surveillance and political pressure from the state.

Leader of Opposition in Parliament Joel Ssenyonyi echoed the sentiment, describing the moment as a “triumph of strategy and resilience.”

“Just like our National Headquarters in Kavule, we kept this development low-key for the last year to avoid disruptions by the regime in their usual predictable ways,” he said. “We’re glad to have unveiled the finished work today.”

Kyagulanyi also commended the efforts of regional leaders and party officials who managed to keep the project under wraps.

Political observers say the move signals NUP’s shift toward more discreet mobilization and infrastructure building, especially ahead of the 2026 general elections. The successful completion of the Iganga project, despite tight monitoring by state security, suggests the party is adapting to a political environment where open activities may lead to obstruction or crackdown.
