The suspended deputy president of the Buganda region for the National Unity Platform , Mathias Mpuuga has emphasized that the party president, Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine, does not possess the power to suspend him from his deputy position.

Regarding his suspension as deputy president, Mpuuga stated that he paid it no attention because it lacked a legal foundation based on the party's constitution. In late March, Kyagulanyi suspended Mpuuga from his position as Deputy President of the Central Region, citing allegations of corruption. Previously, Mpuuga had vowed to resist internal intrigues and manipulations within the NUP that could impede the party's growth.

On March 18, 2024, the NUP Secretary General, David Lewis Rubongoya, wrote to Speaker Among, informing her that the Party's National Executive Committee had decided to withdraw Mpuuga's nomination and subsequently recalled him from the position of Commissioner of Parliament.Speaker Among responded, stating that the NUP lacks the authority to recall Mpuuga from the Parliamentary Commission.
