Responding to queries from supporters at Maddu town in Gomba district who asked him whether he has what it takes to be commander-in-chief of the armed forces yet he is not a soldier like the incumbent, Museveni.
Bidandi said:
“When I meet the army generals, including President (Yoweri) Museveni, we talk freely as friends. They refer to me as Mzee Bidandi, which means they respect me and I do the same. I do not have a problem with Museveni, only that he went for the third term, which I did not agree with,”
“The army is now professionalised and I believe they can handle change, especially when a person like me is elected. You should also know that the army belongs to the country and not individuals.”
On himself Bidandi said:
“We need a person who is trustworthy, accountable and rich at heart and that is me. Have you ever heard that I stole anything? Trust me, together we shall deliver.”
