President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni continues to warn politicians, especially members of the National Resistance Movement (NRM) party against using their own money in politics with the hope of solving all their constituents’ problems.
According to the President, the move is very expensive and depletes resources without creating any significant change to the population.
“As if you haven’t been following closely about political leadership. I don’t know why you use money in politics. That is a very big mistake. I would really advise you that this is wrong, counter productive and unnecessary. Stop this bad politics,” H.E Museveni said.
The President made the appeal today at Kololo Independence grounds while meeting 478 NRM party flag bearers and chairpersons drawn from the 5 divisions that make up Kampala namely; Rubaga, Nakawa, Kawempe, Makindye and Kampala central.
H.E Museveni who is also the NRM National Chairman encouraged members to use the word of the mouth by telling people what they can do using government resources not their own money.
