The Democratic Party (DP) is bitter with its members like Merdad Lubega Seggona and Betty Nambooze who have chosen to work with Ssuubi 2011 as party officials.
This follows a rally in Masaka where the promoters of DP members were introduced as DP officials in the absence of party president Norbert Mao.
This also prompted a demonstration by members loyal to Mao that later turned violent and chased Nambooze out of Masaka.
The Secretary General of DP, Matthias Nsubuga says the party has no problem with those who join the IPC or Ssuubi but should not do it in the capacity or name of the Democratic Party.
