The Common Man’s Party (CMP) presidential flag bearer, Mubarak Munyagwa, has teamed up with two of the party’s parliamentary candidates — Joshua Mutekanga of Busiro South and Javiira Nsamba of Makindye-Ssabagabo — to strengthen grassroots mobilisation ahead of the forthcoming general elections.
The trio traversed parts of Wakiso and Makindye-Ssabagabo, urging residents to embrace CMP’s vision of fairness, equality, and empowerment for the ordinary citizen.
CMP uses the large flat bowl, locally known as lusaniya, as its symbol.
Mutekanga, who is contesting the Busiro South parliamentary seat under the slogan “National Interest, Not Self-Interest,” pledged to prioritize youth employment and skills development.
He said his leadership will focus on creating opportunities that empower young people to become economically independent.
“The youth are the engine of our community, but many remain idle due to lack of jobs. My leadership will focus on empowering them to become self-reliant and productive citizens,” Mutekanga told supporters in Wakiso.
In Makindye-Ssabagabo, Munyagwa joined Javiira Nsamba, the CMP parliamentary flag bearer, to rally supporters and highlight the party’s commitment to equal representation across all regions.
“As the Common Man’s Party, we believe in equality and teamwork. My mission is to ensure that every candidate, regardless of their region, receives the support they deserve. We are all working for the same goal — to uplift the common man,” Munyagwa said.
Nsamba, who is contesting under the name Javiira Nsamba Lubadde, thanked Munyagwa for his solidarity and reaffirmed his dedication to improving livelihoods in Makindye-Ssabagabo.
“Our people deserve leaders who understand their struggles. I will focus on improving service delivery, supporting youth initiatives, and ensuring fairness in resource distribution,” Nsamba said.
The Common Man’s Party, one of Uganda’s rising political movements, continues to build momentum as it positions itself as a platform for fairness, inclusivity, and social justice in governance.
