Kampala, Uganda:
The Office of the National Chairman (ONC) Kyambogo has launched a groundbreaking digital Vote Protection and Monitoring System dedicated to safeguard President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni’s votes in the 2026 General Elections, marking one of the boldest and most technologically advanced electoral interventions by the National Chairman’s office to date.

The system, developed by the ICT Department of State House under the supervision of Hajjat Hamida Kibirige, was unveiled Friday, November 14, 2025, by ONC Manager SPA/PA Hajjat Hadijah Namyalo in a high-energy ceremony attended by district coordinators, security officials, and senior presidential advisors.

The platform, blends high-level digital intelligence, real-time field reporting, and a nationwide database of 144,000 vote protectors, two in every village, recruited during last year’s ONC Vote Protection Exercise .

The system, according to Hajat Namyalo, will monitor polling stations, track field coordinators, verify identities, detect anomalies, and counter electoral malpractice. She added that the IT platform, also available in the mobile app version, is fully designed to neutralize vote rigging, eliminate false intelligence, and ensure that Museveni’s votes are protected “to the maximum.”

This system is going to help us monitor, guide, and give us knowledge on Museveni’s win, on protecting our gains, on protecting his vote,” Namyalo said. “We are moving from analogue to digital. Technology can’t lie. Human intelligence can be concocted, technology cannot.

She noted that mobilising crowds is easy, but converting rallies into actual votes requires structure, alertness and coordination, the core reason the vote protection system was designed.

On working with other NRM units, Hajjat emphasized her role in unifying government structures, noting that the new system is intentionally engineered to tighten coordination across all state organs.

This system strengthens our cooperation as Government, she said.
“It integrates data from ministries, agencies, State House departments and the NRM Secretariat because we must work as one machinery.
My duty is to ensure cohesion so that Government services flow seamlessly to the Wanainchi.”

Speaking at the same function, Nakawa District Internal Security Officer (DISO), Lt. Moses Tashobya, who also represented the RCC of Nakawa, delivered a fiery warning to coordinators against absenteeism, laxity, and casual behaviour on polling day.

If you leave your polling station to go for lunch, what do you think the enemy is doing in those minutes? On that day, even love calls can wait, Tashobya warned, triggering murmurs of agreement.
He urged vote protectors to remain at polling stations without blinking: “Do not leave the station. Do not take appointments. Do not complain after losing votes you failed to protect. If you are not ready, hand your papers to Madam. Veterans are ready to serve. Tashobya asserted.

Lt Tashobya called for unity between ONC, RDCs, DISOs, CAOs, DPCs and NRM structures. “Our purpose is not to fight each other. It is to lure people to join our run. Be patient like Mzee. Accommodate challenges, coordinate. That’s how peace prevails,” he said.

At the same function, the Senior Presidential Advisor on Special Duties and ONC attaché, David Kenneth Mafabi, delivered a powerful reassurance on behalf of President Museveni, reading a verbatim written message from the National Chairman in which he assigned Hajjat Namyalo full authority to oversee the protection of his votes and prevent the kind of electoral theft experienced in 2021.

Mr Mafabi dismissed circulating claims that ONC would not manage the 2026 vote protection exercise, describing them as “opportunistic lies fueled by political panic.”

“This message from the National Chairman is clear and direct. The ONC will spearhead the 2026 vote protection strategy, no one should mislead you,” Mafabi said, rallying coordinators to commit fully, describing the system as a “historic weapon against rigging.

Today, we kicked off with a vibrant rally in Ngora District, where I took a moment to reflect on our remarkable journey. We've come a long way since the tragic accident in Mukura that forced many into refugee camps. Today, we enjoy peace and stability, and we're committed to addressing our remaining social needs. To this end, we're constructing new Health Centre IIIs in Ngora, Agirigiroi, and Morukakise, as well as staff quarters at Mukura Health Centre III. Our government is also investing in a solar-powered water supply system in Olilim and the Lake Kyoga multi-purpose gravity flow scheme, which will benefit four districts in Teso, including Ngora. Furthermore, UGX 1.7 billion has been allocated to Emyooga SACCOs, empowering households to break the cycle of poverty. The NRM has shown us the way forward. It's time to choose: do we prioritize personal interests or work towards development for all? The choice is ours.

