We Are A No Nonsense Party – Patrick Amuriat To Defiant FDC Members

Posted by: Suubi Anne in Uganda news July 13, 2021

The Forum for Democratic Change party president, Patrick Amuriat has said FDC is a no-nonsense party. He said this as he was commenting about the defiant party members who stood as independents in the 2021 elections.

“In FDC, there is nobody who is indispensable because FDC rests on a revolutionary formation. It’s built on the sweat and blood and determination of the people of Uganda. We as a party are no-nonsense, you are either with us or not with us and anybody who chooses to leave will not rock the boat. The boat will continue sailing,” he said.

According to Amuriat, they have rules that govern them as a party. If anyone goes against them, they must face disciplinary action. This has come after the appointment of FDC party members in the shadow cabinet without consulting the party.

Meanwhile, other members including Joyce Ssebugwawo left the party due to a number of issues.

Patrick Amuriat says those who were appointed in the shadow cabinet should decline the appointments. This is as far as the party constitution is concerned.

“We hope that our members will be cognisant of the provision under the law in accepting not take up these positions.”

FDC party has slowly lost its spot to the National Unity Platform. Actually, some of their members ran to join the NUP train.

The party, therefore, has to do something from within before dealing with the outcomes.
