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.

Updates: Latest on the Parrots UG desk indicates that President Museveni has lined up 100 persons to be vetted for ministerial positions in a new cabinet. The nominees who include former Prime minister Patrick Amama Mbabazi, NRM Secretary General Justine Kasule Lumumba are now waiting for parliament to vet them.
