Nadala Mafabi, leader of opposition in Parliament

A member of this committee also leader of the opposition in parliament Nadala Mafabi told journalists at parliament that if the proceedings are open to the public the committee will be privileged with enough information on the people appointed before they make a final judgment.

 

Nandala says that some of the recently approved ministers wouldn’t have been approved if the committee had received enough information on them.

Meanwhile Nandala says as opposition they don’t expect much from tomorrow’s state of nation address by the president. President Museveni will open the first session of the 9th parliament and then will deliver a state of the nation. Nandala says they don’t expect Museveni to make any difference in 5 years if his has failed to address the pressing issues in the last 24 years.
