Forum for Democratic Party (FDC) chairman acholi sub-region and founder of Gulu FM Christopher Acire says if Gen Otema Awany truly wants to vie for political office in 2026, he must cross to FDC to be a better candidate.
Former Gulu City Mayor contestant stressed out that though the General has served president Museveni for so long, it's now the right time for him to say bye bye to him.
He made the statement while addressing journalists in the party resolution meeting at Global Friendship Hotel, Gulu City on Saturday 6th January 2024.
"For Gen Otema to be a better candidate, he should cross to FDC because where he is, is misplaced. Is not actually in the right hand. I know he has been serving Museveni for long so it is now time that he should leave him. Should come to FDC. Otema must cross to FDC and we shall welcome him." Hon Acire stated.
The General is currently engaged in consultation meetings with the local community of Bar-Dege-Layibi Division Gulu West.
