The Inter party organisation for dialogue has cast the violence exhibited during the ongoing NRM party primaries as threat to democracy in the country.
Meeting the media on Monday, the secretary generals of the various parties, said the primaries were marked by a complete disregard of health guidelines intended to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
The party leaders want the police to act in enforcing the law.
IPOD condemned violence in NRM primaries where six people were reportedly killed.
The secretary general of Justice Forum, Mohammed Kateregga, noted that no Ugandan should die while exercising his/her right to participate in democratic processes.
Kateregga condemned the organisers of NRM primaries for failing to observe the standard operating procedures that were issued to contain the spread of coronavirus pandemic in the country.
Meanwhile, the deputy secretary general of NRM Richard Todwong, assured IPOD Summit that the party has sent a team of experts in villages to access the situation and all those who engaged in violence will be dealt with accordingly.
