The NRM deputy secretary General Rose Namayanja who is in charge of the Kampala metropolitan area flagged off the materials including register books at Wakiso district headquarters.
Namayanja urged the registrars of the party across the country to ensure that all the villages receive the registration kits by Wednesday to avoid inconveniences.
“We put the kits in your hands and ask you to take full charge of the security,” Namayanja said.
She cautioned the registrars against any form of corruption or yielding to manipulations of some politicians who may want to interfere with the register.
“We shall arrest anybody who connives with politicians to alter the registers like including supporters of the opposition with intention of jeopardizing upcoming primary elections,” she stated.
