He furthered accused the Katongo faction of using the party instruments such as slogans and flag , stressing that their actions are violating the party constitution as he threatened legal actions against them.

“We are going to take legal action against this group (Besigye) not because they are running around the country but because they are misusing and abusing the instruments that are portraying the FDC,” Amuriat partly said.
