JUST IN : Muhoozi appointment meant to dissolve PLU – NEED

The National Economic Empowerment Dialogue (NEED) party, says the appointment of First Son, Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba in the recent cabinet reshuffle is meant to dissolve Patriotic League of Uganda (PLU), a pressure group he launched a few weeks ago.

On Thursday President Museveni amended his cabinet list. Gen Muhoozi was appointed as the new Chief of Defense Forces (CDF) while his two other leaders in PLU: Lilian Aber and Balaam Barugahare were appointed ministers.

However, Muhoozi’s appointment has been interpreted by some politicians as a move by the president to dissolve the PLU pressure group which they say was threatening to become a political threat to the ruling National Resistance Movement

NEED’s party  spokesperson, Moses Matovu in an interview with this publication said that Muhoozi’s appointment is also another sign of killing the efforts of Democratic-Seeking Forces who are agitating for a transition since, saying the CDF position enables Muhoozi to easily takeover power.

“I can ably state that PLU has been left redundant and maybe it is a recruitment hub for self-seekers with no clear future. The patron of PLU has been made CDF, and other members of the group have been given positions,” said Mr Matovu.
