Hahigi's Comments on Unemployment Spark Outrage Among SBC Youth

By Bwire Jonathan | Crown Media East Africa | December 16, 2024

A storm of controversy has erupted in SBC following remarks made by Daniel Sanya, also known as Smati Hahigi, a close associate of Nyagweso. Hahigi, in a recent social media post, dismissed claims of an unemployment crisis among SBC youth, asserting that "the youth are doing very well." His comments came in response to efforts by the SBC TOP Brigade to amplify the voices of young people grappling with poverty and joblessness in the constituency.

The remarks have drawn widespread condemnation from the youth, who feel their plight has been mocked. Many view Hahigi’s statement as dismissive of their struggles, with some interpreting it as a reflection of Nyagweso's stance on the pressing issue of unemployment in SBC.

“This is a slap in the face,” said a frustrated youth leader. “How can anyone claim we are doing well when the majority of us lack opportunities, and our families struggle to make ends meet? This shows how detached they are from the realities on the ground.”

The SBC TOP Brigade, known for championing inclusivity, progress, and development, has been at the forefront of highlighting the challenges faced by the youth. Their efforts to bring attention to poverty and unemployment have gained traction, making Hahigi's remarks all the more controversial.

Political analysts suggest that Hahigi’s comments could damage Nyagweso’s standing among the youth, a critical demographic in SBC. With the 2026 elections looming, such statements risk alienating voters who are already calling for leaders to prioritize real solutions over dismissive rhetoric.

The SBC TOP Brigade has vowed to continue its advocacy, emphasizing the urgent need for meaningful action to address the unemployment crisis. Meanwhile, the youth are demanding accountability and a clear statement from Nyagweso himself to clarify whether Hahigi's comments reflect his position.

As the debate rages on, the youth of SBC remain resolute in their calls for leaders to recognize and address the struggles they face every day.

Known for his controversial tweets and unconventional public statements, General Muhoozi has become a polarizing figure. To some, his actions seem impulsive and erratic, while to others, they represent a calculated strategy—what we might call the "principle of strategic confusion." The Art of Underestimation Military theorists, such as Sun Tzu in The Art of War, emphasize the power of deception.
