Hellen Nakimuli, has drawn five candidates: NRM&#8217;s Idah Nabayiga, NUP&#8217;s Irene Nampala, and Independents Hellen Nagawa, Sharifah Kaala, and Agnes Nassuuna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The late Hon. Nakimuli, who was re-elected in January 2026 for a second term under the National Unity Platform, passed away on April 19, 2026, at Kampala International Hospital in Bushenyi following an unsuccessful surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The legislator&#8217;s passing, just months into her new term, created the vacancy that has now set the stage for a competitive by-election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>If you have a developing story, tip-off, or eyewitness account, reach out to our editorial team today.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
