Three parliamentary aspirants are warming up for the party primaries, this Thursday after walking door to door canvassing for votes in Entebbe Municipality.
The trio including Stephen Shyaka Gashaija, Jovia Tugume Namaara and Scholastica Jane Najjemba are contesting for the parliamentary seat aspirant in the coming general elections.
Najjemba is the outgoing Division ‘A’ chairperson and now contesting the parliamentary seat in Entebbe Municipality.
It’s now official that all roads will be leading to different polling stations in Entebbe constituency to vote for their yellow party flag parliamentary candidate to contest in the coming general elections, slated for next year 2026.
We have highly established that Gashaija has pulled out muscles and ready to win the next coming general elections slated for 2026.
Gashaija will be racing in the NRM party structures at different polling stations after injecting heavily into the party primaries.
Namaara will be disproving critics wrong and battling with Najjemba.
Namaara’s emergence as a potential candidate has sparked interest in the Entebbe constituency, which has been represented by several parliamentarians in the past, including Dr. David Matovu (NRM), Hon. Muhammad Kawuma (DP), and Rosemary Tumusiime Bikako (NRM).
Mbwatekamwa, who currently represents the constituency under the National Unity Platform (NUP), is facing criticism for allegedly not serving the constituents’ interests and failing to share the “national cake” with locals.
If she emerges victorious, she will then face off against Mbwatekamwa and other candidates from different political parties, including NUP’s Joyce Nabatta, Democratic Vincent Kayanja Depaul now begging for another political chance.
The NRM party’s decision to support Namaara is seen as a strategic move to reclaim the seat, which it previously owned.
Gashaija has all reasons to smile after getting assurance that the voters will be rallying behind him for waiting this long since the 2020 general elections.
He is raising dust from a humble background along the Hill Lane and spending like he doe’s care.
