Aspirants for the Namisindwa District LCV position, alongside members of the District Executive Committee (DEC), have agreed on a harmonized joint campaign programme.


The joint campaigns are set to begin on Monday, 7th July, and run up to 21st July 2025. According to the NRM electoral roadmap, voting will take place on 24th July 2025.

Four aspirants are in the race for a chance to become the NRM flag bear for the position of LCV Chairperson for Namisindwa District. They include; Wataka Simiyu, Situma Maango, Bwayo Emma, and the incumbent, Wakweika Jackson.

According to the agreed schedule, campaigns will kick off on Monday, 7th July 2025, in Bukokho and Bumbo sub-counties, with open rallies planned at Kaboole Primary School and Bukokho Sub-county Headquarters.

The NRM District Chairperson, Aramazan Wabuko, emphasized that the guidelines require all candidates to participate in the joint rallies to be able to present their views. Wabuko called for peaceful, issue-based campaigns as opposed to personal attacks.

But Alex Molokoyi, the personal assistant to Wakweika Jackson and his representative at the meeting, stated that their candidate would not participate in the joint rallies. He cited security concerns and said they would follow their own campaign arrangement.

Bwayo Emma criticized the decision by Wakweika to opt out of the joint rallies, saying that such campaigns are intended to promote transparency and accountability. He stressed that incumbents have a duty to explain their track record and manifesto commitments to the electorate.
