As the country gears up to the 2026 general election early next year, internal political primaries are realigning key individuals who are likely to stir the nation’s leadership for the five years ahead.
The National Resistance Movement (NRM) party having governed Uganda for the last three decades and half looks better placed to retain their governance of the Uganda as per the results coming from its primaries.
Why NRM poised to retain leadership
Judging from fielding of candidates across all the constituencies and organised internal elections means that the party will have less challenges ahead of the general elections which is advantageous to the party as compared to other political parties.
The internal party primaries are also threshing credible candidates that will compete against candidates from other political parties. This process further solidifies and markets the party across the nation.
So, with the outcome of the internal primaries for card holders at constituency out, means that some of those already declared card winners will be legislators at the national assembly.
