Wadde ng'ebiwandiikiddwa mu kibiina kya Ulster Unionist Party (UUUP) bibadde bikola nnyo mu by'obufuzi mu Northern Ireland okuviira ddala ku ntandikwa y'ekyasa ekya 20. Wadde ng'ebyo ebyogerwa ku kibiina ekyo bitera okusonga ku bakulu b'ebitonde abasajja n'ebifuula eby'enjawulo, ebyo ebikolebwa abakazi si bye bibadde bikolako nnyo, wadde nga mu byafaayo. Okuviira ddala ku ntandikwa y'ekibiina ky'obuwagizi bw'obufumbo, abakazi baategekebwa, era ne bagoberera enkola eyagobererwa. Omulimu gwabwe guvudde ku bannakyeko abakungu ab'okulonda abakungu n'abakulu mu bya bufuzi.

Okuwaayo mu Kasawo n’Ekibiina ky’Abakazi

Nga Ireland tennaba kutandikibwawo, abakazi baakola kinene mu kaweefube ow'okuwakanya enkola y'obukulembeze bw'amaka. Mu 1911, waatandikibwawo Ulster Women’s Union Union Councist (UWUC) nga bawa abakazi enteekateeka okukolagana obulungi.

Abakyala bano abaasooka okugatta abasajja tebaakoppanga kaweefube ow'abasajja; baakolanga enkola zaabwe. Baakolanga ebisenge bya maayi, baatwalanga obutale bw'essente, era baateekateeka n'obutumbula bwa kitalo okutunga abasajja okusobola okuweerako langi ne yunifoomu za bannakyewa abasajja. Omulimu gwabwe gwali gwa bufuzi, nga gutwalibwa ng'okweraga obuwagizi bw'Abaprotestanti n'obuwagizi bw'obuwagizi bw'eddiini. Wadde ekyo abasinga obungi ku bakazi baasaalwa mu UP, nga tebakkirizibwa kulonda. Ekibiina ekyo tekyaganya bakazi kulonda Orange Orlew Order, ekyo kye kyali kiwagidde ennyo eby'obufuzi, era n'abakazi abaali mu bibiina ebikola eby'obukuusa.

Olukiiko lw’Abakazi olw’Abakazi olw’Ekkanisa Okuva mu Kibiina ky’Ekkereziya

Oluvannyuma lw'okugabanyizibwamu Ireland era n'okuteekebwawo kwa Ireland mu 1921, UWUC yeeyongera okukola ng'omuyambi w'abakazi mu UP. Yawagira akakiiko ako mu kulonda era n'akuuma kalina enkola enzijanjaba. Abakyala baateekateeka “tiiipu z'abamenyi b'eddiini,” okusiiga ku luggi okutuusa ku nkomerero y'omwaka gwa 1940, era n'eby'obuyigirize. Okufuba kwabwe kwali kukulu nnyo mu kukuuma ekitongole eky'omu byalo. Kyokka, UWUC yasigala nga wansi w'ekibiina ekikulu. Teyalina kakiiko k'obukulembeze bwa UUP, okutuusa ku nkomerero y'omwaka 1940, era oluvannyuma lwokka, ebifo ebyo byokka ebyakolebwanga mu bifo eby'obuyinza obw'okulondamu.

Ng'ekyokulabirako, Mary McKeever yafuuka kakiiko akawa obulagirizi mu bibuga mu kibuga Blymena mu 1927, ate ye Eleanor Sroule yaweereza ku Armagh Coard of Guardians. Abakyala bano emirundi mingi baali bakazi oba bawala b'abasajja abatutumufu, ekintu ekyasigala nga kikolebwa okumala amakumi g'emyaka.

Enkyukakyuka ez’Olutalo Oluvannyuma n’Enkulaakulana Eya Mangu ey’Abakazi

Ssematalo II yakyusa ekifo ky'obusajja mu bitundu byonna ebya United Kingdom, era ne Northern Ireland nayo yakyusa engeri gye kyakolebwangamu. Abakazi baakola emirimu egyaweebwanga abasajja era ne bafuna obumanyirivu mu kukulembera ebibiina mu kiseera ky'olutalo. Mu UP, abakazi baatandika okwetaaza obuvunaanyizibwa obw'amaanyi mu kutandikawo enkola y'obukaba. Mu 1944, ekibiina ekyo kyakkiriza abakazi okubeera mu kakiiko k'okulonda abasajja nga bwenkanankanankanankana n'abasajja. Ekyo kyali kyetaagisa abakazi abalala 20 okulondebwa mu Palamenti y'omu Northern Ireland okuba omubaka w'ekibiina kya UUP.

