Ingrid Turinawe: FDC's new iron lady

Ingrid Turinawe is chairperson of the Women’s League in the leading opposition party, Forum for Democratic Change (FDC), but Ugandans know her more for her brand of courageous and cantankerous politics.

Already boasting of having composed and crooned a song, Turinawe added to her long list of pranks last week when she faced off with the police as the Activists for Change (A4C) kick-started the walk-to-work protests. Turinawe’s cunning plans that beat a security ring around her home made her an instant TV sensation. The same footage, posted on YouTube, went viral.

No wonder FDC president Dr Kizza Besigye told journalists last week that the mantle for causing trouble in this year’s edition of the protests has been handed to Turinawe. Another FDC strong woman, Ann Mugisha, who first met Turinawe after she returned from her nine-year exile in the United States in 2010, describes her colleague as “a very unique, stubborn individual” who is committed to her cause that she doesn’t realise what she is doing is unique”.
