Besigye And Amuriat Set To Meet The Press Seperately

The ongoing rift between Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) top leadership has further deepened. This can’t go unnoticed after the party president Patrick Amuriat and his predecessor Dr. Kiiza Besigye are set to meet the press seperately.

They both organized different media briefings on the same day which will happen today.

The two plan on addressing varying allegations against each other as the one-time largest opposition party goes into shambles.

Ibrahim Ssemujju Nganda, the party spokesperson, along with other colleagues, accused the party Secretary-General Nandala Mafabi of working with the state.

This happened during a national consultative meeting organized by a group led by Ssemujju. The party’s deputy president Erias Lukwago also joined him in the organization of the party without approval from the president.

Amuriat and Nandala Mafabi are accused of taking money from the ruling party during the 2021 election period. However, both parties have since denied these “baseless” allegations.

Amuriat will hold his press conference at the party’s headquarters located in Najjanankumbi. As for Besigye, he will hold his meeting at Katonga road and both will happen at 11 am.

In similar news this morning, the FDC (Forum for Democratic Change) party in Uganda is facing a critical moment in its history, as it grapples with internal divisions and external pressures.

The party, which was formed in 2005 as a breakaway faction of the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM), has been a leading opposition force in the country for many years. However, in recent times, the FDC has been beset by infighting, with different factions jostling for power and influence within the party.
