Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>As the dust settles on the fractious NRM primaries, leaving many voters disillusioned and frustrated, National Unity Platform (NUP) aspirants are seizing the moment to energize the electorate and reawaken the political mood in Kamuli Municipality.<\/b><\/p>\n

Silver Segonga, widely known among locals as “Kyaiffe Kubwaiffe”, has launched a door-to-door campaign, positioning himself as the change candidate under the NUP umbrella.<\/p>\n

With internal party vetting for NUP flag bearers underway, Segonga is actively engaging residents, promising a new era of people-centered leadership.<\/p>\n

\u201cBring your frustrations from the yellow bus and find better shelter under the umbrella. We share your pain, hopes, and dreams,\u201d Segonga told voters.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen things ripen and turn yellow, the next stage is rotting. The bus has mechanical problems and breakdowns\u2014it\u2019s time to step off.\u201d<\/p>\n

He described his early campaign as a \u201ctour of duty\u201d meant to introduce himself to the electorate, reconnect disillusioned NRM supporters, and prepare the ground for his upcoming manifesto launch.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe didn\u2019t want to interfere with NRM\u2019s internal process. Now that it has left many behind, we are stepping in to provide guidance and build momentum for progressive leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n

Joining Segonga on the trail was Chris Wabwire, a former NRM district councillor for Buzaaya County who has since crossed to NUP.<\/p>\n

He emphasized the party\u2019s commitment to integrity, discipline, and grassroots service.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are focusing on credible, community-rooted individuals to drive the transformative agenda NUP stands for,\u201d Wabwire said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur vetting process gives 40% weight to internal evaluation and 60% to grassroots performance. We\u2019re ready to take on the regime with candidates who are truly in touch with the people.\u201d<\/p>\n

At Kamuli Central Market, Nalongo Betti, a vocal matooke vendor popularly known as Mama Katale, expressed her discontent with the ruling party.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe NRM has let us down with its fake elections. How do we vote and they announce different winners? We\u2019re shifting to serious opposition to wake them up,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Vendors and taxi operators at Kamuli Park also voiced their grievances, criticizing the poor state of the facility and accusing the ruling party of being out of touch.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe ruling party has overstayed and lost direction. It has been hijacked by mafias. Our park is a mess, and no one seems to care,\u201d one operator lamented.<\/p>\n
