Hon. James Mbahimba, the Kasese district NRM chairman, has congratulated the six political candidates who came out victorious in the just concluded parliamentary elections.
Mr. Godfrey Mbabazi, the Kasese district Returning Officer on Friday and Saturday last week declared, Hon. Ferigo Kambale as Member of Parliament for Kasese Municipality, Hon. Sowedi Kitanywa for Busongora County North, three new comers including, Mr. David Mulindwa for Busongora County South, Dr. Julius Monday Rude for Bukonzo County East, Ms Sarah Ithungu as the district woman Member of parliament.
Dr. Crispus Kiyonga who was re-elected the Bukonzo County West MP on his third attempt, emerged the only directly elected Member of Parliament with 36,899, the largest number of votes compared to his counterparts, save for the Kasese district woman MP elect. Hon. Mbahimba speaking1……..
He used the press briefing at his country home in Scheme Ward in Nyamwamba Division of Kasese Municipality to reaffirm that his warning against the purported job sale by the District Service Commission two years ago, was necessary as a concerned citizen, and should therefore not be misinterpreted by those he called selfish opposition politicians.

Referring to the above, Mr. Mbahimba asked Mr. Geoffrey Bigogo, the FDC’s flag bearer for the district local council five seat to look for other excuses than his public utterances; thus, commending Mr. Eliphaz Muhindi for boldly opening war against corruption by the District Service Commission and embezzlement by civil servants, the reason some of them want him out of office. Hon. Mbahimba speaking2…….
He asked the people of Kasese to vote for Mr. Muhindi, an NRM member he says, will easily collaborate with the six Members of Parliament from the ruling party. END
