CLEARED: Dr. Gerald Siranda (2nd right) humbles himself before President Museveni, when the Head of State met IPOD Political Party Secretary Generals in State House last month<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

WHAT<\/strong> we told you a couple of days ago about the National Unity Platform (NUP) party and Forum for Democratic Change (FDC), the two leading opposition Political Parties in Uganda that majority party NRM will play them syndicate for 2022-2027 EALA elections, has come to pass. The fact that their candidates will never make it to the East African Legislative Assembly (EALA), this news website can authoritatively reveal that, it is now a done deal.\u00a0
President Yoweri Museveni who doubles as Chairman of the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM), a party with the majority Members of Parliament has directed Government Chief Whip (CGW) Thomas Tayebwa and Party Secretary General \u00a0(SG) Richard Todwong to start rallying all legislators behind Democratic Party Secretary General Dr. Gerald Blacks Siranda, DP’s flag bearer in the forthcoming EALA election.<\/em><\/strong>
Mr. Museveni has been reportedly directed that NUP and FDC be locked out, NRM MPs must vote DP and UPC candidates.
Yesterday, GCW Tayembwa held a meeting with Tayebwa at the former’s office to be briefed and given assurance that the ruling Party is officially behind his candidature, \u00a0let him just concentrate on planning for the swearing in function.
In a Tweet, CGW Tayebwa wrote, “My brother Gerald Siranda thank you for checking on me last evening. Congratulations on being chosen as the DP candidate for EALA.” Tayebwa did not, however, elaborate about this meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
