"Opposition to continue with Boycott of Parliament sittings"- Mpuuga.



The Shadow Cabinet has this morning resolved to continue with the Opposition boycott of Parliament sittings until when the government is ready to comprehensively respond to the Opposition demands on safeguarding human rights in the country.

The cabinet chaired by the Leader of the Opposition in Parliament (LOP) Mathias Mpuuga also urged Opposition MPs to continue attending Parliamentary Committee meetings and defy an chairpersons who attempt to chase them out of the Committees.

Mpuuga also cautioned political party leaders against issuing directives to their respective MPs that are intended to undermine the Opposition cause.

This follows a directive by FDC and DP to its members to end the boycott and return to the House.



Mpuuga said that the danger in such moves is the possibility of causing internal rifts.

The DP whip, Peter Okot informed the Shadow Cabinet that the DP caucus is already in disagreement with the majority of its members opting to move against the guidance from the DP headquarters.
