Hundreds of women under the National Resistance Movement (NRM) Women’s League, together with members of the Youth League in Rwampara District, have declared their full support for Hon. Molly Asiimwe Musiime, the Woman MP, who is running as an independent candidate in the 2026 general elections.
According to these women and leaders and youths, Hon. Asiimwe has championed numerous development initiatives that have transformed Rwampara District highlighting her efforts in lobbying for provision of piped water, seed schools, improving road infrastructure among other projects.
According to Namumpa Gloria, the Publicity Secretary of the NRM Women’s League in Rwampara District, Hon. Molly Asiimwe has championed a strong development agenda focused on improving infrastructure, expanding access to clean water, and enhancing women’s livelihoods across the district.
“We are standing with Hon. Molly because she has worked for us. She brought water projects, supported women’s groups and ensured that our daughters go to school. We cannot abandon her now” Namumpa said.
”When you look at the roads, the schools and even the hatchery project, those are her efforts. She deserves another chance to complete what she started. Hon. Asiimwe has served us diligently under the NRM banner. If the party has not given her a fair chance, the people will support as an independent and we are going to deliver this message to other people across the Rwampara that Asiimwe remains our candidate” she added.
Namumpa further disclosed that Hon. Asiimwe has committed to establishing a women’s bank in Rweibogo Town Council—one of several pledges she has made to empower communities in Rwampara District. She urged residents to rally behind Asiimwe, noting that her initiatives are designed to promote financial independence and inclusive development for women as well as youths.
In a recent interview with the media, Hon. Molly Asiimwe reiterated her determination to complete the major development initiatives she started in Rwampara District. She noted that several key road projects—among them the Nyakiraguju–Bugamba–Kitwe and Ruti–Mwizi–Kabuyanda roads listed under the National Development Plan IV—are yet to be tarmacked and remain a top priority.
The legislator also disclosed that the Mwizi–Kabura water project, a critical system expected to improve access to clean water for residents, is set to commence in the next quarter. Additionally, she confirmed that multiple seed schools, which she successfully lobbied for, are awaiting construction to enhance education in the district.
Beyond major infrastructure works, Hon. Asiimwe underscored her focus on community empowerment programs, including an energy-saving stoves initiative currently being piloted in one parish with plans for district-wide rollout. She also mentioned the establishment of a hatchery project designed to strengthen poultry farming and household incomes.
Asiimwe emphasized that her bid for re-election stems from a desire to see these projects completed, ensuring that the people of Rwampara fully benefit from her ongoing development agenda.
