The forum for democratic change (FDC) spokesperson Wafulu oguttu has announced that the walk to work demonstrations will kick off come this Wednesday.

Addressing a weekly press conference at the FDC party headquarters on Monday at Najjanankumbi, Oguttu said that two months back the activists for change had stopped their ‘walk to work’ campaigns due to the then pending national budget reading.

He says that the budget released has not brought in positive resolutions to the current economic crisis in the Country.

 “Ugandans should not only look at prices of sugar but also other goods like; meat, posho, school fees, shortage of clean water supply, safety of public money as well as electricity.”

Wafula says that in the president’s meeting with his cabinet, nothing was agreed on as beneficial to Ugandans apart from the usual rhetoric.

“Protests didn’t make both investors and tourists not to come to Uganda because they are done in a peaceful manner but police and other security organs use excessive force which results into chaos’’, Oguttu noted.
