The Mission of NRM is to transform Uganda from a poor peasant society into a modern, industrial, united and prosperous society.

NRM is a national, broad based, inclusive, democratic, non-sectarian, multi-ideological, multi-interest and progressive mass organization. The NRM helped lift Uganda out of cyclic misery; got them out of the pit of tyranny and dehumanization. It also ended the shameful sectarianism promoted by colonialism and characteristic of the backward pre-industrial societies that do not have enough horizontal linkages. There is no doubt that the Movement was and still is the best system for a pre-industrial society like Uganda. The Movement system has been very democratic and very progressive. Apart from restoring the vote to the dis-enfranchised people of Uganda, NRM have empowered, in a very special way, the women, the youth, the disabled and the workers.

Power has been decentralized up to the village level. This is a most democratic system that brought unity to our people by ending unprincipled frictions in the villages. Such people should be identified and punished. There is no need to coerce a free Ugandan to agree with you. If somebody does not agree with you or is sceptical about your position, that is his/her right. You have no right to resent him or be violent towards him/her. Such attitudes are a negation of the freedom that is a product of the NRM Revolution. There is now political opposition and activity that goes unhindered provided its by peaceful means aiming for peaceful. It is their right.
