There is an apparent war within Uganda opposition parties with some sharp allegations to the effect that some member parties like the Democratic Party (DP) have allied with the National Resistance Movement (NRM).

However the spokesperson of DP, Kenneth Paul Kakande clears that there is no such alliance between DP and NRM. There is no resolution of the National Executive Committee of DP mandating anybody in DP to work NRM for any political reasons.

He says that if there are any individual or group of persons doing it, they are doing it in their personal capacity and the party wishes to state that it will investigate these unfortunate and callous turn of events and such people, if any will be dealt with according to DP laws.

There also seems to be a deliberate effort to depict a war of words between FDC and DP leaders. Kakande says that the DP is not in business of attacking other opposition leaders and members. Kakande says that DP believes that the people in FDC are their friends and the party sees them as allies in the fight against Museveni’s leadership. He challenges FDC and all other opposition parties to concentrate their fire on the liberation struggle.
