Kira, Uganda | Kira Municipality Member of Parliament, Ibrahim Ssemujju Nganda, has urged voters in Kira to support National Unity Platform (NUP) leader Robert Kyagulanyi for president after voting for him as their area MP.
In a message posted on his X (formerly Twitter) account, Ssemujju, who is affiliated with the People’s Front for Freedom (PFF), appealed to residents to make a strategic choice on polling day.

“People of Kira, on the 15th, after voting for me as your MP, go ahead and vote for Robert Kyagulanyi as your President,” Ssemujju wrote.
Ssemujju’s remarks signal growing cooperation among opposition figures as they seek to consolidate support against the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) ahead of the polls.
The outspoken legislator, who has represented Kira Municipality since 2016, is known for his strong criticism of President Museveni’s government and has previously called for opposition unity to bring about political change in the country.
The endorsement is expected to energise Kyagulanyi’s support base in Kira, a constituency widely regarded as an opposition stronghold.
