November 6, 2024
National Unity Platform (NUP) member in parliament Hon Zaake Francis is currently in the hospital after he was punched by Hon. Akol during the parliamentary session.
This happened during the House’s reconvening to debate the controversial National Coffee Amendment Bill 2024. A video of the altercation has since circulated.
Chaos erupted in the Parliament of Uganda over allegations that foreign and unidentified individuals were present during the plenary session.
As an opposition leader, Hon Zaake has always been outspoken and he couldn’t keep quite after seeing people that he didn’t know in parliament.
When he continued to speak that is when Hon Akol Anthony representing Kilak North punched him over and over.
It is not clear what Hon Zaake is really struggling with as he is taken to the hospital but we will keep you updated.
Here is the video:
