Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>The former Speaker of the 11th Parliament Jacob Oulanyah has been described as a man who has been respecting other opposition parties despite defecting from Uganda People\u2019s Congress Party and joined the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM)<\/p>\n

Oulanyah died on March 20, 2022 in Seattle, Washington.<\/p>\n

\u201cOpposition leaders should learn from the late Oulanyah that NRM is a home which welcomes everyone, when he joined NRM party he was a given a chance to lead others because of his capability and respect,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
