KAMPALA – The ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) has announced mass registration and update of the party register.
A statement released by the party secretariat on Wednesday said the exercise starts on Monday and ends Sunday, March 15.
“The exercise will be carried out at village level by registrars assigned to do this duty by the secretariat,” the statement said.
“For the villages that were in existence as of July 2015, their registers have been prepared by the party secretariat with data of their members that were registered at the time,” the secretariat added.
Blank booklets have been provided for the newly created villages.
According to the secretariat, the exercise is meant to allow members to check the accuracy of their particulars on the 2015 register.
The exercise will also allow the secretariat to register new members, remove ineligible ones as well as inform members of their voting villages.
For anyone to register, they must be a citizen of Uganda, aged 16 and above, residing in that village and willing to be a member of NRM.
“A person shall be deleted from the register if that person died, left the party, shifted from the area or is a non-citizen,” the statement signed by Rogers Mulindwa, the senior manager in charge of information at the NRM secretariat, said.
Later, the membership card, (Endaga Yello) will be issued.