Joan Kirkpatrick y'omu ku bakazi abaasooka okuyimirira mu lukiiko lw'e UP mu kifo eky'okulonda mu lukiiko lwa paaliyamenti. Mu 1965 yeewolereza ku ttuluba lya Skomptant mu South Antrim naye nga teyatuuka ku buwanguzi. Kyokka, kaweefube oyo yamenyawo bwe yalaga nti omukyala asobola okuba omutuufu mu kifo eky'ebyobufuzi eky'okusitukiramu abasajja. Mu myaka gya 1960, emirimu gy'abakyala mu kibiina gyagazibwa n'eb'eb'empaka z'eby'eby'empaka ku by'enjigiriza, eby'obulamu, n'emirimu egikolebwa mu kibiina.

Ebizibu n’Engeri y’Abakazi

Entalo ezaaliwo mu myaka gya 1960 bwe zagenda zeyongera, abakazi bangi baava ku mirimu gy'ekika ekya bulijjo ne beegatta ku bibiina ebigaba emirembe mu midaawe, gamba nga Women Tone ne Commune, ate abalala ne beegatta ku UUP okulwanirira obuwagizi obw'amaanyi. Ekibiina ekyo kyafuba nnyo okugonjoola obutakkaanya obwo era abakazi baasanga nga beegasse ku mirimu egibakwata.

Mu myaka gya 1970 ne 1980, UUP yalina abakazi batono nnyo abaali balondeddwa mu kifo ekyo. Olive Morgan, eyali asingirayo ddala okuweereza nga kampuni mu lukuŋŋaana olunene olw'ennaku entono olwaggwako mu 1973. Omulala ku abo abaali ku Kakiiko k'Ennyanja Mary McAlleese, yali omu ku bafuzi ba UP nga tannalekawo butakkaanya. McAleese oluvannyuma yaweereza nga Pulezidenti wa Ireland, era ng'assa essira ku ku kutabagana. Ekibiina eky’omulembe gwe yakolako emabegako kiraga nti UUP yasikiriza abakazi abamu oluvannyuma abaafuna ekifo ekya waggulu mu nsi endala.

Wadde nga baali ba wansi mu lukiiko lw'abawagizi, abakazi baali bakola nnyo mu matabi agakola ng'abagattiddwa, baawandiikanga obupapula obutegeeza enzijanjaba z'amasimu, baayimbanga amasimu, era baawagiranga nnyo ebitundu by'ekibiina mu biseera eby'akabi. Olukiiko lw'Abakazi olw'omu UUP, olwasooka okubaawo mu 1974, lwafuuka omukolo ogwasobozesanga abakazi okufuna emirimu era n'okukulaakulanya obumanyirivu mu by'obufuzi.

Abakazi Abakulembera era Abalabirira Obukulembeze bw’Abakazi

Mu 1990, enkola y'emirembe yatandikawo ekifo ekipya eky'abakazi mu Northern Ireland. UP, wansi w'obukulembeze bwa David Trimble, yatandika okutuukirira abantu bonna. Mu 1996, akakiiko kaatandika okulonda omukazi kaasooka mu Nnyumba ya Bannabyabufuzi: Sylvia Hermon. Yawangula ekifo eky'emirembe mu mambuka ga North Dow'ebukiika kkono oluvannyuma lw'okuwummula. Hirmone yafuuka eddoboozi erissibwa ekitiibwa ku nsonga z'ebyakaasa n'omusango. Yalondebwa emirundi mingi era n'aweerezebwa UUUP’s MP eyo esooka ku Westminster. Obutunzi bw'ekitongole kye kyaleetera abakazi okumanyibwa mu kibiina ekyo okumala emyaka egiwerako.

