Days after National Unity Platform (NUP) party President Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu (Bobi Wine) flew to United States of America to receive the Green Carpet Fashion Award, the mighty TV10GanoMazima has exclusively established that under unclear circumstances, his United Kingdom Special envoy who was on security radar also sneaked out of the country.
As TV10GanoMazima we authoritatively learnt that Faisal Mukasa (31) who recently graduated with a master’s degree in law and International Relations from Middlesex University London in 2022 has been in touch with Bobi Wine since 2018 mobilizing masses through political activism to bring political change in Uganda leadership.
Security preliminary investigation reveal that in 2020, Bobi Wine helped his henchman to secure a scholarship to study a master’s degree in London and directed him to use his stay in the United Kingdom to mobilize support for a change back home.
Mukasa was named among the influential NUP mobilizers that lobbied big wigs in British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s administration to lift a travel ban slapped on Bobi Wine in 2014 over his statements against the gay community in Uganda.
In 2024, Bobi Wine returned to the United Kingdom thanks to efforts by his international lawyers and other people who put up a spirited fight to make sure that the ban is lifted. The move was meant to strengthen his political struggle back home.
Security information shows that Mukasa was cited at Heathrow Airport among the people who welcomed Bobi Wine to the UK and he was among the few party leaders allowed at the airport. He also attended all the meetings his boss held with different influential dignitaries in UK.
Security claim that on 02nd February 2024, Mukasa got back into the country through Entebbe International Airport and has been holding different meetings with Bobi Wine at his Magere home and with other NUP leaders at their party headquarters in Makerere Kavule.
Security sources allege that the said meetings were about strategizing on how to mobilize financial support for Bobi Wine come 2026 presidential elections.
There is a lot of panic among NUP party bosses and they are now strategizing on how they can access their money that people like Mukasa mobilized and deposited in one of the international banks for use during the elections.
There is fear that towards the elections, Museveni is likely to freeze their bank accounts.
In the 2021 presidential election, President Museveni undermined Bobi Wine’s financial muscles and at the end faced a tough situation trying to stop some of his money from coming in from international funders.
From our deep sources as TV10GanoMazima we have established that intelligence discovered that Bobi Wine used bank accounts of some Non-Government Organisation (NGOs) and telecom companies to transport his campaign money into the country.
Sources added that it is because of these allegations that Human Rights law giant Nicholas Opio of Chapter Four was arrested and charged before the Anti-Corruption Court with charges related to money laundering while other foreigners who were working with MTN Uganda were arrested and some deported back to their home countries.
Sources disclosed that Museveni has already instructed Sydney Asubo the advisor to the Uganda Anti Money Laundering/Combating the Financing Terrorism (AMT/CFT) national task-force and the leadership at Financial Intelligence Authority (FIA) to make sure the 2021 scenario does not happen again come 2026.
TV10GanoMazima has also found out that on several occasions, FIA has written to banks and other financial institutions asking for bank statements of top city politicians, lawyers and members in the NGO community.
Security further claims that Mukasa is the contact person for Bobi Wine and handlers of American billionaire George Soros whose people allegedly agreed to finance Bobi Wine’s 2026 presidential bid through his Open Society Foundations.
TV10GanoMazima has also discovered that Mukasa’s bank accounts in Uganda are under investigation over allegations of money laundering and he is likely to face criminal charges once arrested.
It is not clear how Mukasa sneaked out of the country yet he has been on security radar since 2020 when he joined political activism with Bobi Wine after he won the Kyadondo East by election.
Uganda Media Center Executive Director Ofwono Opondo recently claimed that fights in Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) between Dr. Kizza Besigye’s group and Nathan Nandala Mafabi were as a result of misunderstandings on how to handle Soros’s multibillion political deal.
Soros established the Open Society Foundation in 1984 using part of his wealth to help promote the values of justice, democracy, and human rights and is operating in over 120 countries throughout the world.
Soros has on several occasions been accussed of attempting to overthrow governments. He was accused of attempting to oust Russian President Vladimir Putin, destabilising the European Union through mass migration, backing Arab Spring protest groups, and his Open Society Foundations has been branded as ‘agents of chaos’ by governments and rival groups.
In a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, in 2020, Soros pledged $1 billion to fund a new university network to tackle the spread of nationalism, according to a Forbes report.
