Serving on the Parliamentary Committee on Education, Nzibonera pledged to prioritize service delivery, particularly in education and health.

Her re-election marks continuity in leadership for the district, with supporters expressing optimism that her experience in Parliament will further benefit service delivery and development initiatives across Kitagwenda.