Let us demonstrate that our choices are driven by the desire for development and progress, rather than intimidation or financial gain. We must choose leaders who will collaborate seamlessly with fellow NRM leaders and with President Museveni, ensuring a cohesive approach to the challenges we face.

Instead, focus on candidates who are dedicated to creating opportunities for all youth, fostering an environment where everyone can thrive. Your vote is a powerful tool for change, and it is imperative that you use it wisely.

As you step into the voting arena,remember that your decision impacts not only your future but also the future of our nation.

NRM CEC Aspirants Slam Vetting Process, Demand Party Reforms 🚨

Four youthful aspirants vying for key Central Executive Committee (CEC) positions in the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) party have strongly criticized the vetting process, describing it as "rigged and unfair." The aspirants, led by Hakim Kyeswa, NRM National Vice Chairperson for Central, alongside Buyela Christopher (Eastern), Kyanika Rehema (Women's League), and Sadat Sserugo (Kampala), spoke out at a joint press briefing in Kampala.

The group condemned the involvement of incumbent CEC members in the vetting process, arguing that it creates an unfair advantage. "You can't vet me while I'm running against you," Kyeswa said. "This is political malpractice. We need open, fair platforms where all candidates are scrutinized equally."

The aspirants called for immediate constitutional reforms ahead of the National Delegates Conference scheduled for August 27-28. They demanded that the conference be used to amend outdated sections of the NRM constitution and allow meaningful grassroots participation, particularly on issues like the qualifications of district and village registrars.

Buyela Christopher, an Eastern CEC aspirant, criticized the current leadership, questioning the absence of representation for Eastern Uganda. "Where is Mike Mukula's office in the East? For 20 years, Eastern Uganda has had no real representation," he said, accusing current CEC members of being out of touch and prioritizing personal interests over party building.

Kyanika Rehema echoed frustrations among women in the party, stating that the NRM Women's League has become symbolic and disconnected. "Women at the grassroots are demoralized. I'm here to be a voice for the voiceless," she said.

The quartet demanded joint campaign events with incumbents, allowing voters to compare visions and track records. They warned that avoiding open debate would hurt the party in 2026. While pledging loyalty to President Museveni, the group cautioned that without reform, NRM risks losing its core support, especially among the youth.

Key Demands:

- Immediate constitutional reforms
- Open and fair vetting process
- Joint campaign events with incumbents
- Meaningful grassroots participation in party decision-making

The aspirants' call for reform highlights the growing desire for change within the NRM party. Will their demands be heard, or will the party's old guards resist change? Only time will tell.

By Kyeswa Hakim

Saturday, July 05, 2025, witnessed history being made. The National Resistance Movement (NRM) unanimously endorsed President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni as the ruling party’s sole presidential candidate for the 2026 general elections. This momentous decision did not come by chance; it was a culmination of relentless grassroots mobilization, unwavering loyalty, and the bold leadership of one woman: Hajat Hadijah Namyalo, the Head of the Office of the National Chairman (ONC) and Chief Mobilizer of the Bazzukulu.

The Backstory: A Plot to Force Museveni Out of power

Immediately after the 2021 elections, a dangerous narrative began circulating, not from the opposition but from within NRM’s own ranks. Some within the party, including high-ranking officials and even those close to the President, began pushing the idea that Museveni’s time was up. They claimed that the party election losses in Buganda and Busoga were a sign that he should retire.

This was not just political analysis; it was a well-orchestrated scheme by the power-hungry elements who sought to force a transition, not because Museveni had failed, but because they wanted to take over. At a time when the President was focused on rebuilding the economy post-COVID-19 and consolidating national stability, these forces were busy planting seeds of doubt.

The Rise of Namyalo and the “Tova Ku Main” Revolution

Amidst this political storm, one woman stood firm, the Chief Muzzukulu Hajat Hadijah Namyalo. While others whispered behind closed doors, she took to the streets, rallying the youth and the masses under the now-famous slogan: “Tova Ku Main”

Many underestimated her. The political mafias within NRM thought she was just another appointee who would fade away. But Namyalo proved them wrong. With minimal resources but maximum determination, she traversed the country, reigniting the NRM spirit among the youth. She made it fashionable again to wear yellow in places like Kiseka Market, a place once considered hostile to the NRM.

