UGANDA�s
political map could soon be changing.
The ruling
Movement�s National Executive Committee (NEC) will soon decide whether
the Movement system of governance should be replaced by a multiparty system. This follows reports that President Yoweri Museveni on
January 28 advised the ad hoc committee that it was time to return to political
pluralism.
The National Political Commissar (NPC), Dr Crispus Kiyonga, said the
eagerly awaited NEC conference will take place soon���..etc
My question: If political party pluralism can be
decided by the Movement�s NEC, what was the Referendum all about? Let�s say NEC recommends that the
next general elections will be fought on party platforms, governments are formed
on the basis of Political Parties, and can�t someone challenge the
legitimacy of the governments? According to the outcome of
the referendum the majority of Ugandans voted for the movement type of
leadership as opposed to political parties, are we going to have another referendum
to reverse that?
