M7 snubs continued demands for Federo

By Administrator Editor

Monday, 06 February 2006President Yoweri Museveni has said that the demand for ‘Federo’ by Buganda is a waste of time.

Museveni said that his dream is a bigger and stronger East Africa.

Addressing a rally in Arua, Museveni said the African problem has been selfish leaders who look inward and frustrate efforts to create a one united Africa.

Museveni said he will remain in active politics till his dream of a powerful East Africa and Africa is realized.

Museveni’s main challenger, Dr. Kiiza Besigye of the Forum for Democratic Change, recently promised Federo for Buganda if elected President.

Last month, the presidential candidate of the Uganda Peoples Congress, Miria Obote, also said her party wants a federal arrangement for the whole country.

Museveni’s government has only granted a regional tier system for districts that may wish to co-operate.
