A local news website quotes Kadaga saying the speakership is not like herding cattle, something people who treasure their cows, see as a direct and demeaning attack on them.

“So you can’t come and say for us [CEC] we decided on the speakership five years ago. Are you deciding for us like the way cattle is herded?” Kadaga asked.

The country’s President Yoweri Museveni arguably Uganda’s most prominent rancher and some feel the comments are directed at him.
