Kampala Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago has appointed Dr Kiiza Besigye’s top supporter Nyanjura Doreen his deputy after president Museveni appointment Hajjat Sarah Kanyike Ssebbagala new director of Gender, community services and production at the Authority.

Hon Nyanjula Doreen is the female lord councillor representing Makerere University.

Democratic Party (DP) supporters had requested Mr Lukwago to replace Hajjat Sarah with Lord Councillor Kataabu Moses who is on DP ticket.

Reliable sources intimate to Whisper Eye news at KCCA told us that Lord Mayor Lukwago refused, on grounds that Mr Kataabu is a pro Bobi Wine councillor.

The source also told this website that Mr Lukwago was annoyed when Mr Kawalya Abubarker defeated Nyanjura on the post of KCCA speaker.
