{UAH} Allan: How do you predict the ending of all this?

Founders of National Unity Platform party have petitioned the Electoral commission over the illegal and fraudulent acquisition of their party by Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine.

Kyagulanyi is accused of illegally amending the NURP political party constitution to change the party name, symbols and colours and changing party leadership to install himself as its leader.

"Under section 4 and 21 of the political parties and organizations act 2005, we are instructed by the founders of the National unity, Reconciliation and Development party (NURP) which was registered as a political party in 2004. To lodge a complaint against the following unlawful resolutions/ decisions/ transactions entered into on behalf of the said party which violates the party constitution and national laws" Lawyers representing party founders wrote.

The founders through their legal counsel James Byamukama advocates complain about the resolution amending the party name from National Unity , Reconciliation and Development Party (NURP) as per its certificate of registration issued on 28/12/2004 to the National Unity Platform published under General Notice under NO 838 of 2019 in the Uganda Gazette dated 12/8/2019 and certificate of registration issued on 28/8/29 without complying with the party constitution 2004 and provisions of the Political parties Organizations Act 2005.

"The resolution dated 5/12/2017 illegally nominating someone described in the resolution as the Ghetto President H.E Bobi Wine Kyadondo East MP Hon Kyagulanyi Robert as the party's presidential flag bearer in the 2021  presidential elections , many years before the due time for such nominations and without following the party constitution and national laws".

 

"The extra ordinary delegates conference allegedly held on 14/7/2020 and attended by only 51 members out of a delegates membership list of 400 delegates which rubber stamped Hon Kyagulanyi Ssentamu Robert as new party president and his associates ss party flag bearers unopposed without conducting a proper election in violation of party constitution and provisions in the national constitution on internal democracy of political parties".

 

"If you fail or omit to exercise your statutory mandate in the matter, our clients who are the party founders will have no option but to join the electoral commission to legal proceedings intended to restore control of the NURP party to its rightful founders and members".
