Posted by: Eninu William in Uganda politics August 28, 2020

Opposition strongman and former Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) president, Dr. Kizza Besigye says that his plan B will entail fighting for all who feel oppressed in their own country.

Besigye announced last week that he will not be availing himself for the 2021 presidential polls, and that he will instead focus on what he termed as ‘Plan B’ in order to oust incumbent President Yoweri Museveni.

Kizza Besigye in his plan believes the power that was taken away from Ugandans by force will not be given back by the ballot. He said while addressing the public about the details of his plan B on Friday.

The four-time presidential candidate, urged everyone who feels oppressed to join the plan B. This plan would put an end to the 34 year old regime of the National Resistance Movement.

“It is a fight for whoever feels that he is oppressed. Ordinary people will have to be turned into fighters and we shall draw a line between the oppressed and the oppressors,” Besigye added.

The Plan;

“In this plan, we assent that the means to cause that change, to reclaim our influence is to fight. Plan B is a plan for fighting.” He said.

However, Kizza Besigye added that there is a whole wide range of fighting. This fighting he emphasized does not necessarily mean violence or going back to the bush.

”You can fight while sitting down. Our ancestors fought to get rid of colonial power. We have also been fighting for sometime now. That is why we have wounds. We have not taken out guns, but we have been fighting,” Besigye said.

Besigye says the country’s constitution, through Article 3, gives Ugandans a right to fight for their freedom if it is not being granted.
