However, Kakwenza revealed that their relationship ended on a sour note.

For the last 3 years, Ms. Anne Whitehead has subjected me to cyber-bullying by falsely accusing me of many things, including rape and abuse.

As the 2026 general elections approach, several women have expressed their intention to contest for the National Female Youth Member of Parliament position, currently held by Phiona Nyamutoro, the Minister of State for Minerals in the Ministry of Energy and Minerals Development.

She went ahead, together with bankrolled ghost women, and wrote to different organisations that were supporting me to withdraw the same.

This is the woman I once loved, and, requitedly, she cared for me when I was on the deathbed with dermatological ulcerations, PTSD, and broken bones from torture upon arrival in exile in Germany.

I was shocked at her jilted and irrational accusations, and the comeuppance of prejudice from many who only cared for the single-sided story, but I found it honorable to protect our child and the great memories we once shared, and didn’t defend myself, nor did I see any sense in speaking out against her toxic public manipulation.

I loved her with all my heart until things fell apart, and I respected that without exchanging recriminations.

She’d later use social media—the flopped Me Too irrational prejudice—to influence how the world would look at me, with an intention to destroy my career as a lawyer and an internationally acclaimed novelist.

She influenced two other jilted women in Germany to lie about me, but their allegations ended up with me being given adequate state compensation. Extension of political persecution—transboundary harassment of the Ugandan government.

I’m always pro-truth. Women, when you fall out with a man, it should never translate into rape, abandonment, child neglect, hate, or abuse.

Move on respectfully and live your life without needing to besmirch someone’s son. You can separate without needing to exchange recriminations. It’s called RESPECT before and after a relationship.

I remember once, when she had blocked me everywhere, I approached her friend, Martha, and offered £5,000 for child upkeep, and the friend said she’d consult Whitehead first. She returned and said that she had ignored her—that she was angry with me.

Women, courtesy of contemporary half-baked knowledge on feminism, have the orientation at the ‘irrational Me Too populism,’ but that should be re-conceptualised to align with logical justice. Either way, I publicly forgive her, and I hope that wherever she trades lies about me, they’re aware!

We are tired of prejudice against innocent men! When a man is a public figure, does it mean he cannot fall in love and have consensual sex, and cannot have freedom to terminate the relationship when it doesn’t align with his vision? If you can’t have a man, don’t destroy his reputation with lies!
