Eddie Mugisha and Sub County Speaker Roland Magaba, as Kanoni positions himself as a reformist candidate determined to address long-standing service delivery gaps in the area.
Speaking to the media today after picking his nomination papers at the NRM headquarters in Muhanga Town, Ndyabahika said his resignation from his former position was driven by a desire to rescue Rwamucucu Sub County from what he termed “fake leadership.”
“I stepped down from my job to serve my people, who have suffered for too long under leaders who do not prioritize their welfare,” he declared.
With a strong background in water and sanitation projects, Ndyabahika highlighted the area’s acute water shortage as a primary concern.
He pledged to leverage his expertise to implement sustainable water solutions, ensuring residents have access to clean and reliable water.

“Our people deserve peace and security. I will work closely with local leaders and law enforcement to restore order,” he said.

His campaign is expected to focus on accountability, improved infrastructure, and better governance a message that may resonate with disillusioned constituents.

He attended Ibumba Primary School and Kigezi High School Primary for his Primary Leaving Examinations (PLE) before joining Kigezi College Butobere for O’ and A’ Levels.
He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Environment and a Master’s in Environmental Health and Safety from Uganda Christian University, along with certifications in Public Administration & Management (MUBS) and Water Resource Engineering (YILED Institute).
