Kampala-Former Forum for Democratic Change ex-party president Dr. Kizza Besigye and current party leader Gen. Mugishu Muntu have this afternoon picked nomination forms for party’s flag bearer in the forthcoming elections.
FDC intends to hold elections for party flag bearer at the delegate’s conference mid next month. Gen. Muntu picked his nomination papers while Dr. Besigye’s were picked by Mr Wilberforce Kyambadde. Should Dr. Besigye be endorsed by his party, it will be his fourth attempt but having offered himself for the last three time, Besigye has grown his support base across the country and with the in fights within the ruling party, this could give him advantage over other new comers and therefore, he remains the darling of many opposition followers having identified himself as a pro people leader who came out earlier to oppose NRM in 1999.
