Don’t Be Fooled To Sign Baseless Petition To Taint Museveni’s Image — Minister Bahati

1 Mins read

State Minister of finance for planning David Bahati has cautioned the public against endorsing a petition spearheaded by the opposition under People’s Government requiring 2 million signatures to take President Museveni to the international Criminal Court (ICC)

His comments came shortly after the Opposition under People’s Government threatened to take President Museveni and others to the International Criminal Court in the Hague, for what they call gross violations of human rights and committing crimes against humanity.

“Besigye and his fellow petitioners have lost the hope of defeating Museveni and they are now focusing on how to taint the President’s image with their petition,” he said.

He said there are selfish politicians who are trying to use and mislead the country by deceiving the citizens for their own selfish gains.

He urged Ugandans to refrain from such politicians and put all their effort in developing the country.

“Do not be fooled by people who are fighting their own selfish battles. These petitioners are likely to come to you seeking your signatures in various ways but please avoid them,” Bahati said.

He said that the opposition is mainly focusing on destabilising the peace that NRM Government under Museveni has brought in place.
