Senior economist and legal counsel, Patrick Katabaazi Kiconco, has been officially declared the National Resistance Movement (NRM) Chairperson for Rwamucucu Sub-county following an uncontested nomination process.
Kiconco, who is also a candidate for the Rukiga County parliamentary seat, made a grand entrance at the Rwamucucu Sub-county Headquarters in a jubilant procession. Hundreds of enthusiastic supporters, including newly elected members of the NRM Electoral College, accompanied him from his residence near Rushebeya Trading Centre to the polling station.
The NRM Sub-county Registrar, Henry Kamugisha, confirmed Kiconco’s victory, announcing him as the unopposed winner after no other candidates presented nominations.
Addressing supporters at his home later in the day, Kiconco expressed deep gratitude for the unchallenged endorsement. He pledged to serve all constituents equitably and vowed to champion inclusive socio-economic transformation throughout Rukiga District.
“This is not just a personal victory but a collective win for the people of Rwamucucu, who believe in unity and progress,” Kiconco said. “I am committed to serving you with integrity and without discrimination.”
He also called on fellow NRM leaders to strengthen grassroots mobilization ahead of the forthcoming general elections to secure the party’s dominance at all levels.
