A group of supporters of Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba under the MK Movement have rebranded to Patriotic League of Uganda.
This was unveiled during a function held at their headquarters in Naguru on Wednesday.
Speaking during the function, the group chairperson and Igara East MP, Michael Mawanda said having started in April 2022, as a spontaneous and diverse group of Ugandans that rallied around Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba to appreciate his military service, and the service of his army comrades to the country, the MK Movement has mobilized several Ugandans towards this cause.
“We hereby constitute ourselves into a civic organization and assume and adopt a new name and identity of the Patriotic League of Uganda with the aim of working towards reviving in Ugandans a spirit of good citizenship, national pride, national service, protection of vulnerable persons, combating corruption and wastage of public resources, and protection of the environment,” Mawanda said.
He noted that the group undertakes to contribute in a civil capacity, towards mobilizing Ugandans to fulfil their civic duties as citizens of the country, for the benefit of society as a whole and to jealously guard the unique natural and social harmony that makes Uganda.
“We commit to ensure that the Patriotic League of Uganda’s efforts towards reviving patriotism will remain non-partisan, non- denominational and non-sectarian.”
