NRM has released names on the appointments committee just before Museveni names his cabinet. This committee is the one meant to approve the cabinet members the president will forward. It works under the leadership of the speaker who is now Rt. Hon. Speaker Jacob Oulanyah.
Some of the names on the list are; Frank Tumwebaze this means he will not come back as a minister.
This list of committee members was forwarded to the speaker for approval. This was done by NRM secretary General, Justine Lumumba.
“I write in compliance with the rules of Parliament to forward to your office the names of 22 nominees of the National Resistance Movement to the Appointments Committee of Parliament,” the letter read in part.
This committee is comprised of not less than 15 members and not more than 20. This is the team that approves names forwarded by the president on behalf of the parliament. However, this list is received by the speaker on behalf of the committee. Any time now, we are about to know the different ministers of different sectors of the country.
This is a highly awaited for communication by the president. It is different now because things are not as obvious as previously. Most ministers lost in the previous elections. Some experts have already warned the president against bringing them back.
Most likely we are going to have the cabinet mostly filled with new members.
