This is the same silly Mao and the tar-baby UPC machinations that is going to
maintain the status quo. The last time they got less than 5%; what makes them
think they will overcome Museveni in 2016? UPC is dead in Buganda and the South
West. DP will never make any headway in the North as long as it is perceived as
the Baganda thing. So, let us face reality, act as adults and face the Museveni
juggernaut with our brains instead of ego and emotions.

A new opposition coalitioThn political parties have resolved to unite ahead of
the 2016 presidential elections in a bid to unseat President Yoweri Museveni.
But the coalition says it does not want to work with Museveni's fierce rival
and former Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) leader Kiiza Besigye accusing him
of thriving on chaos.
The parties, namely Democratic Party (DP), FDC, Uganda People's Congress
(UPC), Conservative Party (CP) and Social Democratic Party (SDP) at the weekend
pledged to field joint candidates against Museveni's National Resistance
Movement (NMR) in the next polls.
"We will field one presidential candidate to face President Museveni.
"We will make sure we come up with a youthful candidate who will convince
Ugandans to dump Museveni and come up with a new leader" said UPC official,
Gregory Olam Okello.
Okello said representatives from the opposition parties
had held one meeting where they agreed to continue the unification talks.
DP chairman Baswale Kezaala said they had set up a committee to explore ways of
effectively fighting Museveni and MNR.
Museveni has won every presidential election he contested since coming into
power in 1986.
Although the president has not said if he wants to stand in
2016, his supporters are already campaigning for him.
