The Government Chief Whip and NRM Parliamentary Caucus Chairperson, Thomas Tayebwa has said that as the ruling party Caucus, they are yet to receive the proposal to amend the Presidential Election Act where only Members of Parliament will vote for the Head of State.

Tayebwa wants Ugandans to appreciate that the proposed system is one of the known political systems practiced by successful democracies like Great Britain, Italy, Canada, etc.

He says that once the proposal is brought to the caucus, full consultations will be made with stakeholders.
