“The caucus unanimously resolved that the MPs should appear before the disciplinary committee. The committee will then decide what action to be taken,” said Ms Evelyn Anite, the NRM Caucus spokesperson.

According to our sources close to these said rebel Mps , they honoured the Kyankwanzi invitation  to listen in on the proceedings and plot how to defeat the proposed punitive party rules that are expected to be adopted during the retreat. The proposed rules aim at  dealing  with the growing opposition and infighting within the party.
