Besigye to sit in Kirussia

By Kezio D. Musoke PRESIDENTIAL candidate Col (Rtd) Kizza Besigye and former mayor Nasser Ntege Sebaggala will watch today's match between Uganda Cranes and Senegal Lions from the Kirussia stands. Besigye's coordinator for Kampala Central Segujja Wamala told The New Vision yesterday that the two allies will be accompanied to Nakivubo stadium by several MPs, including Nsubuga Nsambu (Makindye), Alex Onzima (Machacha), Winnie Babihuga (Rukungiru), Arthur Bagunya (Mityana South) and Sam Njuba (Kyadondo East). "The whole contingent will sit in the kirussia with the fans and not in the pavilion," Segujja said. "This is not only to our advantage but also to Nakivubo Stadium because some fans would love to sit with their candidate." He added: "Their attendance could pull a large crowd because of either Besigye or Sebaggala's presence." Besigye's private Secretary David Kanyerezi said the Task Force was still organising to pay for tickets for some fans to enter free of charge as way of boosting support. Besigye's move to buy out the match failed due to price disagreement. Ends
