Hon. Anita Among for the position of NRM 2nd National Vice Chairperson (Female).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The endorsement came during a well-attended delegates&#8217; meeting held on Friday, August 8, 2026, at the Ntungamo District Council Hall, demonstrating strong grassroots support for Speaker Among&#8217;s leadership bid ahead of the party&#8217;s upcoming elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaker Among was represented at the event by Hon. Dickson Kateshumbwa, Member of Parliament for Sheema Municipality, and Hon. Dan Atwijukire Kimosho, MP for Kazo County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hon. Kimosho praised the Speaker&#8217;s strong leadership and dedication to both the NRM and Uganda, stating that her election would strengthen the party&#8217;s position in Ugandan politics for decades to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He particularly commended Ntungamo residents for their united support of Speaker Among&#8217;s candidacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The overwhelming endorsement from Ntungamo reflects the people&#8217;s confidence in Speaker Among&#8217;s vision and her capacity to advance the party&#8217;s agenda.

endorsement motion was presented by District Speaker Twikiriize Nicholas Mugyenyi and seconded by Rubaare Sub-County Councillor John Kabeho, with full approval from the assembly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a moving moment, Ntungamo Deputy RDC Rosemary Atuhaire made a passionate appeal to delegates, kneeling as she urged continued support for President Yoweri Museveni and the NRM to sustain national peace and security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NRM Chairman Fred Muhinda reaffirmed the party&#8217;s dedication to grassroots mobilization and effective implementation of government programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The gathering showcased remarkable party unity as leaders and delegates united behind Speaker Among&#8217;s candidacy, indicating strong momentum for leadership continuity within the NRM.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ntungamo, Uganda &#8211; National Resistance Movement (NRM) delegates from Ntungamo District and Municipality have unanimously endorsed
