The mainstream Forum for Democratic Change -FDC faction based at Najjanankumbi led by Jack Sabitti and Robert Centenary has initiated a fresh grassroots mobilization strategy in Western Uganda while exploring avenues for reconciliation with the Katonga faction.
The faction aims to strengthen party support and foster unity within its ranks.
In a closed meeting at the Kings Hotel in Kabale district with party leaders from Kigezi region yesterday, the duo discussed strategies for rejuvenating party support.
Centenary expressed disappointment at Kigezi leaders for allegedly avoiding participation in the party structures’ elections organized by Najjanankumbi in late 2023.
Despite supporting coalition efforts among opposition political parties for a change in political leadership, Centenary lamented the frustration faced by some individuals who believe they are the sole champions of this cause. Hon. Centenary speaking…
Sabitti emphasized the faction’s commitment to grassroots mobilization, starting with district and sub-county leaders.Mr. Sabitti speaking…
He stressed the importance of preventing conflicts among top leaders from impeding the party’s brand and objectives.
The FDC has been mired in internal conflicts since November 2023 when the Katonga group, led by Dr. Kizza Besigye, accused the Najjanankumbi group, led by party President Patrick Amuriat Oboi and Secretary-General Nathan Nandala Mafabi, of accepting money from President Yoweri Museveni during the 2021 general elections.
