FDC-Katonga Formalises Party Registration

The Katonga faction of the Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) has officially begun the process of establishing a new political entity, dubbed the People's Front for Freedom (PFF). This faction, based at Katonga Road in Kampala, submitted formal paperwork to the Electoral Commission to reserve the PFF name, signaling a significant step in its separation from the main FDC body.

In a move that further solidifies its intentions, the faction has unveiled key details about the new party. The PFF has chosen a mobile phone as its party symbol, representing modern communication and accessibility.

The party's slogan, "Freedom for All and All for Freedom," reflects its commitment to broad-based democratic ideals and the pursuit of freedom for all Ugandans.

The PFF's identity is further defined by its selected colors—royal blue and white—which symbolize peace, unity, and integrity. These colors are expected to be prominent in the party's branding and campaign materials.

The new political entity is supported by 12 promoters, who are key figures within the Katonga-based faction. These promoters are expected to play crucial roles in the party’s organizational structure and in rallying support as the PFF seeks to establish itself on Uganda's political landscape.

The formation of the PFF marks a significant development in Uganda’s political scene, particularly within opposition circles.

The move by the Katonga faction highlights the ongoing divisions within the FDC and signals a potential realignment of political forces ahead of future elections.

As the process unfolds, the PFF’s impact on Uganda’s political dynamics will be closely watched by both supporters and critics alike.
