The Deputy Resident District Commissioner of Amolatar, Obonyo Magwar has recommended that the district chairman of the NRM convene a review meeting for party supporters and former flagbearers.
In a letter, Obonyo urged NRM chairperson Olwit Kamilo to organise a review meeting following tumultuous elections that resulted in the defeat of all parliamentary candidates and the district chairman.
He stated that if the review meeting is approached with sincerity, it could facilitate a constructive dialogue aimed at strengthening the NRM in Amolatar and enhancing future mobilisation efforts.
Obonyo emphasised that such a meeting would help reconcile the divided factions within the NRM, which have been split along the lines of historical political affiliations in Amolatar.
Organising this meeting, Magwar said, would propel the NRM community, the business sector, and peace-loving citizens towards rapid development, leveraging the well-established factors conducive to growth.
Additionally, he mentioned that the meeting would develop strategies for collaboration with the incoming chairman, who is recognised as a proactive NRM member capable of elevating Amolatar to unprecedented heights.
Olwit Kamilo could not be reached for comments as his known mobile phone number was unreachable.
In the recently concluded general elections, especially the January 15 polls, the NRM candidates for parliamentary and district positions were defeated, despite President Museveni securing 87 percent of the votes in the district.
Prominent NRM MP and flagbearers like Dr Agnes Atim Apea and Peter Okodo all lost to the UPC candidates in what supporters and campaign teams described as “influence and sabotage” by Ambassador Doreen Amule.
Ambassador Amule who represents Uganda in Paris, France, NRM members and flagbearers claim, campaigned for and financed opposition candidates leading to their great losses.
Amule has not responded to this accusation.
