Muntu said Museveni is leading the country to a dangerous crisis if he continues with his greed than Service delivery for tax payers in the country. 

He cited corruption in the country, un equal distribution of resources, dictatorship by the ruling party which brings a lot of hatred and anger among the people and this will one day lead the country to demonstrations like other countries due to poor leadership.

The former soldier of Museveni said, the president does not have a transition and succession plan yet he has counted years to rule the country citing some of the reasons the country is in crisis right now as, no drugs in hospitals, poor road systems, people involving in scandals of embezzling billions of shilling and nothing done about them yet the government collects more than two billion dollars from the tax payers.

Muntu intimated that the ruling party is divided with a lot of scandals which shows the crisis is deepening especially when the leaders are falling apart due to their selfish interests, greed and self-motivation which ruins good governance. 

The strong FDC man made the statements while addressing FDC delegates of west Nile region in Arua on Monday. He said it’s time that people voted for a leader who will change the current status of Uganda and purify and cleanse the country from what is happening.

He said Uganda is a country of unity but has currently been misdirected by poor leadership which he will address once elected to lead of FDC party and the country at large. Muntu is looking forward to increasing the number of leaders from local councils to the highest offices so as to influence decision making in terms of service delivery.

There is also a plan to replicate election by monitoring elections and engage in building strong structure by party members since Ugandans are not following democratic means of electing their leaders which he said has to change if he goes through as the party president.

Muntu is intimating to re-brand FDC and create the real image of togetherness so that people know about FDC from the grass roots and identify to it as a party because they have less years to capture power.

Though the candidates are seriously moving around the country convincing delegates to cast their votes to them, there is a challenge of updating the voters register which is currently in a bad state and may cause problems by the time of the elections because some people are threatening to block the exercise if the old register will be used.

Muntu is competing against Nandala Mafabi and Ekanya Geoffrey who expressed interest to be the party President come November 22nd to replace Dr. Kizza Besigye who stepped down as the party president late last year.
