Kampala, Uganda – In a strategic move to solidify its position in the upcoming electoral cycle, the National Resistance Movement (NRM) has seen significant developments regarding its candidacies, particularly for the hotly contested Kampala Central Member of Parliament seat.
Minister for Kampala, Hajat Minsa Kabanda, now stands as the NRM’s unopposed flagbearer for the Kampala Central MP position. This follows the voluntary withdrawal of two fellow aspirants, Charles Nambafu and Baker Kyambadde.Speaking from the NRM secretariat, both Nambafu and Kyambadde affirmed their decision to step aside, citing a desire to avert further internal party conflicts that could inadvertently benefit the opposition. Kabanda, for her part, swiftly denied any allegations of financial inducement, emphasizing that the candidates' decision was made in the best interest of party unity and cohesion.
