Akena to stand for UPC presidency

UPC President Dr. Olara Otunnu has extended an olive branch and allowed Jimmy Akena to stand for the highest seat in the party. Akena had been barred from standing for UPC presidency allegedly after handing in late his nomination papers beyond the stipulated April 17, 2015 deadline. However addressing journalists this afternoon at the party headquarters in Kampala, Otunnu said that the party had sat and considered to focus on what he termed as a bigger picture and bring members aboard.
