I have no issues with Dr. Besigye- Gen Muntu

Must read

Former Forum for Democratic Change party president rtd Major General Mugisha Muntu said he has no issues with former presidential candidate Dr. Kiiza Besigye despite believing in different political ideologies.

Gen. Muntu and others quit the Najjanakumbi based party, over what he says different party ideologies. Muntu is said to be front building of party structures as opposed to defiance fronted by by Besigye and Najjanakumbi faction.

Muntu who believes in building party structures noted that, they had two options of leaving the party or staying and remain locked to Amuriat’s agenda of defiance, and keeping at the party to initiate their motives.
“I have no issue with Dr. Kizza Besigye and we shall meet because we are all actors in the political environment. I don’t mix things. We don’t become enemies after we compete,” he noted at Africana Hotel.

Gen Muntu says their decision to leave was reached after countrywide consultations which saw them interact with Ugandans across all sub regions. He contends that the consultations showed that the party was divided basing on two ideologies of defiance and building party structures to favorably compete in the election.

“I was also called a mole when I was in the bush. We do things differently, that’s why people misunderstand us,” said Muntu.
Muntu emphasized that those that allege that he has been meeting President Museveni seem not to understand him I last met face to face with President Museveni in 2004 after the PAFO meeting in Mbale. I say this and I know no one can challenge it. Integrity is one of the most central values of my existence as a human being,” Gen. Muntu said.

Muntu who quit amid criticisms, revealed that their departure is in good faith believing that it is consequential to both the party and could mark the beginning of cooperation between opposition parties and leaders.

The group is however, set to have a participatory process of defining their agenda, core values and motives for the yet to be formed political party.
“We must be willing to recognize that One Uganda One People cannot be achieved without truth and justice. That peace, unity and transformation cannot happen without People’s Power being our power,” he added
