I need you delegates to support me so I become the Vice Chairperson for Western Uganda,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Nzeire\u2019s entry into the race sets up a high-profile showdown with the incumbent, ICT Minister Dr. Chris Baryomunsi, a long-serving party figure and Cabinet member.<\/p>\n<p>While Baryomunsi is running on his record of government service and policy leadership, Nzeire is emphasizing grassroots mobilization and loyalty to the party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was the NRM district Chairperson for Kiruhura, but I didn\u2019t stand for re-election. Now I\u2019m jobless,\u201d Nzeire said, adding that his work for the party over the years deserves recognition and elevation to the regional executive position.<\/p>\n<p>His candidacy adds a new twist to the internal politics of the ruling party, with speculation already swirling about whether his close familial ties to President Museveni could tilt the race in his favor.<\/p>\n<p>Although Nzeire has held a relatively low public profile, he is well-known in Kiruhura and across parts of western Uganda for his longtime role in party mobilization.<\/p>\n<p>His declaration taps into NRM\u2019s often personality-driven internal contests, and the outcome may reveal much about how influence and loyalty are rewarded within the party structures.<\/p>\n<p>As the race heats up, all eyes are on how the NRM Central Executive Committee and grassroots delegates weigh the competing credentials of experience, visibility, and legacy in choosing their next Western Uganda Vice Chairperson.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Uganda<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
