Kazo District has become a model of unity and cooperation within the National Resistance Movement (NRM), painting a positive image for the party in the region. The spirit of teamwork among party leaders has inspired confidence among supporters and reaffirmed the strength of the NRM.

Kazo, widely recognized for producing strong cadres and distinguished leaders, continues to build on the solid foundation laid by veteran politician Hon. John Nasasira. As a respected figure in the NRM and across Uganda, Nasasira has been instrumental in shaping the development of not just Greater Kiruhura but the entire nation. His legacy continues to influence unity and progress within the party.

The current leadership in Kazo, including area Members of Parliament Hon. Dan Kimosho and Hon. Jenifer Muheesi, LC5 Chairperson Rev. Samuel Mugisha Katugunda, and NRM Chairperson Nkeija Wilson, demonstrates exceptional coordination in implementing government initiatives and promoting the NRM agenda.

As the NRM election season gains momentum in Kazo District, candidates have been duly nominated to contest for various positions. Notably, all key leaders are united in their call for party cohesion and grassroots mobilization. During the ongoing NRM primaries, Hon. Dan Kimosho, Hon. Jenifer Muheesi, and LC5 Chairperson Rev. Samuel Mugisha Katugunda have come together as a team to rally support for the NRM and President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni.

Hon. Dan Kimosho made a bold statement during the campaign rally at Kazo Model Playground where Hon. Muheesi officially launched her campaigns emphasizing their commitment to rallying support for the NRM. He highlighted the importance of teamwork, stating that the strength of the NRM lies in continued unity. He urged the people of Kazo to vote 100% in support of President Museveni.

Hon. Jenifer Muheesi also expressed gratitude to the people of Kazo for their unwavering support and thanked President Museveni for his commitment to the district.

Kazo, as a relatively new district, requires strong collaboration to achieve its development goals. The leaders’ unity has become a beacon of hope and a source of political strength in the region.
