NRM bigwigs led by the first vice chairman Alhaji Moses Kigongo, Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja and deputy secretary General Rose Namayanja yesterday campaigned for the party flagbearer, Uthuman Mubarak Mugisha in the LCV by-election.
This was during a district conference of NRM leaders held at Dwoli Church of Uganda Primary School ahead of the September, 14 by-election.
“NRM supporters chose Mugisha and so everybody in the party ought to respect their decision. They explicitly spoke and nobody can change it,” Kigongo said as he addressed the NRM structural leaders.
He called upon former aspirants in the recently held primaries who have returned in the race as independents to respect the will of the people,
“I appeal to you to support the flag bearer as you strategise for general elections of 2026.”
Kigongo asked the NRM members who are mobilizing for their candidate to remain respectful and use
“We are all here for NRM not for an individual. We have no right to belittle or harass anybody. The NRM liberators who former governments undermined were able to fight and win the war.”
