1626369166440644610 | There is no right side to take in the @nssfug saga. @rpbyaru is over retirement age and we should normalise retirement. Ug has other competent managers. Plus lots of corruption allegations under his tenure. @AnitahAmong represents a mafia govt looking to misuse workers savings. | 1 |
1624667964665364480 | During mass this morning I said a little prayer for Richard Byarugaba. Can’t imagine the fun those CID cops are having rummaging through his phone. He’s been violated bambi. @rpbyaru @nssfug @SpireJim @SimonKaggwaNjal | 1 |

1624795751208431618 | @nssfug @rpbyaru @AyotaPatrickDears,I am proud of your good work. In the same way, please consider investments in the health sector and banking. Build an hospital at international standards, as well starting a commercial bank like the former UCB. Thank you | 0 |
1624891897826115584 | @rpbyaru Let go & Let God🙏. Just asking, how does the fund loan out 20billion without collateral? All loans seem not to have collateral attached. Instead buying shares into failed startups. Watched a few clips & honestly a little dissapointed. | 0 |

1625023910554083330 | @StellaKanyike Wasting more of our money. @rpbyaru should resign - we are tired of these people misusing our money. We don’t even know if our money is still there | 3 |
1624480847234564096 | .. gave him can tell how how much of their recruitment is done. I still didnt think it was this bad. This is an absolute shame. I hope one day @rpbyaru can explain himself on all these things that happened under his watch. | 2 |
1628026147127586818 | @Kamagara7 @IvanKaahwa @job_matua @nssfug @IGGUganda @IGGBetiKamya @rpbyaru Ihave fought Byarugaba for many years on principles on liberalisation we defeated him ,on midterm access also defeated him and got the law , this time around it was Ministers war with Byarugaba it had nothing to do with workers interests but personal idont fight people wars | 2 |
1624547127656423426 | @aliza_pearl @samagona @rpbyaru @ericlubega @nssfug He seems attached to this baby and considers it his own (read: Legacy) and feels not about to leave it to the dogs. It's a pandemic, in almost all local institutions/MDAs. Nevertheless, the so-called historical culture they cited all through the probe needs to be reformed. Tuffa! | 2 |
