The ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) party will spend at least Shs31.2b in facilitating campaigns for its flag bearers on parliamentary, city mayoral and LC5 seats ahead of the 2021 General Election.
Mr Godfrey Kiwanda, the NRM vice chairperson for Buganda region, told Daily Monitor in Masaka City, that the money is raised from remittances by the elected flag bearers from the President to the local governments.
“The party has money because the government gives us money under the interparty alliance. This is constitutionally given to each of the political parties. NRM gets the lion’s share because we have the biggest numbers because they give the money depending on how many MPs you have in Parliament. The party gets monthly remittances from MPs and we hope in future we are going to intensify ways of getting donors,” Mr Kiwanda said.
