Change won't come to the silent

Forum for Democratic Change presidential candidate, Kizza Besigye says Ugandans must work on their attitude if they are to see change in the country.
Besigye who is currently soliciting for votes in the Kigezi sub-region was addressing thousands of FDC supporters at Rukungiri stadium on Monday evening. Besigye says many Ugandans have failed to resist the ill treatment from the police and corrupt leaders, but expect things to improve.
"In getting power, we must first be confident that the country belongs to us. We should  do away with fear. When you go to voting without power, it will be a matter of wasting time. 

Take an example of Erias Lukwago who is here, he was voted into office by the people of Kampala but he is not in office. He should have been thrown out of the office by the same people who voted him in and not the government. But this has taken place because the people who put him in office have no authority and power. We shall only achieve this when we work together".

Besigye told supporters that FDC will start with the sale of the presidential jet once they are elected into office.
FDC president Gen Mugisha Muntu who was also present at the rally revealed that he is worried about Ugandans who are yet to realize the wrong actions of the ruling National Resistance Movement party and continue to support it.
Aruu MP, Odonga Otto told the crowd that this was the time for change.
"For us this is not a picnic, this is not a laughing matter. This is time for change. And by the grace of God we shall make it. And those who don't want change may death strike by lightening", Otto said.
Besigye had arrived at the venue about four hours late after being delayed by heavy traffic jam. Besigye was welcomed by his supporters from Rukungiri road junction in Ntungamo town, and escorted him up to his home district of Rukungiri. On Tuesday, Besigye is expected to hold a rally in Ntungamo district at Kyamate playground.
