Finally! Besigye, Lukwago Register New Party; Reveal Name, Symbol & Colors

By Frank Kamuntu

The Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) Katonga Road faction has filed paperwork with the Electoral Commission to register a new political party dubbed People’s Front For Freedom (PPF).

This move follows the faction’s earlier declaration to dissolve the FDC and establish a fresh political entity.

The decision to form the PFF emerged from a high-energy delegates’ conference held at the FDC’s Katonga headquarters.

 

Deliberations highlighted the members’ desire for change and discontent with the status quo.

The faction explicitly sought to distance itself from its counterparts at the Najjanankumbi headquarters, whom they regarded as illegitimate.

The Katonga faction President Erias Lukwago articulated frustrations with the Electoral Commission, accusing it of bias toward the Najjanankumbi faction, which he claims has been acting against the interests of the broader party membership.

Lukwago’s presentation included three main proposals: the formation of a new political party, the dissolution of the FDC in line with the party’s constitution, and an extension of the current leadership’s tenure to oversee these transitions.

Despite facing internal resistance, the majority of the Katonga faction’s delegates backed these proposals.

Lukwago reassured members of their determination to continue their fight for what they believe is rightful representation and leadership, declaring,

“We are committed to fighting on and will not be deterred by those who oppose our vision.”
