Bantariza noted that it is fine for the opposition to cause the alarm of change in the country but National Resistance Movement (NRM) will not go anywhere. Bantariza noted that the ruling regime has governed the people of Uganda so well therefore they deserve more time to continue reviving the country. “The truth is that NRM is not the first political entity to take over power in Uganda. There were others before us – but how did they use it?” Bantariza queried.

It is something we paid a high price for,” he said.){kind=link}
