Museveni Urges NRM MPs Unity

President Yoweri Museveni advised NRM MPs who lost party primaries against contesting as independents, warning that doing so could split votes and benefit opposition candidates. Speaking in Arua, Museveni urged aggrieved MPs to seek legal remedies for alleged primary irregularities and remain loyal to the party. NRM Vice Chair Hamson Obua confirmed the president’s message, emphasizing party unity and discipline, though some MPs have said they still plan to contest as independents.
