Also rumored to join the trio is Makindye legislator Allan Ssewanyana.
Highly placed sources told The Nile Post that the party has been in talks with the politicians, who have an attachment to DP, to formally have them on board.
The talks, we have been told, picked up intensity last week. Sources said that senior FDC officials led by the party president, Patrick Amuriat, are in the thick of the negotiations.
We have also been told that former FDC president Dr Kizza Besigye is playing a big role.
“They are about to join us but I can’t tell you with certainty. Things can change,” said an official knowledgeable about the negotiations.
