The National Unity Platform (NUP) party has pledged to open up more field offices to increase mobilization across the country ahead of the 2026 general polls.
These were set as the party concluded its five-day tour of the western region.
While addressing members of the press at the Red Motel in Mbarara city, Robert Kyagulanyi promised that the party was set to open offices in districts where they had not yet been established.
“We were in Ntungamo yesterday, and our supporters asked us to open a coordinating office, and we have already asked our mobilizers to look for space and open one, and we shall do the same for other districts where we do not have offices,” Kyagulanyi said.
The party president also called upon the people of western Uganda to embrace change because the problems of the people of western Uganda are not different from those of other Ugandans countrywide.
“People think that western Uganda is better off than other parts of the country, but we have moved around and realized that the problems of Ugandans are the same: unemployment, poor state of roads, no piped water and electricity, no drugs in hospitals, and so many other similar problems,” Kyagulanyi added.
During the tour, NUP visited Bundibugyo, Bushenyi, Rukungiri, and Ntungamo and concluded the tour with Isingiro district.
Kyagulanyi also confirmed that starting on July 25, 2024, the party leadership will head to Eastern Uganda in the districts of Bugweri, Palisa, and Soroti.(nexus)
