The new leader of Opposition will replace FDC’sBetty Aol Ocan who has been holding this position from 2018 following a shocking reshuffle.

In a party meeting sitting today, the Manjiya county MP John Baptist Nambeshe was elected the Opposition Chiefwhip in parliament replacing devastated Kira municipality MP Ibrahim Ssemujju Nganda of FDC, who lost the parliamentaryspeaker race on Monday May 24.

The NUP party is also in consultation to form a shadow cabinet and fill the other positions and the leadership of the four accountability committees that is to say; the Public Accounts Committee (PAC), Committee on Commissions Statutory Authorities and State Enterprises (COSASE), Local Government Accounts Committee (LGAC), and Committee on Government Assurances.

David Lewis Rubongoya, the part Secretary General said in a recent interview in media that the party is considering to appoint shadow cabinet shortly after the ruling government has announced their cabinet.

“The Shadow Cabinet will be selected after this other side (Executive) announce their cabinet and we are consulting with our comrades because we are looking at these positions as mission oriented to aid the struggle,” Mr Rubongoya said.

The nominees who include former Prime minister Patrick Amama Mbabazi, NRM Secretary General Justine Kasule Lumumba are now waiting for parliament to vet them.
