Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 73749, member: 636"] Former Tororo Municipality lawmaker Sanjay Tanna is hanging up his political jersey and backing his kid, Shyam, for the parliamentary seat as an independent. The elder Tanna held the spot for two terms between 2006 and 2016 under NRM before stepping back, and he told supporters at a campaign kickoff that he got old and wants younger people running things. He previously ditched party primaries and endorsed the current rep back in 2021. Shyam is promising to push for youth jobs, better hospitals, and fixing schools while complaining that rivals keep trashing his campaign materials around town. Local NRM mayoral candidate Benard Ochieng said the municipality needs someone who can actually lobby for cash because streetlights are busted, roads are garbage, and health services are falling apart.
