Former Prime Minister John Patrick Amama Mbabazi has said that although he has resumed working with President Museveni, the two have not reconciled on the reasons for their initial fallout.
According to Mbabazi, when the President invited him for talks, they agreed to work together on some aspects and first put aside their differences.
“He invited me and as you know, I believe just because I don’t agree with an individual on some aspects, then I shouldn’t work with him,” he said.
“So the President asked me to work with him on other things where we agree and I agreed. So, I and he agreed that we work together and continue talking until we reach an agreement on other things,” he said.
The former premier was speaking at a service to welcome the archbishop of the church of Uganda Dr Stephen Kaziimba to Kinkizi diocese at St Peter’s cathedral Nyakatare on Sunday.
He urged individuals to concentrate on reconciling egos and building peace if real development is to be achieved.
Mbabazi stood against President Museveni in 2016 after he was sacked as prime minister for reportedly harbouring presidential ambitions.
He has since returned to the government as a special presidential envoy to South Sudan and as the chairman of the African Global Security Foundation, which was launched on February 13 in Dakar, Senegal.
The African Global Security has been set up by the founding member states of Congo Brazzaville, Democratic Republic of Congo, Mauritania, Senegal, Togo, and Uganda.
