KISORO: The NRM leadership has expressed confidence in winning the Kisoro District Woman Member of Parliament seat in the upcoming November by-election.
Party leaders made the statement on Thursday while joining Rose Kabagyeni, the NRM candidate, on her campaign trail in Chahafi Town Council, Murora, and Kanaba sub-counties.
Hon. Jacqueline Kyatuhaire, the NRM’s Deputy National Treasurer, downplayed internal disagreements among some party leaders, emphasizing that the ruling party has withstood the test of time and will not be weakened by such conflicts.
“The NRM is bigger than any individual. That’s why it has overcome internal contradictions among leaders and remains focused on winning elections,” Kyatuhaire said.
Kyatuhaire noted that the NRM has enjoyed strong support in Kisoro District for years and added, “We will build on this solid foundation by explaining the government’s livelihood programs aimed at improving people’s welfare.” She further stated, “Our supporters are firm and will not be swayed by the interests of a few selfish leaders. No one is bigger than the NRM or the people of Kisoro. They made their choice in the primaries, and that decision should be respected.”
Rose Kabagyeni, the NRM candidate, pledged to serve the people effectively by advocating for improved healthcare, education, and road infrastructure if elected to parliament for the remaining term before the 2026 general elections.
“I have served in parliament before and know how things operate in the house. I ask you to trust me with your votes so I can complete the projects left unfinished by the late Hon. Sarah Mateke,” Kabagyeni said.
She urged voters to turn out in large numbers for next week’s polls. “Be sure to cast your vote before heading to your gardens and businesses. Your voice is crucial in choosing the right person for the job,” she said.
Kabagyeni also discouraged voters from choosing leaders based on tribal or religious divisions, calling it a dangerous practice that undermines the core values and principles of the NRM.
“We are Ugandans facing similar challenges, and electing leaders based on tribe or religion is regressive, hindering progress and community development.”
