“I am working with President Museveni,” Amama Mbabazi told the Local Council Councilors.

The former Super Minister further said, “I am NRM. Those who thought that because I contested against our chairman that I left NRM are wrong because they do not know what they are talking about. I was among those who started NRM, so why should I leave it, I cannot,” Hon. Amama Mbabazi asserted.

Amama said he has rejoined President Museveni and is returning to the mainstream National Resistance Movement (NRM) for an active role in the party’s affairs.
