A new political party plans to spread its message across northern Uganda through community meetings and local campaigns. The People's Front for Freedom announced its expansion strategy during a Thursday gathering at Gulu City. Betty Aol Ocan serves as an executive member for the group and spoke about upcoming activities. The party invited more than 100 people from five districts to attend planning sessions. Members have begun collecting application forms for parliament seats and local government positions.
The organization will hold its first major event on July 8 at a Kampala venue. Silver Daniel Olweny wants to represent Torchi County and promised to visit every village to promote the party. Moses Abonga leads the group's Pece-Laroo division and aims to show residents they have capable leaders. The party focuses on better government services and improved leadership for Ugandans. Officials believe their approach will attract voters who want change.
Uganda's Electoral Commission approved the People's Front for Freedom as an official political party on June 5. Retired Colonel Kizza Besigye created the organization but remains behind bars. The veteran opposition figure has challenged government policies for many years through different parties. His supporters continue building the movement despite his absence from public events. The group hopes to compete against established parties during future elections.
