Anthony Akol's NRM victory contested as tribunal prepares to rule
In recent years, Uganda has witnessed politicians switching from opposition parties to the ruling National Resistance Movement, which has stirred debates about loyalty, strategy, and the state of the country's democratic ethos. This shift has not been without its challenges, as demonstrated by Kilak North MP Anthony Akol, who recently defected from the Forum for Democratic Change to the NRM and won in the party's primaries. However, his victory has been contested. Petitions continue to mount as the NRM tribunal prepares to make its ruling starting on August 4th.
