Capt. Mukula is gunning to retain his position as NRM Vice Chairperson, Eastern against home boy, Calvin Echodu, and Tororo’s Oboth Oboth Markson.

Like in every campaign, a candidate is expected to share a Manifesto that becomes a Covenant between him/her and the voters, something Mukula has not shied away from.

The manifesto embodies a vision anchored on consolidation of NRM’s ideological heritage, transformation of livelihoods, youth mobilization, and strengthening party structures for generational sustainability.

MANIFESTO

Preamble

In fulfillment of the mandate bestowed upon me by the National Resistance Movement (NRM) and in service to the people of Uganda, I present my strategic aspirations and work plan for the term 2025–2030 as a Member of the Central Executive Committee. This document embodies a vision anchored on consolidation of NRM’s ideological heritage, transformation of livelihoods, youth mobilization, and strengthening party structures for generational sustainability.

Four Key Pillars of Action

1. Ideological Reorientation and Patriotic Education

“Without ideology, politics becomes transactional. We must return to principle-driven leadership.”

• Roll out national civic and ideological clinics across all sub-regions to reawaken the NRM historical mission.
• Institutionalize patriotic clubs and NRM study circles in secondary schools, universities, and vocational institutes.
• Launch the Museveni Doctrine Series—a strategic compilation and dissemination of the President’s teachings across digital and radio platforms.
• Partner with NEC and OWC to establish ideological “model parishes” where NRM values are translated into tangible socio-economic outputs.

2. Economic Empowerment and Wealth Creation at the Grassroots

“A strong economy must begin from the bottom up—not the top down.”

• Spearhead enterprise incubation hubs at district level with a focus on agriculture, agro-processing, tourism, mining, and ICT.
• Champion access to affordable capital through SACCO reforms, Parish Development Model (

3. Strengthening Party Structures and Mobilization Machinery

“A party without a solid structure is like a house without a foundation.”

• Institutionalize zonal and district NRM performance dashboards to track service delivery, mobilization efficiency, and leadership responsiveness.
• Reinforce the Digital NRM Platform for member registration, real-time data analytics, internal communication, and e-learning for cadres.
• Build resilient structures from village to national level, including youth leagues, women’s councils, veterans’ wings, and diaspora chapters.

4. Harnessing the Youth Dividend and Digital Transformation

“The future of the Movement depends on how we mentor and integrate our youth.”

• Launch the NRM Future Leaders Academy to train 2,500 youth in public policy, governance, leadership ethics, and digital communication.
• Promote tech-driven agriculture, e-commerce, fintech, and digital media start-ups through collaboration with Ministry of ICT and Uganda Investment Authority.
