Forum for Democratic Change presidential candidate Nathan Nandala-Mafabi delivered a numbers-focused critique of government spending during campaign stops in Kitgum, arguing that systemic theft rather than insufficient resources keeps Ugandans impoverished. The economist and former Public Accounts Committee chairman pledged to recover 10 trillion shillings lost annually through graft and distribute 100 million shillings to each of the nation's 72,000 villages. His platform centers on restoring agricultural cooperatives, warehouse receipt systems and cotton production while dedicating 10 percent of budget allocations to farming sectors.

Mafabi promised equal salaries for all educators regardless of subject and committed to launching school meal programs after citing statistics showing 80 percent of students abandon their studies before completing primary education due to hunger. He vowed to upgrade regional medical facilities to national status and reduce motorcycle costs to 2 million shillings payable over five years to support informal transport workers. The candidate challenged voters to reject what he termed transactional politics, asserting that President Museveni cannot accomplish in five years what four decades failed to achieve, while accusing the administration of converting elections into patronage exercises.
