The National Resistance Movement party offices in Luweero district have been close due to accumulated rent arrears. The Luweero District NRM party office operates in rented premises belonging to Kasoma and Sons Enterprises Limited, a short distance from the district headquarters.

Mahad Sserunkuma, the Manager of Kasoma and Sons Enterprises Limited stormed the premises yesterday and threw out the party officials. He accused the party of none payment of rent for the last eight months to the tune of Shillings 1.6 million.

David Kamugisha, the Luweero District NRM Registrar, describes the closure of the party offices as illegal and unfair, saying the landlord didn't give them any notice. He pleaded with Sserunkuma to open the offices as he writes to the NRM Secretariat over the arrears.Ronald Ndawula, the Luweero District NRM Chairperson, says the officials at the NRM secretariat don't pick calls, which has made it difficult for him to follow up on the rent. He says it is unfortunate for the office to be closed when they need it most to coordinate and campaign for party candidates in the LC 1 polls.
