Hakim Kyeswa, a rising political figure and aspiring Central Executive Committee (CEC) member of Uganda’s ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM), has secured a major victory in the party’s ongoing internal elections. He was elected as the NRM Publicity Secretary for Mukono District, marking a significant step in his growing political career.
Kyeswa, whose campaign for the position of NRM Vice Chairman for Central Region under the 2025–2030 term has already gaining fame, celebrated the win as both a personal milestone and a testament to the confidence the party base has in his leadership and communication abilities.
“This victory is not just about me — it is a signal that the people of Mukono are ready for a new generation of proactive, engaging, and transparent leadership within the NRM,” Kyeswa said in a statement following his election.
The elections, which are part of the broader NRM grassroots structure renewal, drew attention across the Central Region, with Kyeswa’s campaign resonating strongly due to his emphasis on inclusivity, youth empowerment, and the party’s ideological clarity.
In his campaign for CEC, Kyeswa emphasizes his slogan “Nothing for us without us,” capturing his vision for participatory leadership that bridges the gap between the party’s top leadership and the grassroots.
As the new Publicity Secretary, Kyeswa will be responsible for spearheading communication strategies, mobilizing support across the district, and strengthening the party’s image ahead of the 2026 general elections.
Political analysts view this win as a strategic springboard for his broader ambitions within the NRM’s top decision-making body. With Mukono being a key district in Central Uganda, Kyeswa’s role will likely place him at the forefront of the party’s outreach and policy messaging in the region.
As the party prepares for a competitive CEC election, all eyes are on young and dynamic leaders like Hakim Kyeswa, whose message of unity and grassroots involvement continues to strike a chord with party loyalists and undecided voters alike.
