The Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) Secretary General, Nathan Nandala Mafabi has warned his former party president, Rtd Col Dr Kiza Besiyge to desist from telling lies.
Mafabi says Besiyge’s account of events as “not sincere,” noting that he would also reveal the sources of Besiyge’s dirty money.
Nandala says Besigye used dirty money during his four times of presidential bid.
“Dr Besiyge has been the FDC presidential candidate four times and during all those times, he has been very well funded. I and Besiyge know very well how and where he was getting his funding. But all that time up to now, nobody has ever asked him about the source of his funding,” Mafabi said.
“If we decided to come out and reveal all the sources of his funding now, this country will be in flames,” he added.
Nandala says whatever Besigye is doing is in bad faith.
He also says being at Katonga Road, Besigye wanted to use that place to capture the party.
Nandala also said Besiyge has all of a sudden developed a jealous approach towards Amuriat.
“He is just being selfish and jealous. When he left the party, he thought we would collapse, but he is seeing us moving ahead every day and this is not going down well with him. Now, how he will blame Museveni that he manipulates the constitution all that time when he himself is breaking what is clearly put down in the FDC constitution? Besigye wants to use force all the time. He thinks he is the alpha and omega in FDC. No!” Nandala said.
Nandala also said Besiyge is not a founding member of FDC.
“First of all, he is not a founder member of the FDC. When we were starting this party, he was in South Africa. It is from there that he joined us after we had started the party. If he actually says he is a founding member, a founding party father as he likes to be referred to, let him show the country where he signed when he founded the party. I want to call on Ugandans to resist this man. It is us who have been telling people that he is a good man but he has turned out to be a very bad man,” he said.
Nandala also reaffirmed that the former political commissar received part of the dirty money.
“When he received the shs 300 million, he took it to his brother who is a moneylender in town and that is how it ended up being exchanged into dollars. Anyway, it is a long story. But as far as I understand Besigye, he is doing everything out of jealousy for Amuriat who he thought couldn’t take the party forward and all of us at Najjanankumbi. Everything is in bad faith and that is very bad,” he added.
