Dr. Kizza Besigye, has acknowledged that he has used his influence within the Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) through legitimate means.
This comes in response to claims by the embattled party president, Patrick Oboi Amuriat, who accuses Besigye of exerting too much control over the party, potentially causing conflicts.
The four-time presidential candidate clarified that he does not hold any decision-making positions within the party's organs. He pointed out that accusations against him have never been presented before the party's policy organs over the past five years, and if there were any contradictions, the delegate conference would be the organ to address them.
"The president should process the decisions of the party and if he meets any problem, he can refer those problems to another organ of the party," he said.
