The National Unity Platform (NUP) has adjusted its countrywide mobilisation tour program for three districts.
The three districts include Mukono, Masaka, and Mityana. The social media message posted on X formally Twitter by the Party President Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu indicates that police have claimed that the venues initially booked were not convenient.
He is however dismayed that other political groups have been using the same venue.
“They even denied us a chance to use the Liberation Square in Masaka City which has been hosting most political events. Anyway, in the greater interest of ensuring that our events happen successfully, we have made these adjustments and secured new venues. We hope they will not come up with other excuses.” The message reads in parts.
The adjustments indicate that the party shall hold the tour for Mukono on Wednesday this week, Masaka on Friday, and Mityana on Tuesday next week.
On Monday morning, NUP members in Mukono district confirmed their readiness to receive party president Robert Kyagulanyi for the tour on Tuesday.

Hereafter the trail would proceed to Mukono Taxi Park for the main rally.
