 The signing ceremony took place at Hotel Africana.

The Kyadondo East MP, Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine, Maj.Gen. Mugisha Muntu  and other political actors attended as DP factions start a new chapter of unity.

The pact is crafted under the concept of ‘Unity is the only option'.

DP president, Nobert Mao, recently extended an olive branch to various leaders of DP factions, saying that unity ahead of 2021 should be the main agenda of actors  in the modern politics of the country.
