NRM village registrars protest over shs10,000 daily allowance

Village registrars taking part in the National Resistance Movement (NRM) membership register update have protested over the sh10,000 they are given daily, claiming the money is too little yet billions of shillings were released for the exercise.

In Kampala, the registrars raised alarm on one of their whatsapp groups saying “bosses” are eating all the money….nebatuwa obutwalo without lunch!”

Another one called Ritah said: “We are doing excellent work on top of creating enmity and they are giving us peanuts”.

The exercise which started earlier this week will run until Sunday.

President Yoweri Museveni launched the update at Plot 10, the home of NRM where he warned the registrars against corruption and registering non-party members.

However, the men and women on the ground have vowed to include ghost members if they are not given more cash.

Reports indicated that the party released at least sh10 billion for the exercise.
