Col.Kiiza Besigye of Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) might have been married to Ms Winnie Byanyima for over 10 years but he has never eaten the food she has prepared. A source in FDC says that Besigye, the man considered to beUganda’s main opposition leader eats only buffets for fear of being poisoned.

The source says that Besigye regularly tells his pals in FDC that he trusts no body in FDC until the day he will finish the struggle to oust president Museveni’s government.  One of the private secretaries of Col. Kiiza Besigye says that Besigye buys the buffets directly from the restaurants. This source says that Besigye never buys the buffets at the same restaurants. The source told our informers that when Besigye buys the buffets at Nankulabye the next day he might buy another in Kajjansi.

At home Besigye eats food from only one person, Sam Mugumya. Mugumya comes from Rukungiri district where president Museveni hails from. Both Mugumya and Besigye are Bakiga, one of the pastoral tribes inUganda.
