Will DP, UPC emerge from the ashes?

In 1954, the Democratic Party was founded. Six years later, in 1960, the Uganda People’s Congress was also established. For decades, these two organisations were the main political parties in Uganda, rooted as they were in the essentials of the country’s history and social life, from religion to the struggle for independence. The UPC led Uganda to independence in October 1962. The heyday of these two historic parties now seems like a long time ago.
