• Namyalo is known for giving cash and supporting concerts and influencers.

Hajat Hadijah Namyalo, head of the Office of the National Chairman (ONC) of the National Resistance Movement (NRM), is facing strong criticism online after gifting her five-year-old son a car reportedly worth Shs230m.

"Ugandans, especially those who are struggling and those fighting corruption, this is to let you know that Uzeiye Hadijah Namyalo, the Head of the Office of the National Chairman, has bought her son, Rayan, a brand-new Jetour T2 worth $60,000 (UGX 230 million). And her monthly salary cannot even buy a brand new motorcycle. 💔" Frank Mwesigye, a senior member of the Patriotic League of Uganda, posted on X.

"Hajjat Namyalo buying her 5 year old son a car worth 230m surprised you! Ask people who reside in kisasi - kyanja how they've suffered with her convoy," said a netizen on X.

Observers questioned the decision.

"There is literally ZERO logical reason for a 5-year-old to need a $60,000 Jetour T2, Hadijah Namyalo.Gavumenti elidaako egenda kubakuba amasasi ku City Square bantu mwe," Albert Katruguma, a digital media entrepreneur, said.

The development comes shortly after Namyalo unveiled a luxurious mansion at a high-profile event in Kyanja.

Namyalo has often given cash to different people, including celebrities. She has also attended music concerts where she performs on stage for musicians whose shows she has funded. Many internet personalities have benefited from her generosity.
