Police and the military have heighted former
Vice President Gilbert Bukenya’s security, after
he announced that he would support President
Yoweri Museveni’s bid for presidency in 2016
elections.
Bukenya who last Friday declared his support for
Museveni has also defended his move saying he
wasn’t convinced The Democratic Alliance had
solutions to the country’s problems.
Bukenya on Tuesday also defended his decision
to quit the TDA and support Museveni saying he
had the right to support candidate of his choice.
Addressing his supporters at his home in Kakiri
Wakiso, Bukenya maintained that he had not
joined the National Resistance Movement (NRM)
but would support Museveni as a presidential
candidate.
“I did not take any money like many of my
adversaries have said. I left The Democratic
Alliance (TDA) because none of the members
there was willing to answer my questions. I had
gone to TDA to look for wisdom. Unfortunately, I
did not find any as most of the members had
selfish interests,” he said.
TDA lacks wisdom – Bukenya.
