His Highness Papa Emorimor Paul Sande Etomeileng Emolot, the cultural giant of the Iteso people, has pulled off what many are calling the political miracle of the year: reconciling two National Resistance Movement (NRM) titans, Capt. Mike Mukula and Sanjay Tana.

The dramatic event unfolded under the proud banners of Uganda and the East African Community, as cameras flashed and hearts held their breath.

Mukula and Tana, once fierce rivals for the coveted post of NRM National Vice Chairman (Eastern) buried the hatchet with a powerful handshake that sent shockwaves through the political landscape.

“We competed, yes. But today, we unite as brothers,” Mukula declared, his voice echoing across a packed gathering.

Sanjay Tana, equally impassioned, added: “Leadership is a lifelong duty to serve. Today, we rise above politics for Uganda.”

Sources close to the palace reveal that it was Papa Emorimor’s personal diplomacy, a blend of patience, wisdom, and spiritual authority, that made this impossible reconciliation a reality.

Observers say it wasn’t just a handshake but a covenant pact sealed under the ancestral watch of Iteso traditions and the dream of a united Uganda.

Political analysts are already calling it “the Emorimor Effect, the rare ability to turn political grudges into national commitments.

At a time when elections across the country often breed bitterness, violence, and endless divisions, the sight of Mukula and Tana embracing sends a blazing message across the Country.

Papa Emorimor reminded Ugandans that leadership is not about vanquishing opponents, but about building lasting bridges.

The once-bitter rivals are now setting their sights on bigger goals including promoting national unity and political stability, championing youth empowerment initiatives, driving entrepreneurship and regional economic revival, cementing Uganda’s leadership in the East African renaissance.
