Mwesigye mentioned that some people have started to become stumbling blocks.
“Those eying for the top in this country should take a chill pill and learn from the visionary leader Museveni,you have excitement that you want to become president ,how?Lt.Col .Mwesigye asked.
In his submission,Maj.Gen.Jim Muhwezi the cabinet minister for security said when the National Resistance Army (NRA) launched the guerilla war,they did not risk their lives for top jobs in government but rather had Patriotic hearts.
“President Yoweri Museveni’s track record is evident enough to show that he is still the best striker with visionary leadership for the Uganda and has our interests at heart.This is therefore why he is endorsed to lead our party and the country over and over again”minister Muhwezi explained.
However , Minister Muhwezi asked military veterans to organize themselves in groups if they are to benefit from government programs.
Joseph Kiiza the coordinator of media in the office of the National Chairman appreciated Veterans move to endorse Museveni for another and therefore asked all the regions in the country to join the cause.
