Member of the National Unity Platform (NUP) have given the Party leader Kyagulanyi Robert a two day ultimatum to settle their grievances on the concluded nomination exercise or they quit the party.

This follows what they called discrimination and corruption that characterized the vetting and nomination of NUP candidates to contest for several elective positions in Masaka district.

Speaking today at the NUP offices in Masaka where they had camped demonstrating, the aggrieved candidates and supporters decried the vetting and nomination process alleging that only the corrupt were given the party flag while the popular where left out.

The cryfull members said that they joined NUP hoping it was different and transparent enough to lead them to the desirable change however the nomination exercise is proving that the party is more corrupt than the ones they’re fighting casting a doubt in the kind of change it will bring.

 Many NUP members across the country have been left aggrieved by the candidate nomination exercise which has brought much friction in the young party.