Museveni’s Own Words Confirm Namyalo’s Impact

Today, as President Museveni accepted his nomination, he publicly acknowledged the role of the Bazzukulu and Namyalo’s mobilization efforts. “The Bazzukulu said Tova Ku Main, and I decided to come back,” he declared. These words are not just a passing remark; they are a testament to the power of grassroots mobilization and the loyalty of Ugandans who still believe in their leader.

A Hero Deserving of National Recognition

Namyalo’s work has not been easy. She has faced resistance, sabotage, and even open hostility from those whose selfish agendas she disrupted. Yet, she remained steadfast, proving that true leadership is about conviction, not convenience.

Today, as NRM celebrates Museveni’s sole candidacy, we must also celebrate Namyalo—a fearless mobilizer, a unifier, and a true hero of this movement. She didn’t just save Museveni from a forced retirement; she saved NRM from internal disintegration and set the stage for another historic victory in 2026.

The Journey Ahead;

While today’s nomination is a milestone, the work is not yet done. Namyalo and the entire NRM fraternity must now double their efforts to ensure a resounding victory in 2026. The opposition will throw everything they have, but with a united NRM and a motivated grassroots base, victory is certain.
Congratulations, President Museveni! Congratulations, Hajat Hadijah Namyalo!

Thousands of Katwe Bazzukulu empowered as Hajjat Namyalo rallies youth discipline, focus ahead 2026 elections

Hajjat Hadijah Namyalo Uzeiye, Senior Presidential Advisor and National Coordinator for Bazzukulu under the Office of the National Chairman (ONC), has called on youth groups, ghetto communities, and women in Makindye Division to remain disciplined, reject opportunists, and uphold the values of the National Resistance Movement (NRM) as Uganda heads toward the 2026 general elections.

Speaking on Wednesday afternoon at Katwe Ku Kisaawe during a massive empowerment event themed Abanaku Tweyambe, Hajjat Namyalo emphasized that the support being extended is not only a tool for economic liberation but also a call to responsibility and purpose.

This support is meant to help you rise out of poverty, but I am also here to remind you that discipline and unity are critical, she said.
Do not allow self-seekers to misuse you for acts that contradict our party’s values and Jajja’s vision. The NRM stands for peace, progress, and dignity.

During the event, hundreds of youth braved the midday heat to receive empowerment tools and listen to Hajjat Namyalo’s message. Over 30 toolboxes, 150 mattresses, 50 sewing machines, 50 welding machines, 20 car washers, 20 ovens, 50 hair and hand dryers, five bricklaying machines, 20 popcorn machines, and 10 groundnut grinders were distributed to various youth and women groups. In addition, football jerseys and boxing jabs were handed out to support local sports talent and foster teamwork in the ghettos.

Hajjat Namyalo also used the platform to mobilize support for President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni’s re-election bid, urging the Bazzukulu to mark July 5th as a pivotal moment when the President will be officially nominated as the NRM’s flag bearer and National Chairman.

Let us stand ready to show the country that Makindye and Kampala are firmly behind Jajja’s leadership. We must mobilize peacefully, without violence, because that is the legacy our Chairman upholds, she stated.

Apostle Benson Kayondo of the Reformed Generation of Pastors and Preachers Association, a co-organizer of the event, commended the ONC for transforming lives in underserved communities.

This initiative is changing the face of the ghettos. Many families had lost hope. Today, they walk away with tools and skills to start afresh,” he said.

Beneficiaries echoed this sentiment. Nakiwogo Sarah, a single mother from Katwe, expressed deep gratitude: “This sewing machine will help me take care of my children. I’m grateful for this opportunity to rebuild my life.

Makindye Deputy RCC Caroline Nashemeza praised President Museveni for supporting ONC’s grassroots work.

Many have been left behind due to bottlenecks in formal government programs. This initiative fills that gap and gives real hope. As we approach 2026, let’s reject the protest vote and rally behind President Museveni.

The event drew a host of NRM aspirants, including Kampala Lord Mayor hopefuls Kizito Moses Nsubuga and Dr. Thaddeus Musoke Nagenda, Kampala Woman MP aspirants Shamim Nanfuka and Kenyangi Safina, Makindye West hopeful Keita Doreen Kagabi, and Makindye Division Mayor Yasini Omari.

