KAMPALA – The leaders of the Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) faction opposing the party president, Mr. Patrick Oboi Amuriat, and the secretary general, Mr. Nandala Mafabi, have disapproved of the ongoing internal elections.
The FDC national council, held at the party headquarters in Najjanankumbi, decided to proceed with the party structure elections despite calls for postponement from some party leaders.
The faction leaders, including the party spokesperson Mr. Semujju Nganda and Vice President for central region and Kampala City Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago, declared the polls illegal due to a lack of support from the majority of party leaders.
They demanded the dissolution of the current electoral commission and the establishment of a new, credible, and impartial one to propose a new electoral roadmap for approval by the National Executive Committee.
Semujju accused Nandala and some district chairmen of handpicking individuals pretending to be FDC EC officials to oversee the process.