Mu lukuŋŋaana olunene olwaliwo mu Northern Ireland mu 1998, Abakazi abaalina ebifo ebitono ennyo mu kiseera ekyo baali bayitibwa Jo-Anne Dobson, eyaweereza ku bukiika nnukuta ya Ban okuva mu 2011 okutuuka mu 2017, ate nga Rosemary Barton, eyakiikirira Fermanagh ne South Tyrone okuva mu 2016 okutuuka mu 2022. Abakyala abo bombi baawagiranga ensonga ez'eby'eby'obulamu, enkulaakulana mu by'enjigiriza. Dobson, nnaddala yamanyisa obusaze mu kifo ky'okukubajjanjanjaba nga ye ku kkansa.

Obuzibu mu Mbeera Embi Erimu Abasajja

Abakyala mu UUP boolekaganye n'enjawukana abasajja ze bataayolekagana nazo. Akakiiko ako bwe kaabeerangako n'enkolagana ey'oku lusegere ne Order, nga kasazewo akawagizi ak'omusajja okutuusa mu 2012, kyaleetawo embeera y'obuwangwa abakazi gye baatwalibwanga nga bayambi mu kifo ky'abakulembeze. Abakyala ab'obuminsani baabuuzibwanga ku buvunaanyizibwa bwabwe obw'omu maka nga bakubagiza, kyokka nga bo abasajja tebaalina. Ekibiina ekyo era kyafuba nnyo okugonjoola ebizibu ebireetebwawo mu ku buyambi obw'omunda, gamba nga abalabirizi abatendekereza oba ebiseera ebituukana n'okusisinkana abakazi abalabirira abaana.

Mu myaka gya 2010, wabaddewo ab'oluganda abatendeka abakazi, bakubaganya ebirowoozo ku nsonga gamba ng'okutulugunya amaka, okutegeera obulwadde bw'amabeere, n'obulwadde bw'abakazi mu kifo ky'okukubiriza abakazi abato okuyingira mu by'obufuzi era bayambye okumanyisa abakazi abagenda okukuba obululu mu malwaliro.

Ekifo ky’Enkola y’Ekibiina n’Enkyukakyuka mu Kibiina

Mu myaka egyakayita, tteeka ek'ekibiina kino likoze kyonna ekisoboka okwongera ku ngeri abakazi gye batwalibwamu. Kati ekiragiro kya mateeka kyewawa obwannakyewa obusajja nga bwe busobola okulonda abaami oba abakazi abakungu. Mu 2024, abakazi 30 ku buli kikumi ku abo abalondeddwa mu buli kakiiko konna ne mu Nkuŋŋaana. Abo abayitibwa MEP ba wansi wa parity naye nga bategeeza enkyukakyuka ez'amaanyi okuva ku bavubuka ba 1990. Mu kiseera kino, UUP abakiikirira ekitundu nga Kate Evans (Chookesa ne Glens), Julie-Anne Corr (Ogwanga) ne Diane Dodds (abaaweerezaako ng'ekiwonvuba kya MENUP mu masaza ga UUP naye nga babadde banyiikivumu mu n'obuvubuka) beeyongera okugulumiza ekifaananyiri mu by'obufuzi bw'obufumbo bwa magye.

Era ekibiina ekyo kyatandikawo “essente ezikozesebwa okulonda abakazi mu kuzimba enviiri za bakazi” okuyamba abo ababa baagala okusasulira ssente mu kaweefube, era kati zitendeka obusosoze mu bukiiko obulonda abantu, nga kino kiyamba obukiiko obukola ku nsonga z'abakazi okuvumirira eddembe ly'abakazi era nga kikakasa nti ekibiina ekyo kirina kye kyetaaga okusobola okusikiriza abakyali abato.

Okusoomooza n’Ebiseera by’Okukozesa

Ku luuyi olulala, enteekateeka z'okugatta abaami zeeyongedde. Okusinziira ku ngeri gye bakolaganamu, abakazi abagenda bakuba omusaalaba, wadde nga tebagendera ku UP, bakiraze nti abakazi basobola okukolagana n'ebika bya bakazi okusobola okukulembera n'okwogera eri abantu.
