Opposition MPs have asked Parliament to amend the Political Parties Organization Act to enable political parties receive more funds from donors.

According to the current law, Political Party cannot receive cash donations exceeding 400 million shillings.

Appearing before the legal and Parliamentary affairs committee of Parliament, Tororo County Legislator Geoffrey Ekanya says their activities are curtailed by inadequate funds.

He also wants the Presidential Elections Act to have a clause that will ban RDCs from engaging in active politics because they are civil servants.
