According to Moses Mulondo, UPPA president, some of the 14 key points; need to restructure government, finding lasting solution to sectarianism in state institutions, enact necessary constitutional and electoral reforms to guarantee free and fair elections, eliminate corruption and militarism, participation of key stakeholders in the budgeting process and hindrances to the development of the multiparty democracy among others.
He adds that, as the fourth estate which is the eye and ear of the public hold keen interest more than any other category of professionals in as far as such a matter of national importance is concerned because they must inform well the audiences.
