The Association of
Ugandans living in the UK is to debate the proposed referendum on the
return to a multiparty political system.
The association will
hold a convention on August 2 in London, according Mr Dickson Wasajja, the
coordinator for the Ugandan delegation to the convention.
He was yesterday
addressing a press conference at National Theatre in Kampala.
The association
consists of various Ugandan organisations and pressure groups in the
UK.
Th groups include
the Uganda People's Congress (UPC), Democratic Party (DP), Conservative
Party (CP), Justice Forum and the Reform Agenda.
The government wants
to call a referendum in 1995 but multiparty advocates say that it is
unnecessary.
Former presidential
candidates Mr Chapaa Karuhanga, Dr Kizza Besigye, Mr Kibirige Mayanja and
former president Mr Godfrey Binaisa have been invited to the
convention.
Former ministers Mr
Eriya Kategaya and Mr Bidandi Ssali, Lubaga South MP Mr Ken Lukyamuzi and
Katikamu North MP, Mr James Kinobe have also been invited.
