The president of the National Unity Platform, Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi wine has said from the day his party was unveiled the regime has been in the state of panic because of the massive support they have received from the millions of Ugandans.His remarks come shortly after a one James Byamukama wrote to electoral commission complaining about the legality of the change of the name, colours and symbols of the party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, according to the Kyagulanyi ,this the Party which has existed for all these years and no body has ever raised any complaint.\u00a0He said the regime is trying to clutch onto anything that will save it from the inevitable collapse and embarrassment that awaits it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00a0
“When we tried to reserve the name ‘People Power’ in 2019, we found that the regime had deployed its apologists to reserve the name so as to block us from registering a Political Party,”Bobi wine said in a statement.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said this kind of development should not be a shock to Ugandans because on several occasions they set out to do consultations as guaranteed by the laws of this land and under the very eye of the electoral commission,unfortunately their activities were blocked and frustrated.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We had been doing all processes legally but quietly for some months,”he said adding that the thousands of people, including leaders who have been flocking their offices to register have scared the hell out of the regime.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kyagulanyi further explained that the day they filed papers at the EC\u00a0 informing the commission of the new leadership of the party, President Museveni immediately sacked key people at the Electoral Commission.He also cited the war of colours between his party and Uganda People’s Congress as one of the move aimed at frustrating their effort to cause change in this country.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The changes which have been made in the recent months have all been done in full compliance with all provisions of the Party Constitution and other laws.They have been approved and gazetted by the Commission itself,” Kyagulanyi said.\u00a0He added that,”Now, because Kyagulanyi is Party President and they are seeing how much support we are receiving across the nation, they will use all sorts of people to file bogus cases and do all manner of things.”\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said that they have even received\u00a0 information that EC is doctoring some documents on the file and meetings are sitting every day, to find any avenue through which they can cut down their\u00a0 momentum.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
