The President of the National Unity Platform, Robert Kyagulanyi, alias Bobi Wine, on Monday met NUP leaders from greater Northern Uganda in Gulu City.
The meeting held at the Okura Hotel in Gulu City brought in NUP leaders across West Nile, Acholi, Lango, and Karamoja.
Speaking to the leaders, Bobi Wine said that the divide between the North and Central Uganda was deliberately created by the sitting government to keep people fighting among themselves.
He appealed to the NUP grassroots leaders in Northern Uganda to remain resilient and focused amidst many threats and intimidation from state officials.
He also appealed to the leaders to educate themselves and research the history and current affairs of Uganda so that they make informed decisions.
NUP Secretary General Lewis Rubongoya said that the youths should get ready to participate in the youth election, which is slated for the 6th of June.
Harriet Ageno, a NUP aspirant for Dokolo Woman MP, said that they have been greatly energized by the coming of NUP President Hon. Kyagulanyi to Northern Uganda, adding that they are ready to participate and campaign for their party in the upcoming general election
