Museveni kicked off his Ankole campaign swing by promising more roads and farm support while flexing about how he used to roll through the area strapped but showed up this time in party colors without any weapons. The president name-dropped infrastructure wins like the finished Mbarara-Kikagate-Isingiro route and said connecting rural zones will help banana growers move product more easily once irrigation gets sorted.
He pushed back on the idea that government gigs are the answer for employment when there are only 480,000 public jobs for 50 million people, and he pointed at the Mbale Industrial Park, cranking out way more positions through private sector manufacturing. Museveni doubled down on the Four-Acre Model and announced fresh funding streams for everyone from boda drivers to religious figures while handing out party flags to local candidates at a rally packed with supporters.
