Mubende, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT | National Unity Platform (NUP) Presidential candidate Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu has declared that his campaign is now being run guerrilla style.
Kyagulanyi who drove for over 30km from Mubende town on a bad road to Kasambya where he addressed his supporters for only five minutes and continued to Mityana, said that it is President Yoweri Museveni who chased them out of the gold mines that are now llegedly occupied by his brother Godfrey Ainebyona commonly known as Sodo.
