The Grind – Patrick Kamara hosts Erias Lukwago
A tenure of 15 years is soon coming to an end. In about a month and a half, Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago will officially exit City Hall, Kampala’s administrative chambers.
This follows his defeat in the recent elections, where he came third and graciously accepted the decision of the voters in Kampala, who had entrusted him with the office since 2011.
As he marches out of the Mayor’s Parlor, Lukwago—a renowned lawyer who has been at the center of many opposition activism campaigns—has no regrets. Instead, he expresses gratitude to the city dwellers who entrusted him with the authority to preside over Kampala’s affairs, a city with five political administrative divisions.
In this episode of The Grind with Patrick Kamara, the human rights defender and acting President of the People’s Front for Freedom—a new political party—says that although he is stepping away from leadership at City Hall, he is not done yet. The 55-year-old tells the host that he will not hang up his boots in the fight for good governance in Uganda.
