Members of the ruling National Resistance Movement who contested and failed in the previous party primary elections have formed an association to stop future ‘sham elections.
The association dubbed Action for Transformation and Sustainable Development also seeks to help members recover from the loss and strategize for the 2026 election.
The interim committee led by former Rubanda MP Aspirant Mr. Robert Mathias Nuhereza is now on a country-wide tour to mobilize fellow losers.
The team held the first meeting in Mbale where they met NRM losers across eastern Uganda.
The members also seek to catch the attention of the party leaders who in their view have neglected them.
The members further emphasized their dismay in the party’s silence on the chaos that marred the October 2020 party primaries which they lost.
Approximately 2000 aspirants lost in the NM primaries compared to the 300 elected MPs. END
