Deputy Speaker Jacob Oulanyah has said he is not vying for the position of NRM Vice Chairman for Northern Region as it has recently been advertised.

Oulanyah’s clarification comes at the back of Museveni’s warning to NRM party members against early campaigns. Posters of Oulanyah were circulating through last week.

“I have social media handlers. I was not even in the country. I came back yesterday (Saturday) late afternoon. So certainly, I was not among the people mentioned,” Oulanyah revealed to journalists.

Museveni who is the NRM chairman advised his party members not to rush into campaigns, but instead focus on the problems affecting the ordinary people and learning the NRM ideology.
