  • Voluntary Exercise: NUP leadership encourages well-wishers to contribute voluntarily to the party’s progress, emphasizing that the movement is “powered by the people”.
  • No Reliance on Foreign Donors: NUP leader Bobi Wine stated, “We’re not waiting for foreign donors or big corporations. This movement is powered by the people,” highlighting the party’s focus on grassroots support.
  • Accountability Measures: NUP officials will unveil detailed fundraising mechanisms and accountability measures to ensure transparency in the fundraising process.

Significance of the Fundraising Drive:

  • Challenge to Ruling Party: NUP’s early mobilization signals the party’s intent to mount an expansive grassroots campaign to challenge the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) and President Yoweri Museveni.
  • Grassroots Support: The fundraising drive aims to harness financial support from supporters and well-wishers across the country and beyond, demonstrating NUP’s commitment to people-powered politics.
