Full Figure’s Latest Drama: From Presidential Advisor to Hospital Bed, But Who’s Surprised?

Kampala, Uganda: In a twist that no one saw coming (except, well, everyone), Jennifer Nakanguubi, better known as Full Figure, has once again found herself at the center of a storm—not for her political acumen or advisory prowess, but for being on the receiving end of a beating that has left her hospitalized. Yes, you read that right. The self-proclaimed “Full Figure,” who has made a career out of stirring the pot with her provocative online outbursts and crude attacks on political opponents, has now become the pot herself.

And oh, how the internet is loving it. The incident, which has predictably gone viral on X shows Full Figure, a Presidential Advisor no less, being waylaid and beaten by unidentified individuals. The video, which has been shared thousands of times, captures the moment with all the drama one might expect from a telenovela starring Uganda’s most polarizing figure.

But let’s be honest, is anyone really surprised? This is the same woman who has long courted controversy with her relentless social media tirades, often targeting anyone who dares to disagree with her or, heaven forbid, criticize President Yoweri Museveni.

Here’s the kicker:

Full Figure, who has built a reputation for dishing out insults and threats online, now finds herself on the receiving end of physical violence. “Karma’s a bitch, isn’t it?” tweeted @SarcasmUG, summing up the sentiment of many Ugandans who have grown weary of her antics.

The post by Tumwine Muheirwe, which includes images of Full Figure looking worse for wear in a hospital bed and a video of the assault, has become a trending topic, with users debating whether this is a case of poetic justice or a sad commentary on the state of political discourse in Uganda. Some have even gone as far as to suggest that this incident is a direct result of her own behavior.

“She insults people daily, and now she’s surprised when someone decides to respond in kind?” wrote @NoMoreDrama, a view that, while controversial, has found traction among those tired of her online belligerence. Others, however, have pointed out the hypocrisy of celebrating violence, no matter the target. “Violence is never the answer, but let’s not pretend she didn’t ask for trouble,” tweeted @MixedFeelingsUG, capturing the mixed emotions swirling around the incident.

The Bigger Picture:

Let’s step back for a moment and consider the bigger picture. Here we have a Presidential Advisor, someone ostensibly tasked with providing counsel and support to the highest office in the land, who has now become a cautionary tale about the dangers of unchecked online behavior. It’s a satirical goldmine, really.

Full Figure, who has long positioned herself as a champion of the people (or at least those who agree with her), has now become a symbol of the very divisiveness and intolerance she claims to fight against. And yet, despite the absurdity of it all, there is a underlying sadness to this story. The attack on Full Figure, regardless of her past actions, is a stark reminder of the escalating political violence in Uganda, where disagreements are increasingly settled not with words, but with fists. It’s a commentary on a society where public figures are not safe, and where the line between political discourse and personal vendettas has blurred beyond recognition.

As Full Figure recovers in the hospital, one can’t help but wonder if this will be a turning point for her. Will she reflect on her actions and perhaps tone down the vitriol? Or will she double down, as she so often does, and blame everyone else for her misfortunes? Only time will tell. But for now, Ugandans are left to laugh, cry, and shake their heads at the latest chapter in the saga of Full Figure—a woman who, love her or hate her, knows how to keep the nation talking. Because, like she said, ‘Am not a food!’
