By Fortunate Ahimbisibwe
UGANDANS living in the US have launched a National Resistance Movement Organisation (NRM-O) branch.
Former Vice-President Dr. Specioza Wandera Kazibwe has been elected the vice-chairperson in charge of business development. Edward Wanda is vice-chairperson in charge of political development.
In a statement issued by the branch chairperson, Godfrey Sseruwagi, the interim executive of the NRM-O, USA is to prepare for their participation ahead of the 2006 polls.
The committee was elected in Boston in June.Published on: Thursday, 2nd September, 2004
ps: I have it on good authority that Uganda's diplomats have and are making calls around the country to recruit members. (Even our local ESOs are in on the act, some could not resist "running" for office locally other have dispense with pretension and have simply nominated themselves.)
Besigye to attend America convention
By Julius Mucunguzi
FORMER presidential candidate Dr Kizza Besigye will today attend this year’s convention of Ugandans in the diaspora in the US city of Seattle, Washington.
An organiser of the convention which starts today, said Besigye was already in the US.
The source said former Army commander and a senior member of the Forum for Democratic Change (FDC), Rtd Maj. Gen. Mugisha Muntu, is also expected at the convention. It is organised by the Uganda North American Association.
It is not clear whether Besigye will make a presentation and or whether he will meet Museveni.
Besigye, a former National Political Commissar and senior military officer in Movement government, fell out of grace with President Museveni when he published a scathing dossier accusing the President of derailing the democratisation process.
Besigye, who is the interim chairman of FDC, is currently living in self-imposed exile in South Africa.
Munt u said the Movement system of government is conscripting Ugandans into belonging to it, adding that it is only the FDC that will restore democracy in the country.Published on: Thursday, 2nd September, 2004
