Yesterday, top NRM members led by presidential advisor David Mafabi, brought together  youth leaders, academicians and MPs, resolved that the NRM party should remove the age limit to allow President Yoweri Museveni continue leading the country beyond 2021.

Article 102 of the Constitution which some now want amended does not allow a person of 75 years and above to contest for presidency.
