THE Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) has organised a protest against what they described as the failure by the Commonwealth nations to fulfil the purpose for which the group was set up.
FDC president Dr. Kizza Besigye yesterday said they will hold the activities at Kololo Airstrip today and tomorrow to, among other things, demonstrate, debate and hold rallies in protest against the Commonwealth.
The Inspector General of Police, Kale Kayihura, yesterday gave the go-ahead for the function, but cautioned the public against moving to the airstrip in large groups that may disrupt traffic.
Kayihura, in a letter to FDC, also demanded to know how many people they were expecting at the airstrip.
But Besigye expressed surprise that Kayihura wanted the party to estimate the number of participants.
Addressing journalists on Katonga Road, Besigye, flanked by Chapaa Karuhanga, said the activities would coincide with the Commonwealth summit that will take place tomorrow. For more: www.newvision.co.ug/D/8/13/598404
