Dr. Tanga made the call in Najjembe town Council in Lugazi in Buikwe district, where he warned those who attempt to frustrate the process will be held to account in the courts of law.
He noted that there are some politicians that want to contest and want to take control, but the party shall not allow the staff to take orders only from the party secretariat officials.
