He argued that strong leadership inherently connected to the ruling party is essential for tangible development.
Addressing enthusiastic crowds, Baryayanga pledged to be the unwavering voice for Kabale in Kampala, vowing to robustly lobby so the municipality secures its share of national programs and is not left behind.
Echoing a central campaign theme for the NRM, he urged voters to cast their ballots for President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni and all party flag bearers to foster seamless connectivity and development continuity.
Hon. Baryayanga then shifted focus to pressing local concerns, expressing deep concern over widespread reports that women and youth are failing to access benefits from key national initiatives.
“I am troubled that our women and youth cannot access UWEP and other livelihood funds. My mission will be to cut through the bureaucracy and ensure these resources reach the people of Kabale,” Baryayanga stated.
He pledged to install approximately 100 high-intensity street security lights in poorly lit and hidden areas across the municipality, areas identified as hotspots for criminal activity.
Baryayanga stated the plan is a direct response to constituents’ security fears, specifically targeting the darkness exploited by criminals, with the goal of enhancing safety and reclaiming public streets.
“We are directly responding to our people’s fears by reclaiming our streets. This initiative will make it difficult for crime to thrive by eliminating the darkness exploited by thieves and bag snatchers,” he explained.
Voters in attendance responded positively to the specific pledges, particularly the security lighting proposal and the promise to troubleshoot failing national programs, which many cited as a longstanding frustration.
