Mafabi stressed the importance of early declarations from serving leaders, underlining the need for seriousness in the selection process.

In response to circulating rumors from the Katonga group, Mafabi clarified that Jack Sabiiti holds the position of party chairman, refuting claims that Waswa Birigwa is the chairman. 

He urged the media to verify information before reporting to ensure accuracy and prevent the spread of misleading news among the Ugandans.

Notably, Honorable Nathan Nandala Mafabi, expressing his commitment to the party's cause, confirmed that if entrusted with the position of party president in 2026, he would represent FDC members fearlessly. 

This information was disclosed during a meeting with FDC leaders in the Elgon Region at the Mountain Inn Hotel in Mbale City yesterday the the 19th of December 2023.
