Forum for Democratic Change party president, Hon Patrick Amuriat Oboi has said that its time for president Museveni to let other people run the country because Uganda has all kinds of capable leaders.
While appearing on one of the local television stations on Thursday 14th, Amuriat said the country is not short of leaders and as Forum for Democratic Change, they will be selecting among themselves a party flag bearer; it could be Besigye, Amuriat or anybody.
“We are not short of leaders, NRM and Museveni are at their weakest, everything is going in the wrong way in this country,” he said.
He added that if the population is given the capacity, it’s time to tell Museveni to let other people run the country and this can be done in 2021.
“The next election is to going to be business unusual, the population will be prepared. In 2016 the population was not adequately prepared,” he added
Amuriat said that the people’s government is a front to ensure that FDC wins the election.
If NRM wants to play tricks on FDC the people will say no enough is enough.
“You cannot threaten Forum for Democratic Change, you cannot intimidate Kizza Besigye who has faced every kind of torture in this country.”
He further added that to write off Dr Kizza Besigye would be the greatest desire of NRM but Besigye is very formidable and writing him off would be a political mistake.
He stated that Forum for Democratic Change runs as a normal political party while peoples’ government runs as a government and a government has a president, so people should note that FDC has its leadership and there is no contradiction.
