The leader of opposition in Parliament,
Nathan Nandala Mafabi has vowed that Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) will
defeat NRM in the Kasese woman MP by-elections that will be held on August 8th.
Nandala, told journalists at Grand
Holiday Hotel in Mbarara, at the weekend after meeting of Party leaders in
Ankole Sub-region to discuss new strategies for development and
leadership of the party.
He said that FDC party will retain
the hotly-contested seat, adding that their candidate, Winfred Kiiza, is strong
and focused on causing change and development in Kasese than her opponent from
NRM.
Mafabi said that FDC is aware that
the NRM will mobilize and take all resources including money to Kasese to win
the August slated by-elections but they will not manage because FDC is strong.
He added that Ugandans have woken up
and they know what they want.
Winfred Kiiza, who has been the area
woman MP for six years, lost her seat in June after court of appeal ruling in
favour of NRM’s Rehema Muhindo on grounds that electoral commission erred in organizing
the 2011 elections for the woman MP in Kasese.
So far
Kasese Guide Radio understands that the third candidate Betty Kayesu is joining
the race on independent ticket. END
