However, the party president, Gen. Mugisha Muntu told journalists in Najjanankumbi on Monday, that they are yet to receive the document from Justice Kavuma barring them from carrying out such activities especially prayers, claiming its their right as Ugandans.
Gen. Muntu said they would still meet for prayers today as has been the case, while police also vowed to stop them at any cost.
At Najjanankumbi, the party headquarters, police has deployed tens of officers to stop members from accessing the venue, where prayers are held every Tuesday.
