Grace Akifeza narrowly lost the NRM primaries to Rose Kabagyeni but she did not lose her will and has decided to jump back into the political pot on an independent ticket
The by-election seeks to fill the vacant Kisoro Woman MP seat following the death of Sarah Mateke, who served as the Woman MP and State Minister of Defense and Veteran Affairs.
Ms Akifeza has declared her intention to run as an independent candidate in the November polls in what could set the flickering embers in the post-NRM Primaries bursting to life.
In a meeting with NRM Chairman President Museveni, five candidates accepted to stand down with sources saying a compensation of Shs30 million per aspirant was on the table