The day concluded with electrifying performances from top Ugandan artists including Gravity Omutujju, Ykee Benda, and Sanyo, alongside several local Makindye talents, all celebrating the spirit of empowerment, unity, and resilience

Hajjat Namyalo Unleashes Anti-Poverty Drive in Katwe: ONC’s Empowerment Campaign Set to Transform Lives on July 4th.

The Office of the National Chairman (ONC), under the stewardship of Hajjat Hadijah Namyalo, today held a press conference at her office in Kyambogo to officially unveil a bold and transformative anti-poverty campaign scheduled for July 4th, 2025 in Katwe, Makindye Division.

The initiative, dubbed “Abanaku Tweyambe Wealth Creation Empowerment”, is designed to boost household incomes and uplift the livelihoods of thousands of Ugandans—particularly vulnerable groups such as unemployed youth, women, the elderly, s*x workers, and slum dwellers.

Speaking at the launch, Hajjat Namyalo emphasized the campaign’s practical approach to self-empowerment through direct support. The ONC will be distributing business startup kits including salon equipment, sewing machines, carpentry tools, popcorn machines, and boda boda motorcycles—tools meant to promote self-reliance and break the cycle of poverty.

“This is just the beginning. We shall not rest until all parts of the country benefit,” she said.

While several government programs such as Emyooga, the Parish Development Model, and Operation Wealth Creation are already tackling poverty alleviation, Hajjat Namyalo revealed that President Museveni personally took interest in this unique ONC-led initiative focused on direct community empowerment.

“People from different areas have been calling us since last year, asking for support,” she noted. “I kept pushing the President, even with limited funds. My persistence paid off—and that’s why we’re here today.

”The campaign has already made its mark in various parts of the country, including Luwero, Mukono, the Acholi Sub-Region, Ankole, and others—demonstrating ONC’s commitment to extending wealth creation opportunities to all corners of Uganda in line with President Museveni’s broader vision for socio-economic transformation.

ONC Boss Namyalo pledges full support to Pastor Bugembe’s 20-year music celebration
Kampala, Uganda: The Office of the National Chairman (ONC) under the leadership of Senior Presidential Advisor and National Coordinator Bazzukulu, SPA Hajjat Hadijah Namyalo Uzeiye, has pledged full support for Pastor Wilson Bugembe’s upcoming 20-year gospel music celebration slated for August 8, 2025 at Kampala Serena Hotel.

The ONC boss hosted the celebrated pastor and gospel singer at her Kyambogo office on Thursday, July 19, and reaffirmed the institution’s commitment to promoting talent, youth empowerment, and positive community influence through the arts.

Hajjat Namyalo lauded Pastor Bugembe’s contribution to Uganda’s spiritual and cultural fabric, noting that his success reflects the fruits of the peace and stability brought about by President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni’s leadership.

“As ONC, we celebrate and support talents that inspire and uplift society and promote Bazzukulu to thrive. Pastor Bugembe is a product of the peaceful and enabling environment that our Jajja H.E. Kaguta Museveni has fought to build. His journey is a testimony to what is possible under NRM leadership,” the Chief Muzzukulu said

Hajjat pledged ONC’s direct support for the upcoming concert, humorously suggesting it could also be the day Bugembe reveals his “missing rib,” drawing laughter from the room.

In support of the show, ONC purchased tickets for three VVIP tables, further cementing its commitment to the artist’s milestone event.

Pastor Bugembe, in turn, thanked Hajjat Namyalo for her warm reception and inclusive leadership, describing her as a unifying figure who welcomes all Ugandans regardless of tribe or religion.

“This is the second time I am meeting Hajjat Hadijah. The first time happened during the Dr Bbosa book launch. She spoke words that drew admiration for her style. I thank her for welcoming all regardless of religion or tribe,” he said.

Pastor Bugembe, who continues to inspire millions with his music and pastoral ministry, closed the meeting with a prayer for Hajjat Namyalo, asking God to protect and guide her work through ONC.

The concert is expected to attract thousands of fans and dignitaries, celebrating two decades of gospel music, hope, and resilience.
