Recently the press wrote about President Yoweri
Museveni stating that he wanted to free political space
to accomodate multi-partyism
at a meeting held for Movement cadres.
The Reform Agenda has challenged President Museveni
and the NRM government to first build national institutions before political
parties are freed. {Is the Reform Agenda urging Museveni
to further delay the lift on political party ban until a long and a tedious exercise of drafting a
pro-people constitution is done?}
That could be another five years, men. It seems
that political party pluralism pauses a fear to the
Reform Agenda. If Ssebana Kizito runs for DP, which
might take away votes from the Reform Presidential General. If UPC fields candidate in the West, the
Movement’s Political party might trounce both Reform and UPC. Do not forget other mushrooming
political parties in the making, which is deemed to
dwindle the Reform’s support
Reform Agenda members say President Museveni’s
expression of interest in freeing political parties is the right step in the
move to democracy but Ugandans should continue searching for more political
reforms.
A statement read for the Reform Agenda Deputy Chairman by Betty Kamya the Spokesperson of the pressure group said the
government should put up a pro-people constitution free of manipulation as a
pre-requisite for meaningful political returns.
Reform Agenda Deputy Chairman adds that government should build legal,
administrative institutions and involve all political opposition groups in the
political reforms of the country.
