Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine, the president of NUP has said he is ready and willing to appear on CBS FM to respond to what he called “propaganda” against his party.
Addressing journalists at party headquarters in Kavule, Kyagulanyi said CBS, the Buganda-owned radio station, has hosted people critical of NUP but it had denied him a similar platform.
“At least if it were possible for CBS to host me… because it is a kingdom radio and my grandparents had a stake in the kingdom,” he said.
Kyagulanyi said if CBS continues giving his critics a platform, it will be seen as a propaganda radio.
CBS hosts Abed Bwanika, the Kimanya-Kabonera MP who is a critic of Kyagulanyi on Saturdays.
Kyagulanyi fell out with CBS after he judged it to have gone soft on Mathias Mpuuga, the former leader of opposition, following the Shs 500 million service award saga.
It was the first time in months that Kyagulanyi was literally pleading to be hosted by a radio station which he and his supporters have previously attacked on other platforms.
Kyagulanyi was last hosted on a Buganda news platform, BBS TV last year but news items about him and NUP are regularly carried in the news bulletins of CBS and other platforms of the kingdom.
