Shadrak Nzeire Kaguta Asks Those Who Don’t Support NRM To Stop Demanding Service Delivery

At a recent event in Bukomansimbi, Shadrak Nzeire Kaguta, the Chairperson of Kiruhura District’s National Resistance Movement (NRM), passionately addressed citizens. In his fervent speech, Nzeire urged individuals seeking government services to align their votes with the NRM during general elections, emphasizing the pivotal role of votes in translating to service delivery.

Expressing frustration, Nzeire highlighted the reciprocal nature of politics, asserting, “You always deny us during elections.” This candid assertion underscored the complex relationship between governance, political allegiance, and public service delivery in Uganda, where perceptions of fairness intersect with partisan interests.

Nzeire’s familial ties to President Museveni added scrutiny to his remarks, sparking discussions about nepotism and power dynamics within the ruling party. This incident brought to the forefront the ongoing tensions surrounding political participation and representation in Uganda, where debates over democracy and governance continue to shape the nation’s trajectory.

In addition to his political stance, Nzeire encouraged councilors to engage in income-generating activities through cooperatives, assuring them that government support would follow suit. The bursaries event, aimed at providing educational assistance, witnessed the support of over 600 children in primary, secondary, and tertiary institutions.

Seizing the moment, Brig Deus Ssande, the commander of the Kasijjagirwa army camp in Masaka city, emphasized the importance of education for the youth. He urged the people of Bukomansimbi to empower their children, stating that well-educated individuals contribute significantly to the country’s progress. Brig Ssande also reassured the community about the discipline of the army, expressing confidence that Uganda would remain free from conflict.
