FDC house is up in smoke!
FDC President Patrick Oboi Amuriat shook up the opposition leadership in Parliament by dropping the head Winnie Kiiza and replacing her with Betty Aol Ochan.
The changes have not gone down well with many in the party, pointing to a huge divide in the leadership of the party.
At the helm are Dr. Kizza Besigye and Major Gen. Mugisha Muntu who are dragging the party apart, according to Kampala Woman MP Nagayi Nabila who took to social media to echo out the deeper problem within the party.
In a live broadcast on her Facebook page, Nabilah addressed herself to the 2008 Presidential election in the FDC party that introduced challenge to the Dr. Besigye leadership.
Nabilah said: “Intellectual dishonesty is the cause of fall of our offices. Change of leadership is normal. I want to applaud my former leader Winnie Kiiza. Behind the scenes a storm is brewing.”
“Political division in FDC started in 2008 when Muntu stood against Besigye. Anybody who has dared to stand against Besigye, is a mole.”
The Kampala legislator continued: “When that started, it is the cancer that is started eating FDC. Across the board anybody who supported him has become a mole.”
Nabilah explained: “No one dares challenge the status core in FDC. When you do so you are hounded. I did not know our political parties are owned by individuals.”
There are employees of the political owners. I chose not to take office because you are seen to be supporting Besigye or Muntu.
