Bobi Wine's National Unity Platform Party Launches Membership Cards

The National Unity Platform (NUP) political party has unveiled its membership card and this has been revealed by the party president Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine.

“Are you ready to get your Membership Card? We are the National Unity Platform. We are People Power. We are Uganda,” the Kyadondo East Member of Parliament tweeted on Tuesday.

Last Wednesday, Bobi Wine took over the leadership of NUP political party as president, a party which was previously headed by Moses Nkonge Kibalama who said this was a merger between NUP and People Power at the party’s delegates conference on 14th July.

“The National Unity Reconciliation and Development Party was formed in December 2004 and we certified government requirements. We are up to date, there is nothing lacking in terms of accountability; we come here with clean hands,” Kibalama said during the party unveiling ceremony.

According to Bobi Wine, when they started the People Power Movement about three years ago, they had lengthy discussions about whether or not to register it as a political party. Their analysis led them to the conclusion that it was both untimely and impractical to form a political party. In any case, they were alive to the fact that the regime would foil any attempt to register the movement as a political party.
