Dr. Michael Lulume Bayigga, the Member of Parliament for Buikwe South and a prominent figure in the Democratic Party (DP), has officially crossed over to the newly formed People’s Front for Freedom (PFF).

Bayigga, who has made multiple attempts to lead Uganda’s oldest political party, now shifts his allegiance to the emerging PFF movement, a move seen as both symbolic and strategic ahead of its inaugural delegates’ conference scheduled for tomorrow.
Final confirmation of his defection is expected shortly after a high-level meeting with the PFF’s interim leadership, signaling a potential turning point in the opposition’s political realignments.
