FORMER opposition chief whip Kasiano Wadri has explained that he stormed out of his party’s National Executive Committee meeting to attend to an urgent appointment with the bank.
Sources that attended the meeting at the Forum for Democratic Change headquarters in Najjanankumbi on Wednesday to decide the leader of opposition and chief whip reported that Wadri walked out of the meeting after he was not appointed to any of the positions.
However, Wadri yesterday clarified that the members were taking so long to decide and kept on repeating issues.
“We expected the meeting to be brief. Unfortunately, it was lengthened and I had other engagements. So when time reached for me to move out, I had to do so. It is not that I just stormed out,†he explained.
Wadri who served as the Party’s chief whip in the last Parliament said he respected the decision of the party president Dr. Kizza Besigye.
“I respect the appointing authority. They made their choice and it is better to see what others can do,†Wadri said.
He hailed the appointment of Budadiri West MP Nandala Mafabi as the leader of opposition and Kasese woman MP Winnie Kizza as the opposition chief whip.
