President Yoweri Museveni addressed thousands of supporters at Matany Grounds in Napak District on Thursday, concluding his campaign tour of the Karamoja region despite heavy rainfall. The National Resistance Movement candidate praised residents for supporting disarmament efforts that removed weapons from cattle raiders and thanked women who encouraged warriors to surrender firearms at Kangole.

Museveni outlined education improvements, showing Napak has 30 government primary schools and three government secondary schools, with five more under construction. He criticized school administrators who charge fees at government institutions despite his push for free education and promoted Presidential Skilling Hubs that train youth in furniture making and shoe production after six months.

The president promised health facility upgrades for nine sub-counties without clinics and pledged that every sub-county would receive at least one health center by the end of his next term. He urged families to adopt commercial farming through a four-acre model combining dairy, poultry and cash crops, citing farmers earning millions annually from milk and fruit production.

Napak received 17.83 billion shillings through the Parish Development Model for 17,867 beneficiaries across 57 savings groups. Museveni secured 94.1 percent of the votes in the district in 2021, with the number of registered voters increasing to 62,688 for the 2025 election.
