Leadership transition not a one man responsibility, says Mao

By AFAYO SHADRACH BETHEL
The Minister for Justice and Constitutional Affairs, Mr Norbert Mao, has asked the public to stop bothering him about the leadership transition, saying the process cannot be done by an individual.
Mr Mao, who is also the Democratic Party President General, signed a cooperation agreement with President Museveni in July last year.
Since then, he has experienced several attacks, including those orchestrated by some DP members, denouncing him as their president.
Speaking to the media during their weekly press conference in Kampala, Mr Mao said the DP believes in working together to bring change.
He however said they never talked about a peaceful transition with President Museveni and he would not go around telling people about what they discussed.
Mr Mao cautioned the electorate against political leaders who move from one group to another and create new slogans, saying they have all failed to make a change.
