The United Folks’s Motion (UPM) has rejected the Standard Democratic Motion’s (PDM) request to withdraw its two members of parliament, Jan van Wyk and Frans Bertolini.
In a letter addressed to the speaker of the Nationwide Meeting, Peter Katjavivi, UPM appearing secretary normal Francis Huish on Tuesday accused the PDM of violating an settlement signed between the 2 events in August 2019.
Huish claimed the memorandum of understanding was particular to the 2019 elections and didn’t prolong to the upcoming 2024 elections.
He argued that the PDM’s request implies the UPM didn’t contribute to the success of the 2019 alliance, regardless of its assist, campaigning, and mobilisation efforts.
Huish claimed his celebration’s proper to function independently, and accused the PDM of making an attempt to mislead the UPM throughout the alliance.
He mentioned the UPM intends to take authorized motion towards the PDM for allegedly breaching the signed settlement.
“It’s towards this background that the UPM requests that the workplace of the speaker ignore this deceptive request,” Huish mentioned.
He mentioned the PDM “is in clear violation of the signed memorandum of understanding”.
