Among the business to be handled by the members today, is election of Speaker and deputy speaker.
The speakership race has so far attracted Rebecca Kadaga who last evening was dropped by NRM Central Executive Committee but announced she would as independent, her former deputy Jacob Oulanya who is the choice of CEC, FDCs Ibrahim Ssemujju, who was the former Opposition chief whip in the 10th Parliament, DP’s Richard Ssebamala and Rakai Woman MP Juliet Kinyamatama.
Kinyamatama who is an independent NRM leaning MP was however turned away on Thursday because her name was not in the party’s register.
