EDITOR: It is a shame that some ministers who lost in the NRM primaries are asking for a re-run, while others plan to contest as independents in the 2011 elections. I urge those who lost to just accept defeat and support those who went through. Petitioning and organising re-run elections is a waste of time and money for the NRM party.

EDITOR: I am so disappointed in the way the NRM politicians are behaving. Contestants should stop abusing and insulting their opponents and concentrate on telling the people what they can do for them. I appeal to all political parties to set up regulations that can help them have free and fair elections.

EDITOR: The adult suffrage method of choosing leaders in the NRM party has had a lot of challenges. Let me hope the party leaders have noted where the problem lies and can now work on solutions.
I want to warn those who have lost that it will not help them to stand as independents. They should respect the outcomes of the elections. More so, suing the party, bickering, petitioning, protesting and appealing for fresh elections will only waste the party's resources and time.
Losers should respect democracy and display some mature politics. NRM voters have spoken, so respect their political views. They will fail you again when you stand as independents. So, do not waste your time.

EDITOR: I am amused by the trend of events in the NRM primaries. Politicians are fearing to lose elections because they have taken politics as a career aimed at satisfying their own needs other than helping the communities they represent. Why should those who have lost elections threaten to join other parties or run as independents? This shows these politicians only care about their positions, not their party.

, that shows how greedy, and selfish they are, implying that they dont know how good their party is but how good their positions are to themselves. I wonder how a person Like Dr. Richard Nduhura could not be satisfied by what he has achieved, he has used his influence to have his relatives placed in government and other NGO's at the expense of others, he has accummulated enough wealth, i think it is time for him to think of his career as a Doctor and leave Politics alone am sure it is God who has rewarded him! Dear Doctor our prayers count alot.
For our Captain Francis Babu, your face on TV showed how greedy and determined you are to feed on Tax payers money, for Gods sake how could you think of Joining another party which for years you have been talking ill about?? Poliltics is indeed a dirty game. For Sembabule, we will always have a game between these two so called Prominent MPs, but all you have to know is that there other players better than you who can deliver for the poor.
Finally, i would appeal to President Yoweri Museveni, not to be threatened by the loosers, and continue with the new entrants, that shows you that the electorates are disappointed with the work done by those people close to you because of corruption, bribery, nepotism etc, may be Mr. President you can make them RDC's but again they will torture our dear electorates due frastration, so let them find their level and we move ahead.
For God and My Country.
Names with held.
